Loading Up on Straw

With kidding season only six weeks away, it is time to stock up on straw! We took a new approach this year and ordered a semi load of large square bales so all the girls can have a nice, deep bed and we don’t have to worry about making a trip to buy more.

Clayton manned the tractor for almost four hours in the cold unloading 54 bales from the semi and stacking them in the yard before moving them into the arena for storage.
