Hay quality?

Is anybody finding that the quality of normal meadow hay is getting bad? Or was it just the shop I bought it from- it's really brittle and hard

I buy my hay in bales and so far its been OK

I suppose I have never bought hay from there before so can't really tell from now on I'll stick with my usual supplier lol.
I am quite annoyed though £3 for a small bag of spiky hard hay

Dust free hay is still good

For £2 i get a bale of hay that will last me ages with my buns (horses)
But at a place near me (we ran out at the stables) they sold a very good quality greenish hay for £4.50, and even though it's more expensive than usual it'll still be cheaper than buying those little bags.
Do you have any farmshops near you?

no but I can buy some from the stables I help out at
But it's not too good at the moment because the barn roof is leaking so it's ok for horses but not for bunnies

The hay at my yard is great quality and not dusty at all Im lucky. Beth why dont you look round horse feed merchants they normally sell bales ?

The only horse feed merchant I know of only sells that Norfolk Pastures Dust Free stuff which I have found can be quite sharp and full of splinters.
I can get really nice green stuff from a local shop

I would get that then Beth.

I do usually, I just didn't have any hay and that was the first shop I went too

Hang on, so the hay you usually get.. you didn't get.. you got another...
or am i confusing myself even more?

no I got a different hay than usual- I was just wondering if it was all hay quality or just that hay
