....but just like small squares you basically still have to hand feed the darn things

Nah, we just throw them in the TMR mixer, just the same as round bales.
or into a bale feeder, same way we feed rounds.

I have dropped them into a round bale ring. And I have set then on the back of a flatbed which I put into granny and kicked flakes off as the truck idled across the field. I know two guy here who have a rig to feed the big squares. One is tractor pulled, the other is truck mounted. They hold 4 bales. A chain moves the bales forward. Once they slide on to the table in front a hydraulic arm slowly pushes them off to the side. They drop a flake about every 30 or 40 feet.
