ABSTRACT:
A feed mixer is provided and includes a mixing chamber with forward and rearward end walls, a bottom wall, and opposite side walls. First and second mixing reels are rotatably mounted in end-to-end relationship within the chamber, with each reel including an axle and a plurality of elongated mixing bars operatively connected to the axle. The reels are rotated in opposite directions, whereby each reel offsets the side loading of the feed by the other reel and thereby maintain the center of gravity of the feed along the longitudinal center line of the chamber. First and second oppositely inclined augers extend along the respective side walls of the chamber and are rotated in opposite directions. The first auger moves feed away from the first reel and discharges feed into the second reel, while the second auger moves feed away from the second reel and discharges feed into the first reel. The augers float so as to prevent binding and have recessed knives for cutting the grain. Thus, the feed is thoroughly mixed by the dual reels and dual augers.
