Today was hay delivery day. We got five big square bales – over a ton of hay. The adult rams, ram yearlings, pregnant ewes, and horses all got fresh bales. Moving to big bales helps us make feeding simpler, but it now also means that the tractor is required.
The pond is nearly thawed out – that’s unusual for this time of year. Our exceptionally long “January thaw” has meant low snowpack in the mountains. Grass is already starting to grow in the fields.
