[QUOTE="John SD, post: 908743, member: 14713"] Can anyone give an estimate on how many cows can be fed with one bale feeder? I'm guessing about 8-10 cows per feeder or there will be excessive fighting? It looks like the investment in bale feeders themselves would add up quickly. I'm looking at a catalog with Vern's and Stur-D bale feeders in it. These prices are from Aug 2011. The Vern's standard and crown feeders are priced at $316 and $519 respectively. The Stur-D feeders are much more durable looking than the Vern's product, but of course are priced higher accordingly also. The oil field pipe framework and sucker rod slant bars are considerably heavier than the Vern's tubing. standard 8' round is priced at $620 9' "haysaver" model is $680 open top feeder is $840 14' oval feeder that holds 2 bales is $880 [/QUOTE]
