About Us

Have been involved with Cattle, Horse and other Livestock.  Some handy dogs  from town mutts and  border collies. Weather forcasting comes with many years of needing to know ahead when to plan for hay. Being  able to read one year ahead  from  ground conditions and Sky!!

Worked on the large Cattle stations in in the 1970's before buying a truck and contract carting  the small square bales  on the Vic NSW border before heading back to NW Queensland  to start a small project  at Mount Isa using town effluent  water.  Then not being able to buy a good mower conditioner  set about building my own  which worked  as well as made, I don't pretend to be  worry about the finish and styling. With the option to operate as a mower  and option of attaching roller conditioners  in frame, or other if require  forage blower.

Crops from Lucerne , Oats to Forage Sorghum are easily handled being conditioned  to pasture grass's are cut and wind-rowed when mowed

When I demonstrated at Dalby Qld  when other brand mower conditioner with Roller conditioner,  the green barley cut by the Hay Bird TM  was dried faster allowing it to be be baled the same colour as standing .  Compared to the other cooking and going white in the windrow.

The same came to using the sickle bar front on the open downs  I built it to cut at minimum 3” or 80mm  to cut above the stones and tussocks  to get the best grass and leave to dirt on the grown. While the design may not please many   customer satisfaction  in a better quality product .
