The goats & sheep have been busy carving away at this latest round bale. They love to eat right into the center of the bale. Since the hay all pretty much looks & smells the same to me once you get beyond the outermost layer, I believe their preference has something to do with the fact
that we leave the baling twine on the bales & it might be easier to pull hay from the center. In another day or so, we'll have to go out & collapse the bale. As funny as it is to watch the goats poke their little heads deep into the core, it is also dangerous. We've got a friend who recently sent a ram off to the slaughterhouse after it was brain-injured by a collapsed bale.
