It would be a guess for me but I would say 4 maybe 5 big round bales.

I use 3% of their weight per day in hay and it works out about right. maybe 2.75% is closer but I want to err on the high side so they don't run out while I am gone.
You wanna watch those 2 500lb calves Jim. They really eat the hay pretty quick. I'm sure not even you are gone a month in the winter time. ;-)
