Odds of the BIG Guy on Opening Day?

I've been looking back at the biggest of the Big Bucks and noticed that over half of them were taken within that first month or so. We always laugh that our youngest and our oldest hunters are the ones that brave those first few hot, hot weeks!But by the looks of it, that sweat might just be worth it if you are after the big one.

And other times I know it is.

Sometimes I think this is why we bale hay on Selkirk!

And stacked again to wait for cold winter days!

And unstacked.

and moved to the barn

Stacked on the trailer

The bales have to be moved from the field.

And spits out the bale

Then the baler comes

And more...

More rows

Cut hay is raked into long rows.

Be careful when you bring lunch to the hayfield! My new view...

The view from the hay fields makes the work easier!

And these are the yellow chicks now!

To all of you who missed the hatching, check out the late March blog entries. We're hoping for eggs in fall.

The brown chicks look like this.
