god been a while since i was in here  :D

anyway as the farms beef herd is expanding we thought about a bigger feeder wagon to increase efficency at feeding time so we rang around a few of our dealers to see if we could get a demo,

abbey didnt have a demo twin tub in the area but they had a second hand one in stock from a big suckler farm it is in reasonable shape nothing a good wash wouldnt sort and a bit of paint,

i went with the 6920s to collect it thought the 7530 or t7050 would have been overkill

the 6920 and loader is on feeding dutys to day as you can see in the back round the men are getting ready to collect a few loads of straw for a customer

overall we liked the machine and a bigger wagon is a definate but it would be a new machine and will be trying a redrock shortly

a neighbours 8340 and our kane flat trailer with the 416s and 7430 and tri axle flat going to collect a few loads of straw its for the farmer that owns the 8340 and his son was keen to go so i let him take our trailer

Excellent updates there CJ, I've been trying to get a look at your layout for the past 24hrs, since you added the new pics, but my broadband connection seems to have reverted to dial-up speeds for some reason. It's good today though  :) Have to say worth the wait, Ballylaw has some nice new kit for the winter. ;)

Baler looks great, I have one with a broken steering axle so it would be an ideal donor if Dr Hobbit would ever pull his finger out and get it sorted out for a single axle  ::)

I like that bale squeeze too, that's a brilliant looking build mate.
