Re: [Alpacasite] Re: need good hay in California

Hi Holly,
I know our topic is hay--but I think the way you are using it
in a salutation it is spelled "hey"........ On topic, our hay bales
run around 95# and are exactly 2' x 4' which is great for stacking
neatly.

This topic of hay bale weight comes up most years--out west
we have huge bales compared to the eastern hay. Sometimes I wish
mine weighed 40# not 95.

Cheers,
Jan Sherrill
