We buy 100 every other month. Back in Sept we started to buy 50 bales extra for the winter months. About Oct we purchase 300 bales of good grassy hay. THen in Dec we got another 150 bales more just to be on the safe side. We ended up with almost 400bales of hay for the winter. Now we are down to less than 200bales. We only give them exactly 9 leafs of hay for 9 horses and safe the extras leafs from the bales. Most of our bales of hay some have 12 to 14 leafs of hay in a bale of hay. We are set until first cutting.. Once the mud is gone we will give them one meal of grass. But we will start them out slow with only 15min of new fresh grass. Anne
