Are you getting any Monarch Butterflies on the Milkweed? I think we might have been a major stop over point for them when we bought our place but we had 1000's if not 10's of 1000's of them that first year and then I started getting rid of the Milkweed.

Saw a couple last year.
Haven't paid enough attention to tell them apart this year.

Met with a guy that makes hay & bushhogs. Lives 7-8mi away, but doesn't really want to haul his heavy equipment one by one out here. $30 per round bale, could make 40-50 bales in thick 18 acres. I only need 15-20 to last 365 days. I don't have room for that many to be stored, maybe 12 tops. No way for me to move/sell the rest, thus, I wanted it to be a share instead.
For bushhogging, $50 an hour, 2-3 acres of weeds I estimate. He can do that no problem. So, I'll schedule that to be done.
He does squares, too, but broke it last year. But they cost more because of the extra workers to move them all.

Rats. Maybe you need one so you can do some of this work yourself.
