I have been cutting 3rd cut alfalfa with a bit of grass in it and immediately baling it to feed green. Just enough for 2 -3 days at a time or it gets hot and spoils.

What I need to know is if I can still do that today since we had a heavy frost last night, or if I will kill cattle feeding it so soon after a frost. Does cutting it change the process and effects?

We had two dead calves a couple of weeks ago because they got into the alfalfa right after a frost and bloated. They were a couple of the earliest born calves . . . . Don't need any more of that.
