I'm in Louisiana so feeding in winter is always muddy and messy and I would like to get a better system. I want to do this right the first time. My problems are 1 flat land with no sandy type hilltops to feed on. 2 pasture is open with only one large shade tree in the main section and a wooded bayou bank that provides shade and water but it's located on the end of the pasture.
I need a feeding area for winter and protection from extreme cold and heat.
I was thinking of building a pavilion type building about 50x50 on a concrete slab. I would build or buy heavy duty hay feeders that could be moved or slid out of the way to allow for cleaning the slab and the feeders could be placed along the north side of the building to provide a wind barrier in the winter and removed during the summer so it could be used as a shaded area.
What are your thoughts about this. Thanks
