I bought the Taylor Precision 30504106T Industrial Hanging Scale from
Amazon.com ($13.00). Weighs up to 55 lbs, which is fine for me since I am
just
doing flakes, not the whole bale.
I hung it from a rafter next to my hay bales using that old stand

You can get a fish scale from any sporting goods place (Walmart works). They
range from the simple spring operated one to fancy electronic ones. I've had
both. The electronic one didn't hold up well in an unheated barn through
Colorado winters. I still have t

when I was feeding hay out of a round bale, I discovered I was giving them about
twice what they needed until I started weighing it. I took a large trash bag

Eileen,
We have fed it all this last winter with a little alfalfa thrown in. We have
now stopped the alfalfa but still feed the bluegrass straw. Our horses love
it! What we have is really soft, small stemmed hay. The horses held their

her exercise and take her away from the others, I bought the muzzle that has

Hi Julianne, I try to have my horses fairly trim before the grass starts
coming. Also, if all else fails buy a muzzle. The muzzle allows the horse

summer. Baldur gets just enough to make sure he gets his Bioten supplement.
The paddok he is in has very little grass, what grass does grow is quickly
