Bale Feeders Built by ECWASP
The three pictures below are examples of feeders built by other companies that use light gauge material in order to sell a feeder at a lower price. Feeders built with material that is too light simply don't stand up. They are bent far to easily and weld joints fail allowing them to just plain fall apart! Bars break off and sheet metal comes loose. This is dangerous to livestock. Do these pictures remind you of your feeders? If so, you realize that saving a few dollars when you purchase a feeder is really wasting money!
Elk Creek Welding & Steel Products, Inc. strives to manufacture the heaviest, most durable feeders available! We believe a small amount of extra expense for quality constructed equipment is the best investment you can make. Why keep buying "throwaway" feeders that only last a few seasons and aren't worth repairing?
The "Turnover" Round Bale Feeders are great hay savers. These Units are welded, one piece construction. The frame is rolled 1 1/2" square tubing and the skirts are 14 ga. steel. One skirt is 26" high for feeding large animals and the other skirt is 22" for feeding smaller animals. The feeder can be turned over to accommodate different sized livestock and to double the life of the feeder. Total height of the feeder is 75" and the top "skirt" keeps feed from being pulled or blown over the top. Users report being able to put the next bale in while a large portion of the first bale is still remaining for extended feeding time! 8' 6" diameter, 650 lbs.
A flexible chain "Sling" to support the bale is available as an option for the
Turnover feeder! (pictured) This "sling supports and centers the bale
while it is in the feeder and any feed that is torn loose will remain in the
feeder!!

Optional "sling": $150
