Can the calf’s fit through the green bars?
Where did the panels come from
U need a top of the hay feeder keep the hay dry
How do you like it after using? Would you make any changes?
Hi Jim - Dennis shared the following: I love it! Our cattle are healthier and our pastures are healthier. There is less wear and tear on our equipment, and as a result, less stress, wear, and tear on me! I am healthier! There are a few changes I would make: 1) The manure storage needs to be a few more square feet, so I plan to increase that by 25. 2) The 6" curb that retains the manure could be 8". But I scrap it every two weeks so it is fine. 8" would give you an additional week between scrapings but that is being lazy. Overall it is a great addition to our operation. I should have put it in 20 years ago…
