[Jacob-list] feeders

[Margaret]

I am experimenting with stock/cattle panels as feeders.  I clip or tie the 
panel at each end close to a field fence wire.  I drop a flake of hay every 
foot or so.  It is working very well so far.  They can't get their horns in 
and they don't get hay in their fleece.  The hay is essentially vertical 
between the panel and the fence, so they cannot get their head in.  I need 
to figure out how to refine this before the rains come.
