Grinding grain

I've mentioned that Dwayne (and sometimes I) go to feed the "Kindergartners" and "Teenagers" (steers and heifers) once or twice a day. Jimmy has a "recipe" that he mixes and it came time to grind some of the grain last week. Dwayne got some pictures...

Corn coming from the hopper - the corn was acquired from neighbor Edward

From the hammermill the ground grain and ground hay goes into the mixer and ultimately into a storage container from which Dwayne scoops buckets of meal twice a day for the steers and heifers.
