I would but if you grind corn with an Allis-Chalmers you gain 9.6 pounds of milk per cow per day whereas if you use other brands you can lose 9.6 pounds of milk per day.
Works pretty good. I picked it up at an auction for 900$ and cut the mixer part of it that was rusted. The best deal I got on that sale was a gew 98 rifle from ww1 for 150$. They handed me the gun immediately and I walked around the rest of the sale armed lol
I use two pieces of plastic and pull them over each other but I have been grinding every ten days since I ran out. If I don't cover it maybe we can get some rain. lol though we did get an inch Sunday which was the first moisture all summer that I could read in the rain gauge without a microscope
Its a gehl 120, bought it a couple years ago and cut the mixer part off it because it was rusted pretty bad. All hydraulic which is nice. The discharge auger is getting a little rough. It doesn't have much wear but the salt in the mixer tub was hard on it and the discharge
mr Bill every one of us think about selling every day LoL. I suspect I will be forced out either Dean foods will send us the letter or our hauler will quit .
That's what I keep hoping , that they'll just force me to quit. We got a new milk inspector that's trying to get rid of the smaller guys I think with some of the things she wants done. I saw one of your comments on Jeff Reymond that you were milking so I had to check your channel out.
Ya, we were 3.53 yesterday. I had this corn on my uncles wagon that he stores inside so I put corn in it last fall. Got a tandem truck yet then I will have to buy some
Sucks having to buy feed, I only have about half of the hay I will need for this winter, so might end up chopping more corn than planned... Like you said, good thing its cheap!
I'll have to chop a lot to this fall. Got an inch Sunday and that was the first rain of the summer that registered in the gauge. Not much hay, I'm glad I baled some rye
I hear those orange tractors are delicious, but id like to see that Oliver 60 on the grinder.

mr Bill I guess I didn't think about that but it makes sense
What moisture is the corn and what size of screen do u use
It's a nice little Grinder Man

mr Bill that's hilarious man
what do you cover it with?

Corn meal is great feed but expensive because we have to buy it from the co op which they import from the US
Ya I imagine the shipping gets expensive
Nice grinder what brand is it?

You didn't buy a 2-155 today by chance?
mr Bill no I didn’t lol. We put to many hours on our 2-155 to buy one with 9000 hours already lol
I went to Steiner today and bought some over priced parts and I noticed it went for 8600 while I was waiting for the guy to round up my parts. Lol
mr Bill haha ya it was plenty of money for a series 1 with high hours
Are you feeding that straight or blending it?
Its going in a tmr mix that's got baled hay and corn silage mixed with a vertical mixer
mr Bill dairy cows?
Yup, milk about fifty or so. Think about selling the cows everyday but I never seem to do it. lol
