So what do you think about all the cattle dying in the US?

Mostly its cattle getting stuck in the mud, then freezing temperatures help kill them and they bloat up and die. Then haybales are like 250-350 dollars and on our farm they get fed 50 bales a week. Just yesterday we learned of some "Dead cattle compensation thing where the government tries to help reimburse for dead cattle. So I went around yesterday and took pictures of 25-30 of our cattle that's died for it. Is it weird I kind of enjoyed doing that? oh wells

Really 50 bales a week

@smileylovesgaming Yes, or more sometimes. 2000 acres and 500-1000 head of cattle

@pride49 how much of that 2000 acres is just for hay

@smileylovesgaming I don't know lol You'd think we'd just stop with cattle and just sell hay.

@pride49 sure you would make a lot more money with hay if it is 250 to 350 a bale. Not sure what a cow cost these day's

@smileylovesgaming Less than what feeding them is worth I'm sure
