VN>      Timothy around here is WONDERFUL, except for two things.
VN  First, there is nothing on God's green earth that I am more allergic
VN> to; I put on Playtex gloves when I feed it to my horses.
        ohno.!.  How horrible for y o u.!.  I couldn't imagine
being allergic to most things, let alone hay.  Do your gloves go
all the way to your shoulder?  I must be sloppier than most cuz I
usually end up with hay everywhere...down my shirt, in my
pockets, in my hair...  :)
VN> Secondly, it is $7.00 for a TWO WIRE BALE!
        It's hard to make a comparison based on a per bale price.
Hay around here can be anything from a 45# bale to a 150# bale.
I've bought hay for prices ranging from $65/ton to $135/ton
(depending on quality and time of year)  Happily, right now the
boys are all getting fat (maybe a little too fat) on just plain
pasture grass.  I should be buying, but since I'm moving, I've
got to wait.
VN> Dub eats about a bale a week; the vet said to watch him on all the
VN> bermuda I was giving him as the vet had seen some horses 
VN> impact on bermuda.  Sounded weird to me (the vet was there 
VN> for Spot) but the vet had just moved here from North 
VN> Carolina and maybe that is a problem there.
        Never heard of that...but then...I've not heard of a lot
of stuff.
VN> It's okay, I LIKE paying exorbitant prices for hay and
VN> breaking out in hives!  :)
        hEh...sure yah do.  :)
