Hay and straw warning.

Do you think it could breathe in there?

I've done it for the past year and the hay stays in tip top condition. It doesn't go mouldy or anything as you will be opening it on a daily basis to grab a handful, so it gets to air. A bale lasts me 3 to 4 months and it's as fresh at the end of that time as it is at the beginning.

I have my 2 bale sitting in the dinning room clothing door. I open it once a day to grab new hay.

Wow - that's really green hay! It looks really nice.

I would love my hay to look sooo lush

Is it hay when it's that green? :?

Not meaning to sound stupid, but I was under the impression it doesnt become 'hay' until it's turned from green to the golden type colour...

ours are £4 a bale and we pay for £30 a time and the farmer stores them for us and we just go down to the farm whenever we need it

so you buy 7 and a half at a time? :?



I just realised you maybe meant you pay for 30 bales, not you pay £30. Sorry :lol:

I paid £4.80 for a bale of hay at the week-end, and it is beautiful hay! Bunnies love it.

I break up a bale into 4 to 5 bin bags and store them left open in the loft. I use roughly one bale in a month.
