With that nice of a baler I wouldn't put much I to having a spare unless your going to run 2 operations.

I know you weren't really asking for opinions on rather you needed it or not. I think there good balers and if it's priced right it would be fine. I like net wrapped hay so if I owned it I would use it and park the other one.

Your 567 is a commercial baler. While the 458 is a newer model and has net, it is still the Deere's entry level baler.Both balers will eat hay and make a good roll of hay. One is just heavier built than the other.

i dont know why my brother wants the baler.as i know he dont want todo any custom baling.although with that baler it would be easy.

Don't know much about JD's as I have 2 Case's but I can see the 458 net wrap if your brother is planning on selling hay. The 4x5's with net, load and haul much easier than the 5's :2cents:
