It is so good to see you and your family! Please don't stop making videos.
Thank you for the encouragement!
Hi. Are you guys putting anymore videos on sometime ? It has been a while...
Glad to see you and the family. Glad all is okay.
Thank you!
I think I'd just roll that bale intact to the back of the feeder, put another round bale in, roll it back, and keep feeding it like a PEZ dispenser until it's full and let the sheep eat the tight packed bales all season. You have given me a wonderful idea, though, for a mobile feeder!
Yes great idea.. I have fed in a similar fashion when we have had to leave for a few days.
We are interested in the PDF plans please.
