Ok: First if you can a mixer that has all hydraulic motors on the augers, that would be great. they are less maintenance and run smoother. When you look at the mixer first look at the augers. Look for sharp thin flighting, if so it has been used a lot. Next look at the hammers. One side of the hammermill will open up. Open it up and loom at the hammers. There are 4 wear surfaces on them. They can be flipped end for end and side to side. If they are all 4 rounded badly, you need new hammers. Cost?? Also, remeber all you have to do is crack the kernel, any crack will let they cattle digest the corn. Mix the rest of your ration and go from there. Also if you can get your hands on some ear corn, they gain well on it, but it does grind harder. Rob Rob
