I did end up getting eight large squares of a mixed grass hay yesterday (not too much straw / sticks in it) which the horse & mule will probably eat most of, but the goats are going to probably waste 1/2 of it. Sixty-five bucks a bale though. Ouch. Still have to get at least another four bales though. If things get really bad, we can feed the goats alfalfa pellets this winter, but that's going to cost a LOT more money.<br /><br />Another problem with getting it from "someone else" (other than our "usual" guy) we really don't know what we'll be getting until we get there. I hate to make two trips, but if we'll be getting a flat-bed load of hay, I'll probably make the trip up there first in the car to check it out before we hitch up the truck with the trailer and THEN find out it isn't worth it.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14436557172029575513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-51079171227539673072011-09-21T04:56:57.382-05:002011-09-21T04:56:57.382-05:00Did you know MU has a database with hay for sale i...Did you know MU has a database with hay for sale in Missouri? <br /><br />Good luck; this has been such an unusual year that it is hard to find and most of it is going to Tx for outrageous prices. <br /><br />Let us know how it works out.gldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03645803822598151817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-628662603932607754.post-65298955499755257492011-09-20T22:18:27.401-05:002011-09-20T22:18:27.401-05:00Fingers, toes, eyes...and everything else crossed ...Fingers, toes, eyes...and everything else crossed too.

There is nothing ...Fingers, toes and eyes crossed. There is nothing - nothing - more unnerving than having to search for hay. My hay guy had hay, but I've had to toss over two bales to mold. I've never had any problem before. I think he just had to cut it and hope for the best.
