This is my first year of coastal bermuda hay and a week ago today about four hundred bales were done for horses. My nephew got two hundred bales for his horses. This week he told me his horses liked it much better than the hay he already had up. Said they really liked it but it also gave them diarrhea. Well there has to be reason they like some hay better than other and also the diarrhea.
It had not been sprayed with any chemical at least two full months. It was fertilized with a balanced blend (think it was 17-17-17) about end of May and then nitrogen applied about last of June. Both applications were about 150 pounds per acre. Both were granular. Rained heavy on it for the full growth and it grew for about six weeks before being cut. My nephew said it was rich hay and excellent hay. He is mixing it with the older hay and says they are eating it well and no more issue with diarrhea. Think there was one horse that it hit heavy but not all.
I realize there can many things here but it strikes me if the hay is liked by the animals the buyer will notice that and maybe become a bigger customer.
Why does animals prefer some hay over others all coastal bermuda?
