Selling the extra in your high dollar market, kinda makes buying some good used equipment look alright. What do you have for a tractor? I think I did k ow but I can't remember.hooknline":1ol1xmm2 said:I have a barn and will have no problem selling my excess for the going rate. I expect to use 100 this year. Maybe 120
Well, since you would need a tractor and all 3 pieces, paying that 18$ may be the way to go.hooknline":2zhizvqp said:A 40 hp mahindra. But I don't want to go into the hay business. Sounds like I should just hire it out and if it becomes a problem revisit the issue
Pretty much :nod:hooknline":3hghj3bv said:Grass is always Greener on the other side huh
We have baled our own hay since 1974, square baled back in the day. I sometimes wonder what I would do with my time if life did not revolve around baling hay.denvermartinfarms":3ocou7ic said:Well, since you would need a tractor and all 3 pieces, paying that 18$ may be the way to go.hooknline":3ocou7ic said:A 40 hp mahindra.

Since I bale my own I'm always thinking how it would be better to hire it done and put my equipment money into cattle, but I know as soon as I did I would be thinking just the opposite.
One piece I started feeding hay in October. It didn't get much rain. The rest I just started last week. Usually run through March 1 but that all depends on the rain tooBigfoot":2nzvmwkg said:Hook,
I always pictured you guys that far south of me as not having to feed much hay. When do you start feeding, and when do you stop?
And here in a normal year I feed from December first to sometime in march or early April. I always thought you would be feeding alot shorter season.hooknline":2x7chnvm said:One piece I started feeding hay in October. It didn't get much rain. The rest I just started last week.
