Earlier this year we got an old used JD round baler and for the first time made our own round bales. Until now we were previously getting our hay baled by neighbours or hay contractors, so I was pleased to be able to make our own hay, but unfortunately it also meant going back to twine bales as our baler is twine only.
Recently I saw an ad for a John Deere 466 (Silage Special) with net wrap for sale at a good price. Not much info in the ad, just that it has done approx 29,000 bales. Basic appearance seemed OK in the photos but couldn't see much detail.
Sounds like a lot of hay has been through this baler, does 29,000 sound like too many bales? I'm guessing that the answer will depend on the baler's previous usage, how it was stored, etc? Our use is quite modest also (maybe 200 round bales per year).
