What size bales does this baler make? I know it is variable chamber, so I am assuming it can make just about any height bale. Are they good, dense bales? I was just thinking about one for baling bluegrass for horse bedding, maybe about 500 bales a year at most. Right now we have an M&W 4500 (4x5 fixed chamber). It is alright, but the bales are not that tight and you can't make shorter bales, which limits how high we can stack them in a shed. Is there anything I should know about the 855? Is $3500 a good deal for one that looks to be in good shape? Also, will this baler bale silage type material (such as loose bales of wet horse manuar? Not guarenteeing doing this since it has done its toll on our M&W. I just like the chain drives, they seem they would be a little more reliable than belts and stronger and also, they are less expensive and I don't need to worry about leaf loss either. Also, Will a 763 bobcat handle one of these baler's bales? The 763 can safely lift about 1500lbs I think. Thanks. Hurst
