Round Bale Carrier/Feeders
DUAL PURPOSE - SAVE LABOR, SAVE HAY
Here it is! A big bale carrier with quick attach 22 ft. feeder panels!
Side panels slide out to 11 ft. wide and swing open for EZ loading.
Low profile 26 x 12.00, 12 ply flotation tires for low comfortable feeding. Panels swing open for loading with 3 point hitch or front loader.
It's a breeze to move hay bales from field to feasting spot.
Cattle are well fed when winter pasture is snow covered! Cattle have 66 ft. of all around feeding area for hay, straw, or corn stalks.
Five days later...and ready for a refill! Side panels slide in to 5-1/2 ft. width as cattle push toward center. Photo shows total clean up except for a few scattered corn stalks.
Here's how herds of hungry Herefords n' Holsteins...save hundreds of happy herdsmen "heaps of hay".
Testimonials from cattlemen, and women, are saying their CF890 Bale Carrier Feeders are saving enough hay and labor to pay for themselves the first year!
The patented two-in-one CF890 has 22 ft. long feeder panels that slide out to 11 ft. wide when loaded. The panels then slide in to 5½ ft. empty width as the cattle press toward the center while feeding. Special hinges allow panels to slide freely, even when one end slides ahead of the other.
- The bale feeder loads easily without opening the side panels when using a front-end loader and a bale spear.
- The side panels hinge on one end and swing open with a Dolly wheel for loading with a 3-point rear bale spear.
- ...Or they are easily removed by pulling just one pin when used strictly as a bale carrier.
Four bale cradles are provided to feed up to eight 5 ft. or six 6 ft. bales at one time.
The self-cleaning cradles eliminate spoilage from mold or mildew. Cattle can clean up any loose hay that may fall through the cradles before it is trampled or wasted.
The spring assisted "E-Z Hitch" tongue pins up out of the way to stay clean from manure droppings, or to prevent freeze-down during winter.
The feeder has 16,000 lb. capacity, a 90" wide wheel tread, and comes with low profile 2600 x 12 in.12 PLY flotation tires. It is built for long life outdoor use; vital components of E-Z Trail's accurate steering are weather protected.
The most regrettable testimonials we have are from people who wish they had known about the Dual Purpose Feeder before they bought more expensive feeders that have less capacity, are not self-cleaning, and cannot be used as a bale carrier.
We are doing everything we can to make the Feeders available to you. We can also provide financing & delivery.
What Others Have Said...
- "My Bale Carrier/Feeder is a real Hay Saver! The way they clean it all up is hard to believe. Even underneath there is no hay left on the ground."
M.M., Goodland, IN
- "It's easy to keep hay out for my cattle with the bale self-feeder. It is a nice outfit. I don't have to worry when there is snow on the ground. My neighbors are impressed with it too."
B.W., Wayland, MO
- "I really like my Bale Carrier/Feeder. It pulls nice and handles well. It doesn’t waste much hay. Everybody that has seen it is impressed. I wish I had a couple more; it’s just fabulous!"
J.T., Austin, TX
- "It works great! My bales are small, so it took 14 bales to fill it, and they hardly wasted any at all. I am well satisfied and would recommend it to anyone interested in one."
D.B. Rising Sun, IN
- "The concept is terrific. I am a cattlewomen who farms alone. I also represent New York on the cattlemen's beef board and am a NCA Committee vice chairman. The Carrier/Feeder is the answer for feeding my cattle, especially when I am away for 5 or 6 days at a time."
E.S., Cameron, NY
- "Hauling and feeding round bales with the Carrier/Feeder saves hay and makes my job so much easier that I am going to replace all my portable bunk feeders."
W.W., Glen Haven, WI
- "It's the smoothest and straightest trailing wagon I have ever used since you have eliminated all wear points in your steering. I recommend that you don't tell anyone your secret."
J.D., Fairfield, NC
- "We had such a rough winter in '93-94 that I had to use 2 CF890's to keep my cows fed. Winter or summer it's a good working all-purpose trailer. We haul our bales quite a distance. I wish it were 3 feet longer, then I could haul 12 big bales. It has plenty of strength."
L.D., Gary, SD
- "We bought two Apache portable bunk feeders before I saw the E-Z Trail CF890. We can't haul hay with them and can only feed 4 bales at one time. Now that I bought one CF890 I can haul eleven bales or feed eight bales at one time. I want to get another one as soon as I can."
Joe Catoe, Jefferson, SC
- "My neighbors look on with envy when they see me haul eleven bales or feed eight bales at one time. I have cut my chore time from one half day to two hours."
Sam Mabry, Simpsonville, SC
- "The Bale Carrier/Feeder is the best thing I ever bought for my farm. I really love it and like to tell other people about it."
A.M. Berryville, VA
- "IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE, my cows waste less hay feeding eight bales...than from one bale in my other feeders!"
