    No I dont think you could do that, You wouldnt get an even mix and youd need a good bit of horsepower to turn it while full!

    by the sounds of it, your not set up for a diet feeder to be run cost effectively per head. get a beet grinder and a good front loader and mix away, will be faster than diet feeding and nearly as effective. You really need a second tractor for feeding and you would want to be feeding 150 beasts to make it pay. I have a feeder but what you save wouldnt/may make the repayments. I still wouldnt be without one
