Thanks for all the reply's. It is oat hay, It was really tall so it is kind of coarse. The cows lick it all up. The horses do not clean it all up, they are used to alfalfa. If I feed it all to the cows it will save a few bucks. There are still a few bales in the field down at the coast, they might go bad. The baling was going really well so I was going to bale it all up but the press ran out of gas. Now I am glad I didn't. It will probably cure in the windrow in a week or so.
I have a hard time putting up hay, I commute between 2 ranches. Usually I cut and rake 5 days later. It is a cool coastal climate. I raked this 2 days later. If I wait until I get back it ends up being 7 days, too long, it gets too dry. I think I will go down and pop open those few bales and spread it out a bit. I noticed this morning the horses seemed to go after it better, I think a little heat puts a good cure on it.
