Tips on minimizing hay waste...
So with hay being out of season now which makes it harder to find in larger amounts or at all in the worse cases, like for example I was buying 6KG of hay during the summer months in a shop called Bargain Buys for just 4.50 so I bought lots of it because that is cheap. They don't have any more. I wish I had bought more because I have noticed I'm getting through it very quickly and the rabbits eat more than half of it but there is also a lot that goes to waste so I want to try minimize the waste. I have tried hay racks but they just pull it all out onto the floor.
I have thought about giving them a handful of hay each time until its all been eaten but then I start to wonder about them not getting enough during the night when I'm sleeping or when I am out.
What do you do?
