[QUOTE="mnmtranching, post: 667306, member: 3937"] I buy hay from and old guy that stores the bales in a shed. Boy it's nice having the truck come with the nice green hay and no spoilage. If you store outside, you got to figure at least 10% more bales to allow for spoilage. I've bought plenty of net wrap, outside bales. I'm not at all impressed. But then again I don't like the string wrapped outside bales either. I can tell you for sure, when buying outside Big Round Bales. Get the biggest, hardest bales you can. Those big and hard bales shed the water better and absorb by far the least from the ground. Storing outside hay on sand or gravel on a hill or mound helps a lot. [/QUOTE]
