I am surprised that you don't just go to Anderson's export yard and buy the kick outs. I have several friends who do that. Not at Anderson's but at export yards in Hermiston and Boardman. The export kick outs are good hay. They just have some sort of blemish or maybe bleached out side on the bale. You know that stuff they export has to all be prefect.

Then, when the guy went to get the hay, alot of it was gone. Owner said was "stolen" but would make it right, moneywise. In reality, he had gotten an opportunity to sell it for more money, so sold it and just said it was stolen. That happens quite a bit with some of the people around who can't be trusted. Hopefully, your hay supplier wouldn't do such a thing.

You really think so, Alan? I don't. Could't do business with many of the people I do, if I believed that.
Then there is "the dress looks nice", "nice haircut", "no they don;t make you look fat", "you sure don;t sweat much for being so fat"Alan":1pyfqqbr said:Kathie in Thorp":1pyfqqbr said:Alan":1pyfqqbr said:Everyone lies

Yes I do believe it. Everyone lies to some degree. ie; "I didn't say that", "traffic was bad", "sorry boss I'm pretty sick today" , " why yes Jo, I think I would love eating some beaver stew".
Some lie at every little thing, some just figure it's just a little stretch of the truth ...... Everyone lies........ Except me.
