Do you call it Hay?

[Rafter S]

Bale it. Or roll it (almost all the hay in my part of the country has been round bales for 30 years or so).

So when you get the crop (that you feed your cattle) laying on the ground and it's dried properly, do you bale it or wrap it?

I'd associate "wrapping" with plastic sheeting, not twin or net.

Me to, but I still call it penning cattle not pinning

Just had that discussion last evening. Seems that there are more producers going back to square bales. One of the factors mentioned was the amount of hay going to the horse farms. Round bales still are predominant.

BTW: they call them rolls here not bales. Plus, they say rolling your hay.

Most rolls are tied with twine. I never see netting.

That's the same word spelled two different ways.

So you write with a pin and hold things with a safety pen?

We usually roll it and bind with netwrap.

If I had a hay barn I'd stick with twine but since we store outdoors net wrap is superior.

There is a Cost Share hay storage facility on 1 of every 2 farms here. I would guess, it is the number one most common use of Cost Share money.

Big hands and a tiny key board. Sorry.

We don't pin anything unless it's on pinterest. We either "catch them" when were ready to haul or "catch them up" if we need them to stay in the catch pen for a while.

I think that's dun's point as well. A pen, in this context, holds cattle. The word "pin" isn't applicable.

Stop that gibberish.

 

[OldCrow]

Trying to think of words I have heard only here in Eastern Kentucky.

Poke means a paper sack.

Quarn- means a real nasty dirt. Like what you see between the cracks in the kitchen table.

Nary- like I don't have nary a penny.

No one here says Bathe. I am going to take a bath. Not I am going to bathe.

Pen is pin.

Tire is tar.

Fire is far.

I was once made fun of by a fellow for saying car tire(tar) and cell tower(tar) both tire/tower sounds the same but context gives it away. I quickly reminded him that a fellow from MS doesn't have any room to talk.
Let's just say I got the eraser or whatever was in my teachers hand thrown at me a lot in 5th grade English class and that is no joke. That is where I learned to Juke!

For me it was Mr Johnson. I swear he could throw that eraser (blackboard) so it would curve around some one else to hit his target.
