It's almost october now, and usually if we'd been on a yard there would have been hay out in early september. there still seems to be plenty of grass in the field to keep them occupied but i'm not sure if i should be giving them hay aswell. when does everyone else put out hay? should i just wait til the grass has stopped growing, then stick a bale out?
also, last year we just put hay on the ground, but so much got wasted. this year we want to get in round bales so they have as lib hay all day. is it best to invest in a hay ring (and how much are they?) or will a round bale be ok just being left as it is?
