Nice to see the bull was making the bed for all the ladies. 🤣I think they were all happy to come in for the night. Should be nice and toasty once the bedding starts composting. 🥰

The cows all lined up to come in when they saw me bedding the barn!

I would think some wood chips about 4” deep as a base would allow airflow and cause less problems than straw or low grade hay. Then put your sawdust layers on top of wood chips.

We thought about trying that. We where worried about using green wood. Sounds like it might cause mastitis. Not sure the hay will be any better though.

Using a manure spreader to spread wood chips is genius. 😅

Great video as always! Sorry if I missed it, what is your plan to “finish” off/cover OSB/framing where heifers to be? Looking for ideas of my own to protect untreated lumber and cleanup.
@balfourfarm5 күн бұрын
We plan on boarding the inside with rough cut pine boards. The outside will be metal. The heifers will chew holes in the osb given the chance.

Do you think you will have to wait longer before you Roto till the pack because of the Hay? As always really love your videos well done team.

Most likely. Last year we used straw and could roto till fairly easily. I don’t think we can do it with the hay.
