Most of my cows are several miles from the house. I use a tractor mounted 3 point round bale mover there.

I was just able to get a few acres next to the house and want to feed round bales to a few cows on this new place, but the tractor at home is too small for a 3 point bale mover.

Instead of moving to a larger tractor at home, I"m looking at getting a bumper pull, two-wheel, single-bale buggy; disabling the hand cable winch, and adding on a remote hydraulic cylinder to hoist the round bales with.

Has anyone done or seen this done. Any comments on this idea??

Thanks

Tumblebug Bale Mover
Tumblebug bale movers are the best hay transport system for a pickup or small tractor. Attach them to small tractors or trucks to make bale moving a snap for smaller farm operations. A Tumblebug is a one-man time-saving machine that requires no winches, no ropes, and no hydraulics. Tumblebugs are self-loading, quality built, and ready for the big bales.

I don't imagine it would work to good without the "optional" tires. It would probably be ok without the hubcaps though.

We have used a tumblebug since 1975. They work great.

Funny thing about those trailers....
A couple of years ago we had some hay "disappearing" off of a remote farm. Those trailers make a unique track when the wheel locks to roll the bale on. (this one worked with a brake on one wheel, not sure if the pictured one works the same) Only ONE of those trailers in the neighborhood!!! LOL

I borrowed one from a neighbor once. His is the only one I have ever seen. It worked great.
I'd like to have one.
