Since the girls were spayed and then it got much much colder too we have managed to get through a whole bale of farm hay in 3 weeks! :shock: Hubby is going to collect a couple of bales tomorow which is exactly 3 weeks since the last time he went! I have about half a black sack left! So glad we found that option now!! :lol:
On a plus note they wouldnt really eat the farm stuff when we first got it but they are more than happy to munch through that now...infact I dont think I will need to order anymore 'posh' hay for a while! They get a large handful of posh hay per day and a handful of readigrass aswell (between them) although I have just been out and given them some more oat hay (they looked cold and I felt bad...sucker!! :lol: )
Do you use straw aswell for bedding or just hay? I have been putting a layer of straw in the bedroom under all the hay and Im just wondering if its necessary or wether I can just get away with using all hay? Is straw warmer?
