I agree, they do exist with less hours but they're quite scarce. Hopefully one will appear

Gave him a call, same about the hours. Thanks very much for the reply though

Thanks for this, I'm going to try and find one with a bit less hours on it for now.

Hello, not sure if this is the right place to ask, but we're looking for a fendt 820 if anyone is selling one or knows of one for sale. In the UK. Thanks

That does look handy as well as good and cheap! They've never seen an electric fence before and they're finishers and should only be around another couple of months so maybe not worth training them now. Something to think about for next year tho if I don't get anything this year

That would be very handy

I've not seen that one I don't think.

Hello, has anyone bought or built a gate that can be driven over with a tractor to get into a shed of cattle? So you could get in with feed or bedding without the cattle getting out when you open the gate. I've seen the electric spring loaded ones but I think the cattle running around would mean...

Hello, has anyone got any experience of these? It says on their website that they've been around for 50 years but I've never heard of them before today. They're significantly cheaper than the mainstream brands and have a 5yr warranty. Resale value might be a factor but maybe not? Thanks

Fairly seem to hear mixed reviews. We got it to weigh 400kg and sometimes it said 450 and sometimes 290 so I’m not sure it it’s the machine, the loadall or us not knowing how to work it

Hello, we bought a 63 Reg 536-60 loadall which already had a Weighlog 200 in it. We’re struggling to get it to work, sometimes it seems accurate and other times it’s miles out. We got a quote from RDS to come and see it to get us going but they’re wanting an arm and a leg. Any tips? Or better...

We were doing it with the Keenan too, it worked ok, we got about 40t/hr and added 20l/t of water. We mixed it for a few minutes then unloaded it on the ground and pushed it up into a heap with the tele, there were still damper patches where the water wasn’t mixed properly. That’s why we wanted...

Have you done it this way since 2014 and if you have had it continued to be a success? We’re thinking about doing it but just through an auger to treat it whole as it’s supposed to keep better rather than being bruised.

We have a spread a bale maxi that we have only ever put 4x4x8 squares through. We get on well with it but a lack of straw storage has made us wonder if we’d be better making 6ft rounds that can sit outside. How do they go through the spread a bale and are they much slower than the squares. Also...
