I grind alfalfa hay and corn to feed young lambs. As many have said, a g/m doesn't grind hay very fast. An old hammer mill designed to grind hay or corn stalks would work much better. I've seen field choppers converted to stationary hay grinders. However, I find that if I use hay feeders and control the amount of hay, I get the ewes to pretty much clean up their hay. Of course one can go overboard on this and not feed them enough.

By the way, what kind of sheep do you have? I have Polypays and know people in Harlan and Center Point, IA with the same kind.
