this winter has been a bit tough out here in ct lately and w/ a few extra cows i didn't plan on feeding for the winter, i am going to need to buy some extra feed. i currently feed grain probably too much and hay small squares that i put up myself. i am thinking about getting some wrapped rounds of baleage, but i am trying to figure out the best way to feed them out. i have been told you can just put them out in the pasture and open a few holes around the plastic wrap and cut the stings and pull them out and the cattle will just eat what they want, and as the bale gets down in size you just take away more of the plastic. my idea was to take the plastic off and unwind them w/ a pitch fork and place the baleage into my current outdoor feeder. or should i just get a cheap round feeder and take the plastic off and let the cows have at it. i have never fed round bales yet, as we usually just feed grain and hay, but we used to feed corn silage yrs ago, b4 the corn field we rented became mcmansions. thanks for any insight on this,jim
