Common Sense Manufacturing

This bale feeder, which holds the hay up off the ground, was such a hit they went through the time and trouble, about two years, to get it patented. The distinctive design allows calves to eat from the bottom of the feeder rather than being unable to reach the hay or even getting caught in the middle of a traditional feeder.

The creation of this innovative bale feeder led to the design of other useful products for farmers and ranchers, including feed bunks, calf shelters, windbreak, hydraulic wire winders, and fencing products. All of the products made by these folks are extremely heavy-duty and come with five-year warranties for breakage. “We want our products to last a long time,” the owner says. “My products are very practical and I know they work well because I use them too.”
