Ok i do this. Take the bale to where your going to feed it. Stand it on end, cut the twines as close as u can to the frozen spot as possible so you can then take all the strings on the bottom because they are not frozen and tie them into a knot, you can even tie it twice. This keeps all the twines together and u r never pulling on just one or two twines at a time but you can still pull one at a time and not have to worry about dropping any of the other ones. They all stay tied together. It works for me. When you do have 2-3 inches of ice melted on top and down the sides of the bale I sometime will peal the outsde layer off and tie the wad of strings to a tree, and the cows do the rest of cleaning them off leaving the twine behind. For sure u want to double knot it in this case. Long winded Todd
