I struggle constantly with hay.
Live at the ocean, south of Charleston, across from Savannah. "Low country" Verrrrry humid.
The horse hay in big bales always seems to be moldy. I dig into the middle to check.
When I purchase Oxbox in small bales, it comes in dusty and broken, if not moldy. It's been worse the last 5-6 years and now impossible.
Have tried sorting through the bales, picking out the pieces, rinsing off dust just before feeding. Throwing most of it out.
I store it inside hvac with a hygrometer, keeping it dry once I get it.
I've been through all the threads,
can anyone please help, places to purchase, ways to store? Anything.
I just lost a doe to lung cancer-- am looking for a new way to deal with hay.
She ate all organic-- greens + pellets, banana, apples. Twigs and chew branches from local organic pear trees.
I free fed hay and know it's crucial to their diet... Thank you so much for your help!
