I stopped by the feed store today to pick up a bale of hay. I've had to lock the horses in their runs:(. When I went out back the other day to catch Harley I noticed they had started eating on trees. I'm 99% sure it's just boredom. There was nothing out there till this week. I'm not sure when they started doing it, but I want to make sure there is plenty of forage out there before I turn them loose again. I am planning on seeding/fertilizing any way in April.
Anyway, all that to say the feed store is out of our local hay. Has been for quite some time. I didn't know that. They are suppose to get some blue stem in tomorrow, shipped in from somewhere. No telling what a bale is going to cost now. I just like giving them a flake or two a day when they have to be locked up 24/7.
I guess the drought has really affected the hay production around here:(

Bummer about the hay! Apparently there's a lot of people who are in a world of hurt because of the drought. I sure hope y'all get more rain this year!
