Silage query

    Had one or two cows broke into a field that i've been saving for silage. They were in it overnight so there will be a few cow sh*ts there.

    My question is - if I wrap this in a silage bale is the bale kind of ruined?

    If only a couple of cows for one night I’ll bet you’ll never even notice it in any of the bales.

    Just make sure they stay out, once they get the taste of the grass its hard to keep them out.
    I wouldn't worry about the bit of ****e from 1 night, sure you'd see lads strip grazing ground where the cattle have to eat all the grass before the fence is moved, they would then be eating grass that they have pissed and ****ed on

    What about bales pegged by birds?

    Say if they are stacked and tape the top ones, would there be much damage to the bales then?

    If you can get a hedgecutters, shovel and a bag to take it out. Happened here before.
