    When is it to late to drill CS wild bird blocks?

    Heavy rain again last night. Can not see the blocks being dry enough for at least 2 weeks if we get no more rain. If it stays wet, when is it to late to drill? Would you still get paid if not redrilled if it's not possible?

    Horses..

    Just an observation last night as driving home. Lot of horse paddocks on rough ground. At the moment lot I went past are just muddy bogs. Some right against the river.
