[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1218408, member: 17767"] I appreciate what Bez is saying. I know Anne and her family love their cattle and maybe have a difficult time providing the best facilities. I have spent a lot of money that I doubt that I will get back for several years. I have good feed areas and my cows stay clean. Where I put down hay, I have a bed of #2 crushed stone choked off with limestone "mine waste run". The bed sets up much like concrete. Several times a winter, I use my FEL to push off the waste. Then I roll out a roll of hay for them to eat and bed on. There is always the odd cow that will find a nasty spot to lie in. That is going to happen. But I just took a picture yesterday after I pushed off the area where I put out my hay roles. The pics are below. There are only a couple cows at the ring. There are a total of about 13 cows who are due in the spring in this herd. There is another herd that is in the breeding paddock away from the bull. I keep them a clean area to bed down.
