[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 236180, member: 968"] rkm - we don't own ANY hay equipment. Hire it all done. For the amount of hay we put up, does not pencil out to own our own. All first cutting put up wet - try to put up 2nd cutting dry - big bales. We buy around 300-400 small square bales (wagon loads out of fields) for our show cattle that are in the barn and for our cows for the short time period that they are in the barn during calving. That way we can pick good hay that hasn't gotten rained on. :P Got 3 INCHES yesterday & last night :shock: not raining at the moment, but calling for heavy rain again this afternoon. Now, rain doesn't stop up from haying (baleage) but this much might make some serious ruts in the fields :shock: Actually, we should have enough for our winter feed now - without 2nd cutting (if we get any - haven't gotten any last two years because of dry weather - grazed what little grew).
