Rack N' Roll

.
The fly rub seems to be working effectively. We see more of the cattle using it and there appears to be less flies on their backs. Out on the pasture, we can't hang the rubs between two gate posts. Since fly rub racks are expensive (about $400+ to have one made), we needed to find a less expensive alternative.
.
Hay Racks - they're great to hang the cattle rubs from, and we already have four of them! Of course, when we move them "doggies" to another pasture, we have to move them racks, too! But that's easy with the tractor.

What we lack in resources, we make up for with resourcefulness.

Resourcefulness (vs. Wastefulness) - finding practical uses for that which others would overlook or discard. (from Character First)
