Silage Wagon Converted Into Mineral Feeder
“A few years ago a friend gave me an old silage wagon. I removed the silage box and running gears and then added another axle to convert it into a 24-ft. tandem axle hay wagon,” says James McGowan, Russell Springs, Ky.
    “The silage box was in good shape so I pulled it to the back of a field where I converted it into a livestock mineral feeder. I installed a metal roof and cut 2 large holes in the wagon’s front side, which I use to place mineral inside the box. Cattle can easily reach through the holes to access the mineral, and the silage box is built heavy enough that they can’t tear it up or turn it over.”
