How dry was those rounds?? At 5ft ours are average 300kgs
If bigger then yes weight gains fast at that circumference

They feel pretty damn dry, nice and crispy straw. Other than that I can’t tell you much more until winter!
One bale will bed up the cow and calf shed, where it takes 2 4ft bales so there’s plenty of straw in them. Had them for years from the same place, alway weigh heavy but very tightly packed bales
