[QUOTE="Toby L., post: 634631, member: 9048"] I bale 4x4's, It works good for me using a 50 horse tractor. There easier to move around also, seems like when I buy the bigger ones, I end up fighting the equiptment to much. I can fit 12 or them on the trailer I use, plus 2 in the back of my truch. With the bigger one I can only fit 5 on the trailor and 1 in my truck. It looks like a lot more but I bet pound for pound, it's not much difference, just easier on everything. Last year I ended up buying hay, the guy I was buying from was having them delivered from up north, and the last load that he bought were some big 1800 pound bales. Them things would barely fit in my bales rings, and were a pain to try to move around. :( This year I want to make more small squares, there better for throwing out in the smaller pens, I just have to find someone to help put them up. As far as selling, I havn't had that opportiny yet. Hopefully next summer. :) [/QUOTE]
