Tractor could drag them.....???

I thought about dragging them with the mule, but I’d like to lose about 5 pounds, was burning calories!!!

Working with roughly 7000 meters of fiber each night, I do a lot of random knot tying. Of all the things I've had to teach my trainees, tying a knot is the one that continously eludes them. I think that it's the years & years of using haystrings for almost all repairs that got me those skills.

Your shelter looks GREAT!!!! Somewhere I have a picture where I used feed bags to cover the wire door to my coop. It did indeed make a lovely, snug windbreak.
Yes, of course I remember your 'bit at a time' advice . Good advice that's going to work well for us both

I love hay strings. They come in all colors and southern California 4-H animal keeping areas are routinely held together and repaired with those colorful strings! LOL

We saved them for repairs and I brought a whole box of them with me to Texas since the rolled bales here don't have strings. I have to spend actual money on zip ties!

OMG.....life without hay string??? Well that repair material is a big part of hay value can't imagine the loss. I use it everywhere. We all do. I even have some long stuff that's used to tie the 21 bale bundles from a friend who buys trailer loads to sell. Mine is mostly blue or white.

I have orange string that comes with my straw bales. I've been collecting it in a plastic grocery bag, hanging on a nail in the shed...
