    Bale Grazing Revisited

    Always been interested in bale feeding and swath grazing. I have wanted to try swath grazing, but since we start cutting by June 20 most years, I worry about the hay bleaching, wasting and rotting away before Winter. Most times, if we end up getting hay rained on, and you can't get it dryed...

    Wyoming Fence?

    Wife's was built on the Continental Divide between Butte and Helena in about '80, we replaced a few rails in the last 5 years as some have started rotting, but they were only 3" poles. Held up good for us. 4 on one side, one on the other. Cross-brace every now and then on the single pole...
