The boys finished up corn silage to day. We did fill the silos but only put up two 300 foot bags rather than the usually 5-6 bags.
The cattle yards at the farm will be in use but the yards on a farm we rent will be empty this winter. That way we will not have to go there to do chores everyday.
We have calves lined up from several different suppliers. The boys will be custom feeding for a couple of fellows. I have lined up some late spring calves out of North Dakota. They will arrive in early November. Plus my own calves. That will keep me out of trouble.
