Columbia City, Indiana | Anybody raised millet for extra feed?
I planted about ten acres in wheat stubble, baled it a little over a month ago. Got 37 4x5 round bales. Cattle didn’t care for it much when I started and like it less as time goes by. Fed 1 grassy alfalfa, 1 alfalfa, and 2 millet bales to 22 mamas on Saturday. They ate the alfalfa first and one of the 2 millet bales hasn’t been touched as of this morning.
It was baled wetter than I would’ve liked, and couldn’t wrap it because the guy who was going to wrap it said it was too cold and the plastic would rip if we tried. Thinking now I should’ve found another wrapper. Some of the bales do smell a tad musty in the center.
