Rake aboot 4,936 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Nothing up here yet obviously. It`s been unbelievably wet up here, everything is feking 6 ft high. Dogs stumbled on a "game animal" this morning and the run nearly killed them, battering their way through chest high plants Quote Link to post Share on other sites

desertbred 5,490 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 even with the cut still a lot of half grown stuff around this early in the year. I know some stuff breeding nearly all year round but you have to give it a chance Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackdog92 2,047 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 A lot of people have been cutting grass up here not for hay but silage, none of the grain feilds have been harvested yet though. Had a walk round a bit of perm i have the other day and was up to my waist in crop much higher and i would loose the big dog. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PeskyWabbits 464 Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 Those with their own equipment are waiting for the second cut of hay/silage. Those who are in the queue are waiting for the rain to stop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
