[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1191935, member: 18945"] Put out my first bales Thursday when the front was blowing thru--bahia and bermuda about done (especially the bermuda) and my winter stuff not ready to graze yet. Filled a feeder with 2-1 range meal too, tho they don't eat much of it ever. Cold air and rain in the forecast for next few days, especially Mon and tues I think it's going to be rougher on the cows than most Novembers are. As I said, I don't like Nov because too often, this means winter just gets here without a slow approach--suddenly it's here without an autumn and the cows don't have a chance to grow a heavier coat. I'm sure it doesn't hurt 'em as much as I think it might but we ain't getting much warm sunny afternoons, tho nothing really cold either. Probably colder on me and my old bones than it is them. Already wishing it was spring and winter hasn't even really started. -Inyati's is at least 1/2 full. My glass, is half empty- Frozen pipes and air leaks under the door. Higher electric bills from running the heating unit. Cold and flu medicines, sniffles and sneezing people everywhere. Muddy ruts from moving heavy hay bales, ruts hold water when it rains, making even deeper ruts the next bale that gets moved. The wind, cold and harsh always seeks me out. [/QUOTE]
