Haying is between cuttings here, but farm work continues.
One herd of cows on pasture
A couple yearling hereford bulls that we put with some straight black cows. This is a first for us.
What I run around on most the time. I'm running 13 acre feet of irrigation water at the moment, meaning, I can cover 1 acre, 13 feet deep in water in 12 hours. I put 40 miles a day on my 4 wheeler between irrigating and checking 4 herds of cows.
Going to start cutting oats next week. Just round baling it for cow feed.
The needs repaired list. From the right. The 7800 needs an oil change. The small baler needs the knives sharpened. The round baler has a flashing light that doesn't work. The Case needs a hydraulic line fixed. The 720 has a power steering leak. The 4040 needs a new radio. The mower has a bolt broken off in the swing mechanism. The balewagon needs a new door latch, and a cylinder rebuilt. I'll start on those projects tomorrow.
Today is Sunday, which means play day, so I'll be in the shop messing with old tractors. Maybe I should clean it up some too?
