[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 614218, member: 1715"] I have over 500 round bales on a remote farm with no winter water, minus 17 F., and knee deep powdery snow. It is fenced but some of the fence is single strand hi tensile. I am planning to use the pay loader to clean out a couple lanes this week and then trailering over some dry cows - - rather than hauling bales to them. :idea: I am told that cows "learn" to eat snow after a couple days if there is no winter water available. Any transition tips, or previous experiences, with cows making a break for it trying to find their heated Richie waterer. :( [/QUOTE]
