Subject: RE: Did they use bale kickers (ejectors, throwers) in your area?



Cleveland, MS. Own small farm near Booneville, MS

I know what a kicker is but I have never actually seen one in operation. When my brother was in the hay business he had an attachment on his baler that left the bale laying on its side. He then picked it up with a New Holland hay mover that stacked the hay on the bed. All his hay was stored in sheds at ground level so it was a simple operation for one person to pick up the bales in the field, back into the shed, and leave the stack behind. His first bale mover was pulled by a tractor but he later bought a self propelled model. However, the self propelled model did not have a cab. He did eventually install an umbrella. I don't know the model of either of them but I believe the tractor powered one would hold about 55-60 bales and the self propelled model would haul about 75 bales. I think my sister-in-law still has one of them but I'm not sure which.
