Question Anyone know of good hay?

Well guys, I'm looking for about 100- 150 small, (75 ish pound bales)of good, horse quality grass/ alfalfa mix hay, or some good, horse quality grass hay. I live in Hays, KS and the hay would be going to Parker, CO. I'm willing to go about 50 miles North, East, or South of Hays. And 50 miles North, West, or South of Parker. Or pick up along the way. If you guys know of any, just PM me.
Thanks,
Geoff Pelletier

I'd have to personally check it out. It's for a friend of mine that is rather picky about what her horses eat but she trusts my judgment. How much per bale? or per ton. What does each bale weigh? Was it put up and stored dry? Where are you located?

Well relatively soon. She's still got about 1 week left in what I got for her last year and she has about 3 weeks left of some really stemmy crap. So proabably about 2 weeks.

It was all up dry and stored in a barn i don't know what the bales will weigh... I will most likely unroll a big round bale and square that up... it will be fescue and brome mix.... i'm 300 miles or so east of you.. my problem is you not taking the load once i'm there...

Oh you'd have to re bale it to the small squares? Well you could email me some pictures of the hay. That would give me a pretty good idea on it.

I can tell you there isn't any good hay in this direction Northern CO/WY. All the hay either went to TX/OK for cows, was kept here for cows coming from TX/OK or was sold for horse hay at extremely high prices. Our main hay supplier this year sold his water to the oil field. I'm looking for 1-2 semi loads for next year, grass-small squares that I can use and resell to all my horse hobbiest friends. Good luck with your search..
