[QUOTE="novaman, post: 686487, member: 2744"] Or 2500 pounds :o ! Made my first cutting alfalfa bales tighter so they would shed water better. Went to weighing them and I had a couple over 2500 pounds. On average mine are around 1600 pounds. Lot of guys put up 900 pound bales and then expect to get the same price as heavier bales because they see a bale as being a bale regardless of how much hay is in one. So if anyone buys hay either buy it by the ton or request the bales are weighed to keep from getting ripped off. Guessing bale weights is very difficult. [/QUOTE]
