So the buns are moving outside and I ordered a bag of straw from dustfreehay.com which arrived the day I ordered it! But I don't have a clue how much straw they'll go through.
I get hay from dustfree too but if I buy a big bag it fills two dustbins, a big box and a couple of plastic bags. We store it in the cellar so I can't just leave it in the hessian sacks.
So after all this waffle basically what I want to know is will they go through that small bag quite quickly, quicker than hay? A small bag of hay lasts about 2 or 3 weeks whereas we've barely started the big bag and we've had it for weeks.
Also is dustfree straw good quality for the price or would I be just as well buying it as and when I need it from a local farmer. Looked at his straw and it looks ok at the moment but might not be as great towards the end of winter!
Jeez that was a long post sorry
