BIG BALE FLAKER™
Feed your cattle efficiently with a revolutionary bale feeder from the Bale Buddy farm equipment company in Ardmore, OK. This product is built to last and be maintenance free. You can’t match its versatility and price.
The BIG BALE FLAKER™ is the first bale feeder of its kind. It is an all-electric, 12 volt, completely remote control method of feeding big square bales of hay from the safety and comfort of the cab of your pickup or tractor. It fits on any flatbed truck or trailer and will feed any size large square bale.
BIG BALE FLAKER™ COMPLETE FEEDING SYSTEM
This is a complete feeding system, which utilizes the 12-volt system in your truck or tractor as the only power source it requires. It consists of the base unit, commonly referred to as the Bale Flaker. This is the unit that feeds the bale. It uses a 5000-pound electric winch to propel the bale to the edge of the bed, where the “Flaker Assist” then flakes the hay off.
FLAKER ASSIST™
Our FLAKER ASSIST™ stabalizes loose hay like Bermuda, Sudan or Wheat, preventing a domino effect. The FLAKER ASSIST™ and the safety arm lock into place and enable you to feed a portion of the bale and take the remainder to another location.
FLAKES ANY TYPE OF HAY
Depending on the type and condition of the bale, the BIG BALE FLAKER™ will flake off hay 1 to 2 flakes at a time of any type hay even the tightest bales 1 to 2 flakes at a time. The BIG BALE FLAKER™ can be positioned where it won’t interfere with a gooseneck trailer or cube feeder.
BIG BALE FLAKER™ RELOADING UNIT
For those producers who need to take more than one bale at a time, the reloading unit allows you to carry anywhere from 2 to 6 bales at a time. It is of the same design, except for a second winch, which propels a bale onto the “Bale Flaker”. The popular 2 bale and 3 bale units will fit on most pickup beds.
The BIG BALE FLAKER™ is a safe, economical, bale feeding system that saves time and labor. It turns a 2-man operation into a 1-man job. Anyone who can drive a pickup can feed hay with this system.
