Thanks Pat. It's amazing how one still has to skip about for the best pics, and to avoid accidents! . . . Alan

Yes, I really understand because I do, though I'm retired! It is so REAL - producing food is, after all, the primary function and reality of life on earth (that sounds pompous, doesn't it?). . . . .Alan

That shovel is SO interesting!! Good one Alan, what happened to the backlights of the teleloader in the start of the video? Maybe a camera-fail.

I think they may have been brake lights, because they were on steady while he was dumping the silage. Driving, I suppose his feet were slipping on and off?

[williboy95]

@balmesh Maybe his braking-foot was very cold :-)

Great video, 5* those ladies sure love their silage, the loader with the clam bucket is a time saver handles the silage...

Yes, it has the advantage of being in front so you can see what you're doing. The feeders with the built-in grab have it at the rear, so you need to be good with the mirror!

I like the bucket idea on the tractor

great way to fee the cattle much easyer than years gone by.

Alan how many times do they get that feed per day? or week.

[balmesh]

To canvids1

Agreed. I believe he said once a day, because they did end up with a mighty pile of silage that they couldn't clear up straight away. . . . Alan
