Feeding with horses in SK

[little bow rancher]

Hello this is D'.
Here are some pics. of feeding in SW SK

This is two round bales cut in half using a hay saw.

Heading out.

Most of the cows and a couple of the horses.

More cows and horses.

Hired help trying to fork off the hay so that everyone can eat.

We belonged to a driving club in Maple Creek and for a fundraiser for the children wish foundation we did a wagon trek from MC up to Murrydale. It was about a 4hr trek cross country. This was one of our members wagons and little bow on the reins with a sponsor. The mares we have since sold.

Beautiful SW SK sunrise.
Hope you all enjoy!!

Here is a haysaw on Ebay. I don't know if this is what is being used, but it should be in the general category.

Fun pictures of feeding cattle that is becoming more extinct all the time. Growing up my uncle fed hay with six horses. It was a massive job to harness all the horses and they were so smart they could just be let go on the fed ground and with voice commands would go in the direction my uncle wanted.

I see cattlearmy beat me to the post. I had to take a picture of ours.

This is little bow favorite tool. I have used it to cut cores in half and it isn't that hard. (I am only 5'1" and barely 100lbs) you just let the saw do the work!!
