My silage last year was made with a belt baler, on past experience the bales they make are so hard in the centre the ewes can't eat them in a ring feeder. So I asked the contractor to chop them last year to see if that would help. Seems last night as the sheep were eating their way into the centre the top of the core fell over and landed on of ones head pinning her in the feeder. Got her dead this morning.
The previous few years I've being borrowing a roller baler and there was no problems for the ewes finishing the bale.
