STOP WASTING HAY! | DIY round bale hay feeder from reclaimed wood and cattle panel

#hiddenoakshomestead #homesteading
We're a small family farm in the Florida Panhandle. After relocating back home from the Middle East we wanted to build up the most self- sufficient lifestyle possible with our kids, in order to grow as much of our own food as possible. Through raising livestock, tending to a garden, preserving food through canning and fermenting, learning about local fauna for medicinals and wild edibles, we are hoping to encourage others to do as much as possible for themselves through re-learning some of the forgotten "old" skills.

    Zach is learning so much, lovely boy. He is really growing, oh what a beautiful calf!!! Nice to use reclaimed wood. Zach is a great helper. He is learning some great skills. Someone has a dirty nose ... lol lol Funny he doesn't mind you using him for a work bench. Wow, this is so nice!!! You all did a great job and perfect for the little ones. What about the string on the hay? Great video!!!

    Good video of you all working together. Another option for your hay feeder is just being able to throw a tarp over the top of it too.

    Hey just a thought, if you could put a chain or strong rope on it and drag it around your pasture you could utilize the spent hay to help reclaim grasses in your pasture. good luck and be safe.

    The green netting is horrifically unsafe! ( why did you leave UT on the bale!? OMG!) •AND The bottom is very dangerous for a horses/mules legs and hooves!! And in addition: The fencing can catch up on any kind of halter, collar or even a fat head /neck of a goat, can be a disaster! We all want to find the answer but it needs to be safety for the babies in the design thought process 👍 above all!

    You're correct on the netting. It must ne removed for animal safety
