One machine, three jobs
Whatever you need to put on the ground
The same belt handles round bales, square bales and loose material. Add side walls to the single unit and it feeds out.
- Add optional round bale arms to unroll round bales
- Add optional sides to the single bale feeder for cottonseed, mulch or straw
- The belt travels forward or in reverse
- All moving parts are covered for safety to stock and the operator
- All done from the safety and comfort of inside the vehicle’s cab
Round bales
With round bale arms unroll round bales easily with no effort.
Square bales
Feeds out in even biscuits. A double-length unit takes two large squares in one run.
Loose material
Loose material photo- cotton seed, loose silage or garden mulch – with the optional set of sides and rear chutes fitted.
How it works
Stay in the cab. Flick a switch.
Nobody climbs onto a moving ute or trailer. Load the bale, drive out to the stock, and run the belt from an in-cab rocker switch or the hand-held remote — anyone who can drive can do it.
Load the bale — no hoist needed
Drive out to the stock
Run the belt from the cab
Specification
Built for the way you actually feed
Single mount on your ute
Sits on the ute tray, so feeding out is part of the drive you were making anyway.
Or a registered trailer
The trailer unit is built for on-road use, so it travels between blocks legally.
Double length on trailer
A double-length unit carries two large square bales and feeds both out in one run.
Remote control option
A hand-held remote runs the belt from inside your cab or from a trailer.
In-cab toggle switch
A rocker switch on the dash starts and stops the belt without leaving your seat.
Auxiliary or hardwired
Run it from an auxiliary socket or wire it straight to the vehicle battery.
Round bale arm holder
Arms hold the round bale in place on the belt so it unrolls evenly instead of dropping in a heap.
Optional feeder rear chutes
Under-arm rear chutes keep loose material on the belt so it spreads evenly.
String retention slots
The strings stay with the machine instead of ending up in the paddock.
Recognised by the industry

The people behind it
Invented by a farming family who found an easier way to do the job
Patrick Daniher invented the bale feeder to solve a problem on his own place: feeding out meant climbing on and off a moving ute, and picking string out of the paddock afterwards. You deal with Patrick directly — he answers the phone, quotes the job, and knows the machine because he built it.
