Still got some now. Got 6 Biotech hog barns. Put round 5x6 bale of straw in, cut the strings, if you're lucky it's only the top 6" thats frozen solid, try to peel that off, then unroll the bale down the barn turn it at the bottom push back up the other side. If you're unlucky you get 6 bales a day that are frozen solid and have a flat spot on so you struggle to push them and 180 hogs in the barn don't help either. Add the fact that you've probably got to dig snow to get the tractor out for 20 mins, chisel frozen crap to get the pig barn doors open, and deal with the end tarps, and the last 3 or 4 weeks its been Minus 20 oc and nearer 30-40 0c with wind chill. It's being a brutal job this winter. Regards Robert
