have you always been that way @Alaskan ? or do you think the wintery months there make it more so or whatever? is it just those months in particular or a SAD type of moodiness?

Its been that way for me as well.... Usually after October it begins and builds till after december and January... February here is usually when the rains begin to fall... When the horses start to shed is when I start coming out of it.

have you tried lighting and stuff?
 
I'm never going to make money other then to support my habit. I like giving stuff away and sharing to dang much!

Same here, I don't even sell my eggs, just give them away

yesterday..might toy with seting up soem measurements n plans for what I wanna do..so I can do it without wasting my wood.........probly use 2by2's..but I would like to wrap the bottom in halved pvc pipe so it slides better easier...

Thats actually a good idea. You can also bend the pvc halves if you use a heat gun on them... Cut the pvc about a foot and a half longer than the two by fours. Screw the halves flat to the bottom of the two by fours and close to the end use the heat gun to warm the pvc as you bend it up .... It just takes a little to keep the pvc from catching on Grass rocks what ever.... Do both ends so you can either push or pull.

You will get a different answer for price all over the US. Depending on the state and region.... and how its baled. Here in Southern California we pay about seven bucks for a bale that runs about 90 pounds. It will be either wheat or oat or barly straw. Here in San Diego its mostly Oat straw.

I have never seen a round bale in person... They just dont bale it here that way.

Our bales are three strand bales.... Other parts of the country bale them in two strand bales... Round Bales will vary in diameter and weight depending on the machinery used....

its also good to ask what the bales weigh. that way you can make a comparison of price between different areas.

Our bales are heavy... and run about three feet by eighteen inches by twenty.... That style will be about:
80-90 pounds for straw
90-100 pounds for Oat hay
115-125 pounds for Bermuda
125-135 pounds for Alfafla
I dont buy orchard or Timothy for my animals because its pretty expensive here.
