Big Valley Haysmart Bale Feeder

Big Valley Haysmart Bale Feeder

The Big Valley HaySmart Bale Feeder (26120512) is an innovative round bale feeder designed to dramatically cut hay waste with an elevated, controlled-access feeding system—up to 96% hay utilization. Its grade-40 high-test chain netting mounts inside the feeder to keep hay up off the ground, helping it stay cleaner and drier while encouraging cattle to eat the bale instead of turning it into bedding. In other words: more hay in the cow, less hay in the mud.
