[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 81506, member: 9"] We use the Horse type feeders by Applegate Steel ("Tombstone" model) and the one by Tartar Gate. Are heavy duty feeders that weigh between about 150 and 225 lbs. No real problems with them. Occasionally a bull will lift the feeder up on edge when the hay inside gets low so he can get to the remnants of the hay. Yes, with a new bale sometimes they will "loosen up" the round bale with their horns...some waste but not significant. We just make sure they have eaten all of the un-soiled hay before we put out another bale. No, I would never buy or use one of those < $100. "cattle type" feeders with longhorns. Too flimsy and all have that ring around the top. [/QUOTE]
