Title: free hay
Post by: gapcap on August 06, 2010, 10:32:40 pm

We have about 30 ish bales of hay,they are big bales, very old so not suitable for feeding but may be of use for bedding or whatever,seems a shame to burn them when they could be of use to someone, all we ask is that you collect and also take any broken bales, we need the room in the barn. would prefer if you could take the lot rather than in dribs and drabs!! herefordshire area.

We got our sheep from Pontrilas  :)

How big are the bales - will they fit in the back of a ford Ranger pick up?
