Hay/Haylage & Straw Suppliers - Oldham

[Whoopit]

Anyone know of decent straw in the Oldham area? The place I get mine from is super dusty and I now have a wheeze and cough from it so dread to think how the horses are managing!

I'm paying £25 for a large straw but it's not the best - the slices fall practically disintegrate when you move them and it's really dusty 😔 The hays ok I guess but can't manage with straw that dusty.

Whereabouts in Oldham are you? I get mine from Ripley's - we get the odd crappy bale where it's a bit dusty but on the whole we get good stuff. In fact the last bale we got the horses seemed to prefer it to the haylege.

Do they sell the big round bales of hay Annie B?

 

[Annie B.]

Yes, they have the large in and split on the yard and rebale if small bales needed.Edited to say they are a lovely family to deal with so don't have any worries ringing with enquires.

Thanks. Do you know what they charge and do you think they'd deliver as far as Saddleworth? Is it good hay?

Sorry for 20 questions!

They will have two or three types of hay call to check types, don't know the prices sorry I pick up small bales off them. They deliver to me 100 bales of straw at a time and I'm about 45 minutes away between Darwen and Bolton. Hope that helps, I know it sounds a bit vague but as I say just give them a call open everyday except Sunday
