We love it when it snows!
The cows were starving when it came time to feed hay that afternoon. They ran across the creek and swarmed around the hay David was putting out. Good quality hay is a necessity during these winter months as our pastures start to slow down their growth. We will feed hay for about another week and then move the entire herd to their winter grazing grounds down the road to about 200 acres of stockpiled fescue. Hay is great, but nothing beats pasture. The calves will be moved to wheat, oat and rye grazing on our other farm about 20 minutes away.
Wow! I just realized that our cows get to travel more than we do!
