Interesting. I try to leave a few inches gap between bales based on a suggestion from a long time dairy man I used to buy hay from. He says it lets the bales breathe. All net wrap is a pain to get off when frozen, is this worse?

I'll try to feed the outside stored bales first, then go to the shedded bales.

I like the way it holds the bales together.  In these huge fluffy windrows, the bales filled up so quickly I had trouble stopping quick enough once it hit the diameter setting. I had some get extra hay while wrapping. Once I figured out to watch and stop and inch or two diameter earlier it worked very well.  Only a couple rolled downhill into the fence... ;-)
