Oh, sorry guys.  We haven't so many for ourselves to spare those sorts of numbers.  Sorry.  :(

Aye, I'll let you know.  Equally, if you come across good barley straw (with no chemicals used) in excess of your own requirements....

BTW, are you wanting specifically barley straw?  Or would wheat straw do your job?

Wheat straw would be fine for me - it's just for bedding.
