Our new method of moving round bales. Sure beats using the truck!

Great idea!! Just a word of advice, roundbales should be left on their sides to shed rain. When standing on end, the rain runs down into the bale and causes mold..

I only use forks to set bails for my cattle. You will find a bale spear does not hold the bails as well because quite often the center of the bail is not rolled very tight and the bales tilt more easily but the outside of the bail is much tighter and the forks will support it and hold it better. Just a side note when the bail 1st landed in there that is the best way to leave them because if you get rain it will help shed off the water like a thatch roof instead of allowing the water to soak into the middle if it takes them more than a couple days to eat it. Keep up the good work.

Charles Wilke You have a good point forks-vs-spike. The loader was also nearly maxed out height wise, so I’m not sure we could clear the top of the feeder using a bale spike. Leaving the bale horizontal would shed the water better, but the horses tend to eat down from the top when we stand them up. We have less waste this way, they go through about one bale per week. We also only feed bales in the winter.

Been there as well. We used to roll them on a plastic tonneau cover and pull it with the truck. Then made a "bale spear" that used the truck snowplow hydraulics (video on that as well). Finally got the tractor and used the forks like in this video. Now we have a bale spear for the front end loader. If you don't have the "right" equipment, you have to make do with what you have, the job had to get done somehow. Thanks for watching.

They got the job done for sure. But since we removed the pin on bucket and added a quick attach, I'm much happier with the bale spear we have now.
