We still make "stupid bales"
We make about 40 acres into hay, usually cut around 13th june. Unfortunatley we get the odd leveret and pheasant brood but most of the animals are getting to a size they can get out of the way. Its nearly impossible to spot them when we cut the field.
Its a job I look forward to giving up a few hot summers evenings bale leading. Done it since I could lift a bale and despite it being hard work I enjoy spending the time grafting with my dad and brother while we still can.
We make it with 60yr old fordson majors and a 50yr old elevator. none of this black plastic waste at feeding time. Cant keep the horsey lot away!
