[RC] Hay prices - sherman

Lucy,

 

If you’re looking for 3grain and can take at least 88 bales, I’ve found it at $8.50 per bale plus $170 delivery. It gets put in one tall stack that I move into the barn, or hire some guys to do for me, but I then have the same quality hay all year with no price increase. Alfalfa is $1.50 more. My horses are really liking the 3grain since their pasture turned brown.

Funnily enough, I was just doing my monthly phone-
around to find out which feed stores have got what
by way of hay. This is for the
Auburn, CA area:

Feed Store #1:
Orchard Grass - $16.50 (105 lbs)
Rye grass - $16.00 (115 lbs)
3-grain - $14.50 (110 lbs)
oat - $16.00 (125 lbs)

Feed Store #2:
Orchard/Pasture grass - $14.50
Timothy - $17.50
90/10 grass/alfalfa - $17.00
3-grain - $14.50 (108-1150 lbs)
Oat - $13.50

I'm feeding 8 horses right now - all on dry lots, so this is
their only food supply - and golly do those porkers eat a
lot... It definitely narrowed my budget for going to Rides
this year <sniff>.
