[QUOTE="Aaron, post: 586687, member: 1682"] We have really culled hard this year. High fuel and fertilizer made us think early in the year that the the girls that stay with us this winter better be worth it. As a result, we went from having not enough feed, to just enough feed and are now in the position of having hay in excess for the number of cows and backgrounders we are feeding :cboy: . I have a feeling that there will be another good cull, on the fall cows come spring. Add to that, we had a great pasture year and we ended up stockpiling about 40 acres of hay and pasture that we will use to extend the grazing season into December, unless we get too much snow :cowboy: . It was a poor haying year though, so we didn't have time to get much fencing done and are just hoping we can prop the fences up enough to get by this year. I would estimate we have about 3 miles of fence that is in immediate need of replacement, but won't happen. :frowns: [/QUOTE]
