timjohn - 6/8/2023 10:48 good point to make, i just am a mud snob and am tired of making a big mess.



There are ways to combat mud.   Even a little dirt work to make the water drain away from the area you put the bag on can do wonders.  

IMO, if the silo is usable and you have a usable bunk feeder, find a good used top unloaded.  If the silo needs work or you don’t have a bunk feeder that’s usable, forget about it and put that money towards dirt work and rock or concrete.     If you did the work yourself, the money for a used unloaded ($3000?) could buy the ready mix for a 12’ x 90’ strip of concrete.
