Sugar beet pellets in feed bin

[poorsheepfarmer]

Will they be alright or will they set solid?

 

[Top Tip.]

Should be ok if you get the supa flow pellets

 

[Northeastfarmer]

Be reet

As long as you use a little bit often it will be fine but don't leave it untouched for weeks

This. And it' best to take some out of the bin in the first 12 to 24 hrs to make sure it doesn't 'set'.

I've got some coming in a few weeks and the feed rep told me not to put it into the bin as it will stick and bridge.

If it comes in warm you got problem's

After seeing how it can 'set' tipped loose in a bunker... I think you are brave.

I've had some supaflow blown in this time. It's in a steep angled side discharge bin it's coming out alright with a bit of a tap on the cone now but first time was a barsteward, but anything bridges worse when blown into an empty bin. Must get the next load before I run empty.....

A firm local to me was selling "superflow"cheaper than usual and no doubt it was imported so be sure what you are getting

No

No

Feed whole, cheaper, less labour, good stuff

Try mixing SB on the lorrry with soya hulls or something similar. It helps them flow. Tried it and it works.
