I left the cattle this morning with maybe a half a days worth of hay in the hay ring. I am getting tired of a pile here and there since they always seem to be almost out before I head to work. I figured this time I would make them clean up the bottom but am having second thoughts. I have never had them go through a fence yet and everything is iced over but I sure don't want this to be the first time. There is snow and ice covering the ground everywhere and even if there wasn't there is not really anyplace for them to go but electric doesn't work too well in ice. They were hollerin' at me this morning so I know they are expecting a bale.
When it gets this low they push the ring around and then end up making a mess or laying and crapping on it.
So, it is about an hour round trip if I decide to go put hay out, and I don't get an hour lunch.
They've never missed a meal in their life so I have no experience with it, I might not make it home until late with kids going to soccer etc.
Worried for nothing?
