We are putting a new bale of straw down every day for both our horses and as you can imagine, it's getting expensive!!
The minute we put it down, they're both nose deep, munching away. One is on hay and the other on haylage - both eat their nets eventually, but don't finish it sometimes - probably too full up on their bed! Both also have Happy Hoof twice a day.
And of course, what goes in....must come out...meaning twice as much mess!
Is there anything I can do to stop them eating their straw?? We have our straw made and delivered by our yard, so changing to a different straw isn't an option as is shavings as they are both so messy on shavings and that's even more costly.
