Here are some pics of how we feed the purebred herd.
dragging the home built bale feeder to a fresh spot.
built this three bale feeder out of perforating guns. fits 40 head at a time
we then roll a bale or two out on the ground to supplement the feeder so we can feed every couple of days depending on the temp.
cows seem to clean up the rolled out bales very well and then move onto the bale feeder
having the rolled out feed insures that the bred heifers can also get a share
