ABSTRACT:
An agricultural vehicle for transporting and feeding round bales of hay consisting of a vehicle frame having wheels, which are retractable for setting the vehicle on the ground, a trailer hitch for towing the vehicle, a plurality of inverted U shaped frame members for supporting opposing jaws which are attached at the top of the inverted U shaped frame member. The opposing jaws engage bales of hay between them. Once the bales are lifted off the ground they can be transported to storage and stacked by raising the jaws, or the hay may be fed to cattle. The vehicle frame is surrounded by feeder bars which allow cattle to access the hay contained in the vehicle, by sticking their necks between the bars.
