I have to soak my hay to reduce sugars, but after a drainage problem at the yard I now have to empty the water in a different place.
So tap is in one location, drainage spot in another, and stable in opposite direction to both. At the moment I am struggling to carry buckets of water over to soaking location, it's not close at all and the hose won't reach, and then lugging the haynet back to his stable.
I have thought of buying a large wheelbarrow that I could put under tap with hay in to fill up and then wheel to soaking location, but unless I buy a £150 one I don't think the hay would fit in, and I really can't afford to buy that right now.
Does anyone else have any wise ideas before I do my back in?
Thank you in advance
