I'll try to reply again tonight. Last night I typed up a big response, spent about an hour. When I hit submit, the forum told me I was a suspected spammer so it canned my post!! Arrrrgggghhhhh!!!!
OK, so I guess the silo option is out of the question?? What keeps it from heating up in a stack outside??
You guys already answered my next question about the best way to chop. I was debating a flail chopper or silage chopper, I have both at my disposal, I guess I'll go with the silage unit.
Somebody mentioned blowing it into the mow. What keeps that from heating?? I'm asking that, not to be a smart a$$, but because I really want to know. (I put it in bold print so it wouldn't be overlooked.)
I'm trying to avoid outside stacks, just because of convenience. We have two kinds of winter here, cold with lots of snow or warm and rainy without frozen ground. I don't think I want to be fooling around with bedding outside with either weather option.
One of the high points of my silo plan was lack of labor needed at a busy time. I figured two people could handle the job OK, small bales would take a couple more. Big rounds are out because of the way the barns are set up.
Keep brainstorming guys, I appreciate the help/knowledge.

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
