How do you feed from those? The bales "flake", and say for a meal a horse gets a 5-6 inch flake(a 6 in thick X-section of the bale).

We full feed so I just stand a bale upright inside a metal ring and it unravels as they eat. That's what the pavilion is for, for the last few years I've been feeding out in the open and the rain falling on the bales in the ring makes them mold before they can eat it all. Makes for a lot of waist.

How long would a roll last for say 10 cattle?

Check this one out. You can have different temp settings for each of the four probes.

This is my baby and I love it dearly. It has a low temp warning too and its signal carries through my entire house, not limited to the bluetooth distances I can go all over my house etc....

PS I started with a Maverick ET-7 when they first came out and used it until it died just a few months ago.

They can be kept out in the weather since they shed off most of the rain, the big squares act like a sponge and mold all the way through.

That and with round bales you use a tractor to handle them. The square bales you have to have someone handle them.

Been meaning to ask this for years; why do you mid westerners have those giant hay rolls instead of bales like we use out west?

The huge ones go to mushroom farmers.
