[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1038269, member: 17767"] Kathie, how/why have you gotten into British White? I like the speckled color. I hear you about calving. I am building a feeding/calving area. It has been hot work. The main material is #2 gravel as a base and limestone/marble mine waste run which comes wet and sets up like concrete. It is free. I pay $150 to have it hauled. My total cost was $1,329.06. I still want to put in a wind/weather break. I plan to put sheets of probably exterior plywood on the fence near the rock pad so the cows can lay out of wind. It will provide a place to feed round bales and hold the cows and their calves in the calving season which corresponds to when I feed some hay. I do not feed much hay. Even though some of my fellow Kentuckians like Bigfoot have commented that they sometimes feed hay for 6 months of the year. My cows perfer to stay on pasture as much as possible. I will have a good size area to keep the cows out of mud. I get so tired of mud in the winter, I am doing this as much for me as the cows. [/QUOTE]
