looking for used feedill machinery

Does anyone know of a feed mill out of business that might be selling their machinery? I need used stuff in good condition and cheap for my poultry farm.

Used Hammer Mills

I found these on auction:

Used Hammer Mills for sale, Hammermills Used

Google "used hammer mills" to find others.

Hope this helps. Good luck with your search.

How much grain do you need to mill? I make beer and put together a mill for myself a couple years ago for about $150 that does 5-6 pounds per minute.

I'll be grinding at least 2 tons per week. It is amazing how hard it is to find feedmill machinery. Thanks...

I think you'd wear out my little mill in a couple weeks at that rate.

Yeah. When I was a kid, there were at least a half dozen doing business within a 30 minute drive of our farm. Now they are all gone. I think the co-op still has a mobile unit that goes to the farm to grind.

pilot, I'd have to have a 24-7 crew to grind LOL.... I'm still hopeful someone will see this and say "hey, there is a mill here that is closed and equipment for sale" Yeah I know wishful thinking...
