March - Big Island Dairy

The weather has improved a bit...still rain, but lighter and shorter in duration. When it isn't raining everything dries out fairly quickly. The steel buildings are going up and things are changing rapidly.

Loops and lockups.




The commodity barn, completed and in use.


Anxiously awaiting their new accommodations.



Location of first heifer shade.

Looking uphill from first shade location to where the others will be.









Gravel piles from rock crusher.


The Bedding Master from Daritech arrives.
It was a very TIGHT fit.

Compost building on the right preparing footings for the Bedding Master on the left.




Processing pit on the right (full of rain water), then compost building and footings for the Bedding Master.

You can just see the far edge of the lagoon around the hill.







Quite a piece of equipment.

Inside the Bedding Master.


It was hard to believe that it came out of that container.


Working on the lagoon.
