I've been baling peanut residue using a New Idea 4845(makes about a 3x5 bale) Having a rough go of it, material builds up between belts, causing belt breakage and stoppages. We have a New Holland 849 chain baler. How would this baler stand up to the very dusty and gritty conditions? The larger bale would be a plus. Anyone using a chain type baler on peanut hay? thanks for any opinions, mw

I need to know is there any company that stll sells peanut hulls in the bag? I thought you peanut country people might know. A lady that lived in my fathers neck of the woods used them for chicken house bedding and the birds looked real good. Or is there a chance that the peanut alergy that is so dangerus to some kids could be transfered thru the eggs? I just wondered Because I can not find them anywhere. Thanks Moose

I don't know off the top of my head, but I would try to contact the milling companies in peanut areas. Eastern Carolinas, GA, and Texas. This the one in my area.

I know of a few people that used to bale peanut hay with New Hollands both chain and belt balers. They are now running Vermeers. The problem that they had with the NH is all metal contact and rubbing with the sandy peanuts wore them out real fast. One man rebuilt his NH every year for the three years that he had it. Bought a Vermeer and has only normal wear. He bales approx. 1500 in a months time, all peanut hay. Will the NH bale it, Yes but I would not try to run a lot through it. Also the Krone and M&W style balers tend to wear out fast in this type of hay.

James in NC, thanks for the reply, thats about what I expected. Probably would only have to bale 500 a year,If the chains would last 3 years, we may go ahead and use the 849, wmw

Considering the baler is already used I would expect that it would be pretty wore out after 1500 bales. Good Luck
