Lucky you  :)  We are trying to get ours made, between rain showers and ever changing forecasts.  It's looking good at the mo but who knows?  Tomorrow is alternately supposed to be dry then heavy rain.  I've never known the forecasts to be so wrong and changed so frequently.  If this lot works we still have another half to cut and make.  If it doesn't work, I may come back to you  :)

Is it ryegrass or a mix of grasses?
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Hi Clydesdaleclopper - sorry for my ignorance so this may not be correct but the top paddock I believe is ryegrass and timothy and the bottom area about 60 bales has more clover in it - I was just going to try out with the sheep and goats to see what they liked - the goats are so fussy probably wouldn't make any difference. Thank you for your interest - sorry for being a beginner!! Clare

No worries. I just have to be very careful with my horses as they are all heavies and too much ryegrass can make them laminitic.
