Andy there is a red one I think, I am sure there is one on the farm where I used to work. I'm not likely to be down there for a while and I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it, only that it was red. Idela for straw though probably not for this seasons bales  :-\

yep come to think of it remember them all now, memory just needed a jog. cooks unroller had moving rakes on a bed

yes so did the econ one from memory..there may have been a lister taylor one too which used a similar principal

grays unroller great in cubicle passages just that reversing is like russian roulette. the bale sits a long way back when raised from memory. you plenty of grunt in bedding yards  or plenty of run up when in deep litter but ok once you start unrolling them.
