[QUOTE="Blaithin, post: 7327160, member: 5764"] How would that work? Water just runs off my silage bales here. If I stuck them on top of a hay bale then all the water would run straight onto the hay like I pointed an eaves trough right at it. And since I assume the hay would be standing on end to support the silage bale instead of on its side, it would just be a giant wick soaking up the run off from the plastic instead of shedding it on its round side. Unless your hay bales are smaller than the ones here and the wrapped bales hang a bit over the sides. Then it might not be so bad. But round bales here are all much larger than wrapped. To me, it would work better the other way. Silage bale is the mushroom stem on its end, hay bale is the mushroom top on its side. Water runs off the outside of the hay bale and when it hits the silage bale plastic it just slips away to the ground instead of being able to sit there like it normally would. [/QUOTE]
