Well we are still at least a month and a half from grass and an inventory shows that we ain't gonna make it with what hay and other feed we have.
Buying hay is out of the question with prices ranging from 10 cents/lb. and upward because of the dry weather here last year.
So I'm getting in a load of oat straw at 5 cents, which I have already been feeding half and half along with what hay we have.
I could also sell the calves and use their stockpile for the cows but I don't like the markets right now.
The thing of it is that if I would have sold the hay and oat/barley/peas baleage last fall along with the cows and calves, we would have as much money in hand as what the new calf crop will be worth. Go figure . . . :lol:
