Well, it seems like animal feeders went on sale right on time! Unfortunately they can’t afford it, due to funds being low and not wanting to use credit until the tractor is paid off. [A]

The fact that they raise this kind of money and grift all this shit is beyond me. People are so retarded.

The whole tranch can't scramble together 800 dollars? Aren't there 12 people there? Wow, they're worse of than I thought.

Good luck getting that motor to start from your inverter or generator.

It's just another paperweight, isn't it. Apart from the fact that they'll have trouble powering it up, I doubt they've realised what an absolute drudge making pellets is. Here's a video of someone using a similar machine with grass. So instead of starting the tractor, picking up a bale of hay, driving to the field and dropping it, some poor sucker (a field troon, I guess) will have to stand in a freezing barn for hours a day feeding the machine one handful at a time.

And they'll still have to buy the raw materials and mix them up properly. If they are giving 1.5kg of food a day per alpaca (that's starvation rations level, but I'm trying to be realistic here), then they need to mix up over 250kg every single day. If they could do that in 4 hrs a day (1 hr mixing and fetching and 3 milling), then that's 120 hrs a month to save $1000. Or $8 per hour. The local McD would pay better and be less boring.

Some of those photos of the serf quarters on the barren, brown earth and full of malnourished livestock look like they were taken in bumfuck, Afghanistan. Impressive.

How would this save them money? Either that's a misconception, a lie or I'm missing something. They're already buying feed and the alpacas are starving, so they're clearly not buying enough. Pelleting won't magically turn 200 kilos of hay into 300. The only way this would save money is if they're buying pellets and plan to switch to buying hay and pelleting it, but why are they not just feeding hay to the alpacas? It's not like the animals are having trouble eating it all, they have a *feed shortage* not a feed quality problem!

By not wasting a bunch of food I assume.

Didn't Bonnibel live upstairs? Conspicuously absent from this image are all the 3 monitors he had lined up, which differs from earlier images using the same angle.

I suppose they're planning on mixing in cheaper things then hay into the pellets, so they won't have to buy as much hay. That's the only way I can see it saving them money.

They might try to flip it for full price once they realize it is more work and doesn’t save them any reasonable amount of money. But by then it will probably be in terrible condition from the lack of maintenance. Some poor sucker will likely still buy it off of them because they want to support the queer tranch.

I was curious about those giant pride flags seeing them here and in the Kevin thread so I looked them up. The orange and pink one is the lesbian pride flag (predictable) but the gray one is agender pride. Which one of them identifies as "agender"? I thought they were all true and honest wammin?

That'd be Sky, and one of the peons, iirc. It's almost as if they're erasing all signs of Bonnibel's presence because of his defection.

I think Kevin also calls himself an agender trans woman. Which makes no sense, but then again, none of gender ideology makes any sense.

 

[Old Fart]

Great! Now they can finally pelletize Kevin. Fulfilling what is no doubt one of his fetishes, freeing up space in bed and a few weeks' worth of llama feed in one go!

Ah yes, another fine product from the tentpole of the farm implement industry, Hogaki, the wish.com of industrial equipment. Surely nothing will go wrong when they power it off their anemic solar system.

a field troon, I guess

The fact they have developed an under caste of labour trannies who live in a schizo built favela will never not be the funniest shit ever. How mentally ill do you have to be to even fall for that.

Edit: speaking of things being memoryholed, the whole thread concerning the Kevinizer 9000 and the fact that someone bought it for them seems to have mysteriously gone missing, unless I’m mistaken.

My guess is that they're hoping to reduce waste. Right now, they feed the alpacas by just dumping a huge mass of hay on the ground, which ends up with loads of hay wasted as the alpacas walk/piss/shit/etc. on the lowest layer of hay and any that gets scattered or pushed off the top. By making the hay into pellets and presumably feeding them from large tubs instead of just sticking it on the ground, they can minimize the loss and thus save money. I'm not really sure how that would save them as much money as they seem to think it will, though.

I think that thread alluded to it - they’re probably having to buy some kind of ready made winter feed now as well as fodder. Both are expensive, and as you say they’re too retarded to construct proper feeders and are just chucking bales at the animals and letting them get on with it so the wastage is high.

Basically you want a mixture of lower cost raw materials that you can buy in bulk and mix as needed. Cereals, fibre, nutrition additives, what have you. And pellets seem to be the recommended format for feeding alpaca.

Yes, mixing by hand and using one of these small machines is going to be very time consuming to DIY the food. But field troon labor is free and you gotta keep those degenerate fucks busy doing something.

So the plan is solid but I’d be more worried about the longevity of the operation. An $800 machine doesn’t sound like it’ll be very robust. If it’s thrashing away for several hours a day, plus the wear and tear on the generator, they’ll be broken down and grifting for a replacement before the end of the quarter imo.

Interesting insight into the finances though. If this *saves* them $1000/mo, what are they actually spending on paca food right now? 2k or more? No wonder they’re desperate.

 

[Red Mask]

So, they’re still managing to make money off other people’s generosity?

Those poor serfs. Can you imagine? Nah.

 

[Bees in the marmalade]

Not gonna lie, I just assumed they were gonna sweep all the hay waste up off the mud floor (piss and shit and all) and shove it through the machine for a second go at it.

You know, rather than buy a hay feeder to minimise waste which has been pointed out in this thread like 3 or 4 times now.



Pointing it out for the hundredth time but the stark contrast between their wrecked property and the shrubs beyond their fences continues to be staggering.
