[QUOTE="Nite Hawk, post: 984586, member: 18682"] I think alot may depend on your climate and local weather. If it is dry and moderate temperature and you have a bit of pasture for them to lay on. Probably the easiest.Don't have to pick up the "plops", other than maybe going over it with a harrow. When you have cold & muck they need a dry decent place to lay down so they don't get a chill.They can handle pretty cold weather if they are not laying directly on the ice cold ground which basically sucks the body heat out of them, and may pre-dispose towards pneumonia, and stiff legs from the cold.. You can see it when they lay on the ice cold ground and get up,you can see they act stiff. [/QUOTE]
