Ha ha, yeh, when I started buying a bale it was so much cheaper, but the best bit was the bunnies loved it and ate more of it than the more expensive stuff.

:shock:dident think for that although have now got plastic boxes to contain all food and hay just dont think it will be big enough for that :shock::lol:
 
I would love to buy it as my buns did like it but its storage! I have a garage so could keep in there but how do i keep it, what in?
and what about insects?
Im scared of all creepy crawleys so would they get into it?

Thanks :wave:
 
I buy hay like that too :) I store it in a huge dustbin in the shed... and as the whole thing doesnt fit in i have to store some in black bags... i just dont tie them :) It seems to keep ok, though i buy one of these about once every 2 weeks :lol:

Its a good bargain :thumb: I pay £2 :) Saves me a small fortune :roll: Though i do still buy the expensive hay for their racks :oops::oops: xXx
 
I just found the number to a farmer that is selling Hay and Straw. £3.50 was the most expensive he does. When we run out we will be using them, they will also deliver for 50p. I'm so excited about getting fresh Hay!
 
Is anyone going to share the information about where they get their fresh Hay from, I would be interested too! ;)

You could always bring it inside in small batches and freeze it. Let it thaw then feed to them once thawed and dry. I do this for my gerbils so not to bring any beasties onto them
 
Always makes me laugh when people say hay or straw will attract mice - how will they know its there if they're (the mice) not there already? Do the little mice have radar???:lol:

I get a bale too - I had a horse for 20 years so I'm not used to those pet shop hay bag prices!

My tips:-
Use an old quilt cover to get it home in the car, saves lots of hoovering.
Store it in a shed or garage, if you use a plastic bag make sure its got holes in, you don't want it to sweat and get damp and mouldy.
I share mine with a friend so we get a new bale more regularly thus reducing the risk of it getting damp in our storage.

Yeh ano hay attracting mice is funny :oops::oops::lol::lol::lol:
Only thing is we live near fields and get mice in our garage a few times a year and seem to enjoy the old newspapers that get kept in there :lol:

I think i will just get it and share with a friend so i can get fresh hay more often and at a cheape price!

Thanks :D:wave:

Just ask at your local farm, livery stable or some sellers advertise in Country shops. Maybe your local farm shop sells bales.
