No trouble finding hay at the regular price here in Illinois. Must be a Texas drought-thing.
We had a hot dry stretch here in Michigan this summer but the way the grass is growing now, I can’t imagine the hay is doing too bad.
Here in Arizona, we’ve given up feeding hay. We just chop up dollar bills, and feed that!
OK, joking. An 80 lb bale is running $17 (was around $10), and that is expected to rise to $25 this winter. However, it is poor quality hay. I’m feeding twice as much just to keep my two horses from losing weight.
But it beats what is happening in Texas...must really suck there!
It’s bad down here.
