Abstract
Compressed livestock feed such as hay in stack form is severed from the stack, dislodged and transferred to the side of the stack for feeding. A stack is loaded on the stack mover bed and advanced to a position partially underlying the feeding conveyor. The conveyor is then activated and lowered. Conveyor mounted blades sever the underlying stack portion from the stack and a conveyor mounted raking device dislodges the severed stack portion and transfers it to the side of the stack for discharging.
