1st crop--$11/bale---2nd and 3rd--$18---4th--$20
 
I just got 30 bales yesterday. $5 each, second cut. He only got 2 cuts last year. First was in August. North west Tennessee.
 
What size are those bales. Looked to me like large squares and if it is as I am understanding things it would not be bad. Now if small squares then it would be high. So what size are they? Last I made hay the large squares or round bales were not yet thought about.
 
So not as big as they looked in picture. Looked like would have been in the 400# range so at that size price would not have been bad, at the 60-70# yes.
 
Morning Tee. Watched a show on YouTube the other day where a farmer in Arizona that just deals in hay was taking the big squares and rebaling them into the smaller ones. He had quite the machine line set up to do it. Going to hitch a ride to Tulsa this weekend? Weather sounds good. 50's
 

Any small bales of that weight here at less than $6 would equal junk hay from roadside ditches.

Hay with a picture and no other description as to what kind hay is useless.

75 clams per bale, and ONLY because the guy works for the same company that K'kins works for. These are $130 bales at regular price this year in OK.

4x6 bales, approx. maybe 1200#. We are loading them with a DewEze bed. Only thing the guy has, that can get there without roading his tractor about 14mi. Thank God for the steel deck. I built it this way for this reason(amongst others)............easy to slide stuff on the deck, and a stronger, longer lasting deck, than anything made of wood. Still a real hoot to load.........just have to back up, and push, and hope they go where you want 'em to go.

Good, fine stem, hay........put up right. Makes for heavy bales.

Trlr is 2400# Tare Weight. I have no idea what it would cost to put it together today, what with the price of steel. I have about a dollar a pound tied up in it. Was a day when steel was reasonable.
