Yesterday feed went down from $68/ton to $48 per ton.
Today one of our drivers found good 1,000 lb round baled hay for $28 per bale.
This afternoon, our other three trucks left for Kansas to join up with the one already out there to bring back hay.
God willing, it looks like we will make it to the grass grows.
Now all we need is for cattle prices to go up a little and we will be back in the black.
Even the boss was smiling a little today.
Who knows, he might just have the last laugh for buying an additional 170 head last fall when we didn't even have enough hay to feed those we already had.
