[QUOTE="yellowbelly, post: 5787920, member: 42308"] Intakes of unrolled bales (especially silage) are higher too. When we first started making big bale silage in the 1970's the grass was cut one day and baled the next - this lead to very heavy, tight bales. In the first year one of our sheep customers was having trouble with housed ewes losing condition and dying. Lab tests could find nothing. He bought a bale unroller and pens that were eating one bale a week suddenly were eating two bales a week - they were finding it too hard to pull out of a whole bale and would rather go and lay down and die than work at it :facepalm: [/QUOTE]
