Can anyone recommend a decent hay supplier around the Nuneaton area please.
We have 2 suppliers atm, 1 who's hay was originally very good but has started putting a preservative on his hay & the horses just aren't eating it, it's quite stalky and dry. The other where the hay is so nice you could almost eat it yourself, very soft and green & rich.
We try and mix the 2 types up but they just pick it out. 1 has been on box/yard rest since Aug. '09 and was recently diagnosed with laminitis, our assumption is it can only be the hay or perhaps the way the bedding was lodging in her feet (she has poor foot conformation but feet picked out twice daily so can't see it myself)
So we need a new supplier of mid quality hay! Thanks.
 
Dont know if its any help but we have mini bale haylage delivered frpm Lincoln, its not the very high protein rocket fuel, in fact the last lot was quite dry like hay, he is a very obliging man, replaces any bad ones and always brings an extra one or two on the delivery it £6.50 a bale PM me if you want his number.
 
Iam sure he would come that far, as for size they are about 30Kg. Its a normal small bale with string all squeezed up into haylage wrap(if that makes sense)
They are alot bigger than the packes of Marksway haylage. My sisters horse is on about 3 a week, but we give him as much as he wants. he is out in the field from about 10am-2pm.
