I am almost finished fencing in hay ground that I planted 5 years ago, lots of grass has come in and the alfalfa is thinning. Never liked this feild for hay cause its kinda in a hole surrounded by trees and always was a pain to get hay dry in a normal year. Its pretty high, about knee high in some places. I plan on letting them have an acre at a time through temp fencing and this 8 acres should last my 9 well into fall. What caution should I take so they dont bloat on me? The alfafa isnt as lush as it would be in the spring. And, is there a deal with alfalfa and frost? Seems like I heard there is a toxic problem with it for a couple of days with the killing frost.
