You need a machine to move those big ones, no?
Yes for the most part
On the farm? No, we have 3 loaders to handle the bales with and can make twice the hay in half the time as little bales without breaking a sweat.
Plus it is a higher quality hay in the big bales.
On the job? A little but it depends on the size of the job
On jobs that require multiple big bales it is handier since I don't have to man handle all the little bales. I typically have machines on the jobto load with or load the bales and the chopper on the same trailer.
On litle jobs it can be a pain but that is why we made the crate. We just take the crate or load a few chunks.
I am thinking about just getting a 5 x 8 trailer to just keep a bale on and bring it along when we need it.
I do make little bales to keep on hand otherwise we only make them on a custom order basis.
