Yesterday it was time to haul another large hay bale for the heifers in the south corral. I drove the tractor to the hayshed to get the hay fork for the tractor then over to the south corral to flip up the empty metal feeder. After I had done so I walked in back of the tractor and saw the right rear tire was flat.
What?!!
I was able to drive out of the corral over to the toolshed. Before Christmas I had bought myself an air compressor. It was needed as the rear tire is large. I pumped up the tire and quickly moved a hay bale to the feeder. I didn't know how fast the tire would lose air. This morning I checked the tire and it is still inflated. It may be a pound or two lower in pressure. The leak must be pretty slow. I'll keep an eye on it and wait for warmer weather. I have no idea what would cause a flat in such a big and thick tire.
