Whiskey, Tango, Foxtrot | I flip them on edge, load them lengthwise on the bed with about 4" hanging off the side the length of the bale. Cut the twine and it is pretty easy to flip flakes off. Most of it will bounce off when you hit a frozen cowpie. If they are flat, and none of it is hanging off, you are right, it is very miserable.
If you've got much to feed, just try setting the bales out. Only thing I won't do it with is alfalfa now. They just eat it up too quick. But grain hay, grass straw, wheat straw and cornstalks... just set a bale out. Don't even cut the twine. Just pick the twine up the next day if your feeding lots, or in a few days if not many cows. Works about like a self feeder. I was concerned about the twine, but it hasn't been a problem as long as it is kept picked up. | |
