Do you cure your hay before feeding it to goats?
When you buy freshly cut hay, do you wait to feed it to your goats to let it cure? If so, how long? Thanks.

Hay is cured in the field before it is baled. Nothing the goats like better than freshly baled hay. When we bring it home from the field, we give it to them right away, and enjoy being the heros.

my goats love the freshly baled stuff...we don't do anything special with it.
