Dairy Squares

               If baling hay is done best on a hot August afternoon in Arkansas, yesterday was perfect!


Most of our hay is baled into large round bales to feed our dairy and beef cows  but we always need small bales to feed our young calves as they grow and mature.  

Ryan and Cody worked all afternoon  raking,baling and hauling  these dairy squares from the field  to the barn for stacking.
.

They also found that sometimes those square bales don't stay stacked!


Re-stacking dairy squares  was pretty simple with a 
little farmer muscle and his assistant with the  hay moving equipment.
So simple, in fact, that I made my way back to the house before getting put to work!
