    This was the most snow I’ve seen in one event, but not the worst storm. There was no wind, and it was colder than usual, so very light snow. The cattle are fine in this weather - the icy wet and windy stuff causes more worries. I had to work during the day yesterday, so my wife gave them a few small bales and plowed a few paths for them to get around on.

    That's amazing! I'm sure she's fine, but that cow looks piteous!

    She even chops ice! (-12 at 6:45am). (But really, I’m “the help”!)

    These yearlings had a barn to go under, but were out in the thick of it.

    Flamestead, glad y'all are able to make out good with all that snow. Most people who want snow / a lot of snow dont have to worry about feeding animals. The only reason I want any snow is for my little girl, and I want the snow gone quickly.
