Mini Hay Baling with Kubota BX23S

[@BradMyers]

Interesting, didn't know you could make round bales that small. Learned something new today.

[@andrewhipps157]

I’ve never seen anyone drive through the hay while mowing lol just messing with ya. That’s pretty cool, always thought of doing something similar

[@tekker8308]

That's pretty nice, do you have the model # of the equipment, and are you still using this setup today?

[@baylenbrown5817]

How much did all the hay equipment cost not including the kubota

[@whippyboy6272]

Wonder if you could wrap them for silage

[@awalkhan2014]

Price please

[@MrMore-xs2zi]

How many bales have you baled with it, is it reliable?

[@Milezone1]

daryle moore it’s so so. A lot of work, some broken parts. Kind of realiable.

[@tofan2622]

@@Milezone1 are you able to give an approximate count of bales made before it broke? Nice video btw.

[@Milezone1]

Matthew it malfunctioned since bale one. Then after about 200 bales the alarm switch broke. Now I basically listen for the lever to fall down. Sometimes the twine doesn’t go in so you always have to be twisted around to watch it and 1 in8 you have to help it catch so it will work. All in all I would not have bought this as now I am into 600 bales and just having to constantly play with it. Another thing is it uses a crapload of twine, seems like excessive so now add about .40 a bale just for the twine. But I bought it so have to keep using it to at least get my money’s worth I guess. The rake and disk mower seem ok. Disk mower won’t set flat so you basically have to run it flat on ground. So wondering how long that will last before it goes

I have a bx 2380 and was wondering if it would be worthwhile try a mini hay system. Did you have any trouble getting your parts and how long did it take to get them. I can't justify buying full-size hay equipment and the money I'm spending buying hay is ridiculously high.

@@Milezone1 does Your 3 point have a float feature ? (Alot of people don't know it's there) Might help with keeping the cutter flat (floating the one side ), and the middle rung on white wheel should give you less twine ( bottom or smallest should give least) switch probably died on the buzzer... there's quite a few vids on Utube now for mods & repairs.... hope thats helpful Stay Safe

Sure is a rough looking bale .

Smaller is better
