There was a horse that died from botulism in the next county lasy year - I think they tied it to their hay but I'm not positive and I don't know what kind of hay they fed. AT one barn where I kept Doppa in the north part of the state they brought in round bales that regularly had dead animals in it - I wouldn't allow them to feed Doppa that hay - I bought her her own. Wanda's hay was the nicest looking round bale hay I've ever seen and I think she said she'll still picks through it. My square bales are really clean oat hay but I still shake it out as I put it down so I can see exactly what I'm feeding. -- Laree in NC Doppa & Mura Simon, Sadie and Sam (the "S" gang) "Yet when all the books have been read and reread, it boils down to the horse, his human companion, and what goes on between them." - William Farley
