Olivetroad Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Is your feeder powered, or gravity?RobThe one on the back of the pick-em-up truck has a 12 volt electric starter motor with a belt to the auger. We hard wired it to a switch on the dash. It augers it sideways and then there is a chute you raise or lower with a rope out the window where the feed slides down to land in the trough.I am building one that has a hydraulic motor for the auger that will fit on the front of a skid loader - the boys can operate it pushing it forward without running over a cow in the truck Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/22607-job-loss/page/2/#findComment-97693 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivetroad Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 We mainly feed corn gluten squeezed into pellets smaller than the range cubes. They come from Decatur Illinois and are a great cheap by-product feed for wintering cows. We can handle them in the cube feeder box, but you have to feed them in troughs as it is so small of a pellet and it crumbles into dust - gets lost on the ground. Those old grandma cows come back alive in a hurry when they hear the feed truck comin'! About like me when I hear my blushing bride runnin the Kitchen aid mixer!

Popular Post David Posted January 12, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted January 12, 2012 THE NEW ANT and the Grasshopper, Two Versions: The ANTAND THEGRASSHOPPER This one is a little different....Two Different Versions ...Two Different Morals OLD VERSIONThe ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.MORAL OF THE OLD STORY:Be responsible for yourself!MODERN VERSIONThe ant works hard in the withering heat and the rain all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while he is cold and starving.. CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food.America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopperis allowed to suffer so? Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper and everybody cries when they sing, 'It's Not Easy Being Green...'Occupy the Anthill stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the SEIU group singing, We shall overcome.Then Rev. Jeremiah Wrighthas the group kneel down to pray for the grasshopper's sake, while he damns the ants. President Obama condems the ant and blamesPresident Bush 43, President Bush 41, President Reagan, Christopher Columbus, and the Pope for the grasshopper's plight..Nancy Pelosi & Harry Reidexclaim in an interview with LarryKing that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper,and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity &Anti-Grasshopper Actretroactive to the beginning ofthe summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the Government Green Czar and given to the grasshopper.The story ends as we see the grasshopper and his free-loading friends finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which, as you recall, just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around them because the grasshopper doesn't maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow, never to be seen again.The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident, and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the ramshackle, once prosperous and peaceful, neighborhood.The entire Nation collapses bringing the rest of the free world with it.MORAL OF THE STORY:Be careful how you vote in 2012.I've sent this to you because I believe that you are an antnot a grasshopper!Make sure that you passthis on to other ants.Don't bother sendingit on to any grasshoppersbecause they wouldn'tunderstand it, anyway.. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/22607-job-loss/page/2/#findComment-97718 Share on other sites More sharing options...
