    Beef for Dinner & for the Future

    Overrun with Jack Rabbits

    We've been blessed with about 24" of snow so far and with the horrible wind that came a few days after it has taken a while to get plowed out everywhere. I had been hauling from another stack and hadn't bothered to plow out to this stack. I had no idea the rabbits had been working this hard...

    Forage Testing ?

    The cows have a couple of weeks of graze left, so I've been looking for some other pasture possibilities. I found a neighbor who has a couple of pivot circles that were planted to sudan grass, that he is willing to lease. He planted it late and it got maybe 12-18" of growth before he cut it...
