This machine needs put to work. We have had an opportunity presented recently to put up some hay on shares in South Central MT, so we are toying with the idea of loading up and heading that direction for the remainder of the season. We’d like to find more acres to cut and bale. Give Jeff Habets a call at 406-450-1976. Thanks!

We are looking for summer pasture for 150 cow/calf pairs. June 15 through early/mid October. Our current grass is not available this year because of the drought and lack of water in reservoirs. We pride ourselves in a very docile, well mannered herd of cows. We don’t tolerate fence crawlers. We have references available from people we have pastured with before. We are really needing something for this year, but possibly long term as well. We are in the Conrad/Shelby MT area, but open to all options. You can message our page or call Jeff at 406-450-1976. Thank you.
