Hay Bales...

How big is an average hay bale from farm etc? I get mine at the moment from Morissons as the buns go mad for it, but am thinking about starting to get bales but not sure where I could keep them so needing to know rough sizes!

Cheers :D
 
All I know is that it fits snugly into the boot of a Renault Scenic. :lol::lol:

where do you get your bales from??? do they last? I thought if you bought in bulk like that it doesn't sat fresh?:?

I get mine from a local farm shop - lots of horse feed suppliers sell them too. ;) Hay is already dried so there's not really a 'shelf life' as long as it's kept dry. :) A bale lasts around a month for my two, but I tend to pile loads in because it's so cheap.
 
Oh thanks...my local feed store sell for horses I never thought of asking about hay in bales :oops:..will check when I next go
