I handled/stacked/fed way too many of those bales way back when.

Now my father in law makes them just for fun.....at his Looks and Sounds of the Past Field Days.

That’s what my grandpa grew up feeding... Then they got a fancy square baker and from there te big round baler we use today...

I don't think my family ever did square bales, I think they went from a stack maker, like the one we had, to a New Holland Baler

I don’t care how I place at state as long as I make a trip... I always make memories I’ll never forget..

My first SilkieX baby... Either out of an Orpington Or Sumatra Rooster... Don’t think it’s from my Dom...

Got the heifers bred and put out to pasture with the cows..

And the Feeders we kept this year... they are around 950-1000(except the smaller black baldy) so it’s time to push the feed for 90 days... Consodered these were runts last fall I think they look pretty darn good. The growth rates on these SimmiX calves are the best we have ever had..
