Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot | I don't put any up, but most of what I feed is 3x4x8's. I'd rather feed our 3 tie bales, just easier to feed for smaller herds. The biggest problem is if you are only feeding part of a bale. If your feeding a bale or more/day of the same hay, it isn't that big of deal.
Most everyone I know builds units in the field, and then loads on trucks or trailers of some sort to get to the stackyard/barn. Unload and stack in the barn with a squeeze. You can do the same thing with a spear rather than a squeeze, just takes a little longer. An accumulator on the baler will help speed things up immensely. How far from field to barn?
We just flake the bales off on the ground. Like you said, one guy (or a kid or dog) driving the pickup, and another guy flaking hay off. Newhouse makes a really nice, and really expensive feeder. Robbins equipment is supposed to have something quite a bit cheaper that just flakes the bales off as well. | |
