We got 100 bales of hay delivered- should be enough til Spring! We had it delivered on the other end of the farm where there’s alot more room to unload.  Craig will have to move them closer to the winter paddocks soon.  We are going to put up temporary fence for the cows in the hayfields one more time before the snow flies.  That green grass will help fatten them up for the winter!  We also have to winterize the water system soon.  The vet is scheduled to be here in early November to give the calves shots.  Then we’ll wean them after that.  All our cows are looking very good this Fall- the grazing in the hayfields was a good idea, since we couldn’t get the hay up because of all the rain this summer.  The pregnant cows need good hay and nutrients to get through the winter.  The bull went home October 15th so we are able to stroll among the cows again.  Such gentle cows, and fun to watch!  And, the Fall colors are beautiful like always on the farm!
