Shredder Makes Great Mini Feed Mill

Shredder Makes Great Mini Feed Mill LIVESTOCK Feeding Equipment When Mike Corder needs some ground feed for his 15-head cow herd he just fires up his leaf shredder The unit didn t cost much and it makes it easy to adjust the coarseness of the grind If I want to just crack the corn I run it at a slow speed he says If I run it fast it turns the corn kernels to meal Corder says used chipper/shredders are easy to find Unlike a full-size hammer mill they don t require a separate tractor to power them either The little gas engine is more than enough Grinding up a batch of feed is as simple as pulling the shredder up to the door of an older gravity box wagon The top of the shredder fits just under the lip of the door allowing corn to flow in at the desired speed I pull a rubber horse tank up to the blower side and the cracked corn collects in it says Corder It s ideal for a small herd of cattle goats sheep or any other livestock that eats corn Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Mike Corder 96 SR 186 N Humboldt Tenn 38343 ph 731 787-6428
