[QUOTE="Logan52, post: 1799326, member: 32879"] Grass greened up here in mid-February, probably three weeks to a month earlier than usual. Since then we have alternated between cold and warm, with frequent frosts and freezes. During February and March we had a weekly wind event with gusts over 40 mph (up to 55 mph at its worst). The ground is hard a rock and pocked with cattle tracks despite a winter relatively free of mud. Grass is sparse and growing slowly. I normally have quit feeding by the end of the first week of April. They are still hungry and cleaning up what little hay I am putting out for them ( my hay supply is about gone). To sum it up: grass is about as pitiful as I have ever seen it for this time of year. We need some warm nights and gentle showers. I had intended to purchase some cow-calf pairs to supplement my own herd and give me a few more calves to sell this fall. Now I am glad I only bought one pair. [/QUOTE]
