How Much Do You Spend Monthly On Dried Forage?

I just spent £25 on dried forage. I haven't bought dried forage that much and am curious to know how much everyone spends on it monthly? I guess it varies depending on how many buns you have, and how much you spoil them ;)

I totally agree with Gracie. hahaha.

But every time we order its around £30 and I think we do an order most months. Eek. They are very spoilt though.

I swear they have a better diet than me. So much variety. [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]
 
then you can dry your own for next year. Proper foraging (ie plentiful supplies) I'd say is 2 months away up here though I think it generally looks much more hopeful in March. I really can't wait
 
FARRR too much :shock: but next year will be different!! Determined to dry and store enough of my own for next winter, which gives me more variety too.. Currently working on about £80-90 every 6 weeks. Would have been a lot easier to not go pellet free!!

I get as much variety as possible - currently dandelions, nettle, plantain, raspberry leaves, strawberry leaves, fruit tree leaves, mulberry leaves, mint, lemon balm, coltsfoot leaves and root, dandelion roots, coriander, dill, chamomile flowers, echinacea.
 
Thanks for this :)

Where do people get their forage? Galens garden or the hay experts? Would welcome recommendations as I’m about to buy a load!

I've bought from both and the stuffs really nice. Also hop to forage is good, haybox forage is good, twig and nibble as well.. However since I ordered hay from that healthy herby place, I ordered some of their forage too, and by far this has been everyone's favourite. They all go nuts for it! [emoji38]

I'd definitely recommend the hop to forage hay bales topped with forage though, my lot love them [emoji7]

Thanks Graciee- really helpful. I think I might buy the forage from healthy herby, for some reason I didn’t think of them even though I have their hay!

Dolly Anna- I’m likely to get a kilo worth.

Hmm, my supplier is no good for you then, can only get it in kilo bags of one thing minimum!
 
I saw recently that someone spends £350 a month on forage for I think it was 15 buns and some pigs...:shock:

Norfolk Feeds are recommended as come in big bags, apparently cheaper on nature’s grub website.

Home dried veg and shop bought veg - buns don't like home dried. What's the difference?
