The sad thing about it is that I am almost happy to pay what I am paying if the hay is good and all edible. Sometimes we will get hay that 1 or 2 or more of 10,20,30 bales either were cut on the edge and are full of weeds or weren't cured well enough and smell off and I won't feed something like that because $50 is nothing compared to taking a horse across the state for a visit to Palm Beach Equine in the middle of the night so I end up giving it away to feed to someone's cows. At some places, I can take it back, but it is so far that it's not worth the fuel and the trouble. Here we just get whatever we get and if you don't have air conditioning for your hay in the summer, you can't keep it long. I have a little air conditioner in my hay room so I can keep hay for a long time and kind of stock up but nothing compared to people in cooler climates who can buy hundreds of bales at a time. I think I can fit about 60 in my little feed barn if I really stuff it full.
