Lester one thing we do is before you drop the bale to the ground leave it up about 6 inches to a foot off the ground and cut your strings. Then you can pull the all off before you set it on the ground. Then you won’t have the animals get string around their heads. It works like a dream.

[@melissamiedema6812]

Suggestion - cut the string while the roll is on the tractor picker. Lower it down to where you plan on dropping it, but leave it in the air a foot and cut and pull all the strings then. This way there's less string for him to mess with. Love you guys!!

[@cynthiatrogdon2564]

That is the exact same thing I was thinking do not set the roll all the way down. If you watch Cross Timber bison he cut it while the role is on the spike🐃 and he does not have that problem with his buffaloes

You might want to consider looking into purchasing a snake hook. The type that are for very large snakes like reticulated pythons or Burmese pythons. There's no sharp edge on it and you'd be able to possibly hook up under the string and pull. This way you wouldn't have to worry about cutting your him. I know you're very concerned about him suddenly moving accidentally cutting.

[@CarolAnn1818]

You are so wonderful with Tex, Lester. You made that look easy. 😊 Have you ever thought about doing what Daniel Arms does to avoid these situations though? He cuts and removes the strings while the roll of hay is still on the forks of the tractor before he sets it down. That way you get all the string off even from the bottom. 🙂

Maybe cut the strings in the exact middle of the BOTTOM of the roll right before you set it down on the ground and unwrap it after it is set down.

[@fallbrkgrl]

Would it be possible to cut, and remove all of the string, while it's still on the hay spear, just above where you are going to place it? Or would it just fall apart?

[@janicemeservey6321]

I know local farmers get all that string wrap off the round bales. Actually know of a farmer who lost cattle because they ingested the string. Please remove all string before putting it out for the animal. This is something I have been wondering about when I've seen you feed.

We've always been vigilant about removing all of the baling twine because of it causing a choking hazard with our horses. Any livestock animal can accidentally ingest it.
