[QUOTE="kerley, post: 1222026, member: 7335"] My wife has been buying compressed Alfalfa hay for her two old horses at TSC for around $20. per package. We found a feed store in town that had Alfalfa two wire bales for $19. each that were shipped in from NM, it was nice leafed but the stems were dry and very hard. You just don't see the three wire bales of Alfalfa here in Montgomery, Alabama like in Nevada and California. I do not like the salt and mineral from TSC, the last salt I bought there was a light yellow color and smelled bad and the Mineral looked like ceiling acoustic and was brown in color. The cattle did not eat the mineral so I replaced it with the local brand from the Ranch Supply and now all is well. I may be wrong but I suspect that TSC formulates their mixes with a lot of filler. I mix my salt and mineral together. As far as Hay, I have tried it all here and paid from $10. to $40. per roll. I recently found a Hay Farmer fifty miles south of me that sells to me barn stored 4x5 tightly rolled string tied rolls for $15. My trailer only holds eleven rolls but this Farmer only charges me for ten rolls and my cows love it and are very fat. [/QUOTE]
