is causing the problem.
mmmmm
i gather small square bales are hard to find ATM, along with hay generally; YO is getting big bale from people she knows
so the alternative would be haylage, and a lot of that is hard to deal with as well .. and then of course delivery is an issue.. doh.
anyway, i was given some assistance tonight on the feet picking front, and i got all the mud off the bottom half of his legs - i'd been slack at the weekend and not put the stuff on that stops it sticking (mud fever prevention stuff, creates a sort of slick coating and it slides off, if you apply it regularly!)
How big are the big bales? If you don't have to wrestle with them, it's OK, but if you do, then perhaps you need some help.
ReplyDeleteWe still have snow, so mud is not yet the issue. Never like to deal with that, especially on their legs. Glad you got Monfy clean though, and treated with stuff to protect him. Hope it all helps.
