I like the smaller bales for feeding. little less waste it seems. would be neat to see a feed analysis of these bales. maybe a guy feeds a straw bale in a ring when feeding these wet bales? slow it down in there gut a little so its not green juice out the backend. lol did the peas make pods? do peas make a high oil seed like soybeans do? definitely worth analysis for that. lot of people like peas maybe I need to try some next year?!
Don't forget to put some bait down near the bales. Vermin will love them. That's bound to be beautiful feed man. I'd love some. How do you find the roll belt for silage? What moisture are the bales you reckon?
Agree got away on us a few times (moisture) even cut early, ( flag leaf stage ). If it wasn’t for being put in a Harvetore and second crop alfalfa on top immediately, it would have been a problem feed. The hollow stems just don’t pack when they dry out/mature. ( dairy feed)
Good looking feed. I'd call that cow candy too! Bet the cows will like it come winter.
Cattle will luv peas & oats this winter!!! 👍

You were wrapping the bales right.. How did that work out with those large bales?
Is this high in protein? Thinking about trying this for sheep
We used peas as a cover crop on our farm.high protein hay
Did you get the baler knives out or fixed or unstuck
I think the Sloppy Bales is due to the Vhinny Nature of the Peas. Not a lot of Rigidity to The Peas.
You get the crop cutter working?
Spread fertilizer in the new new seeding. Word of difference
Ben it's always about size. Should make good feed
How many acres was that? Intrested in doing some next spring possibly
Is said to be 17, but think it's more like 15.👍
Next time try to drill in Teff grass.. You have no idea how it add condition to the cattle in winter..
Oats are always bulky to work with. Even if you chop them and try to get a solid packing. But I'm sure every thing will be just fine for you.
