First, you note it's longer than the blue trailer, so it's easy to load 10 pallets. Second, there are low side rails, which prevent the pallets from slipping off. Those rails also make loading pallets easier; just put the pallet over the rail, lower the fork, and back out. The rail pulls the pallet off.

Does this trailer allow multiple connections? Doesn't seem like it does.

For example see my screenshot below, I'd rather 3 blue trailers without the rails over 1 trailer which holds less.

Mr Xidus: only 300 sheep? Man, I can see why you'd want to load three trailers. 300 sheep wil take forever to create a pallet, even at 30x speed.

Second, you're putting only 8 pallets on each blue trailer; you can fit 10 with careful maneuvering. The trailer I use has extra space, so you can easily put 10 on sloppily.

I haven't tried linking together multiple trailers

Just out of curiosity, why do you have a fertilizer tank out there? I see both fields 37 and 38 are planted with grass. Fertilizer is of no value on grass.

Probably wanted to spice up the sheep area with the seeds and fert. :)
A BIG salute to farmer's and trucker's who keep the world going. If it weren't for you, our belly would cry.

Since taking that screenshot I now have 800 sheep, Pallet basically is done by the time I finish loading another pallet. (120x)

True I can fit 10, I did the first few times but it just requires extra time spent in the Loader, I'm fine with loading 8.
(I'm always looking for better and larger trailers, Currently testing a large flatbed trailer I converted from 2011)

Also, that's not a fertilizer tank, That's a tank full of Jack Daniel's. Drinking on the job is a proud tradition on my sheep farm. *thumbsup*

I previously tested the John Deere Auto-Stacker with 22 bales, and it worked. After loading the 26th bale, the game locks-up. Apparently not compatible with the baleLoader class in the GIANTS engine.

I believe CornetPlayer was actually referring to the JD auto-stacker he referred to in his other thread and just forgot to mention he was going to try that one out as well. :)
