Loving the herd life
Atwoods hay is really overpriced (actually, so are a lot of their products because while it looks cheaper, they are only 40 # bags) - what kind did you get? Find a good local hay supplier and it'll be half the price, roughly. Quality matters, horses can be picky about hay. A good prairie or coastal bermuda will work, but alfalfa would probably be better. I use alfalfa cubes because I have a local supplier at a very reasonable price, far cheaper than a bale and less waste. If you worry about them choking on the large cubes, a little water makes them instant mush; you can get alfalfa cubes at Atwoods as well. I do that for the goats because the cubes are bigger than their mouths, though the horses don't seem to have problems with them.
