Flaking

I moved another large hay bale for the cattle today.   The twine had rotted and came apart on the bottom letting some hay flake off when I lifted the bale off the wood pallet.  The twine was not plastic.  It's... I don't know... natural.  And more susceptible to rotting.  I think the twine started rotting when Dan stored the bales at his place.

I got a pitchfork and a wheelbarrow and gathered the hay up and took it to the feeder for the cattle.  Hay is too expensive to waste.  And I want to make sure I have enough hay to last the Winter.
