Hay supply

We were getting a bit stressed before last weekend that we were down to the hay scrapings off the floor in the hay loft. We have several arrangements with local farmers which had been interrupted by snow. Then two of them delivered within a couple of days if each other so we had a bale straight in the field for the cows and 7 bales put in the barn for sharing between the horses, sheep and cows. The rabbits are still eating hay that we made ourselves - we are looking forward to being able to make a little more hay this year with the two wheel tractor. But it will still not be anywhere near enough for the amount that 2 horses and 4 cows guzzle.
Not a very good picture, but we are very happy to look in and see it so full.
