Hi yall!
The hay my goats eat hang in a hay bag. We had a storm blow through last night and the hay is wet. I know it will mold after a while. But what do you when your hay gets wet? Let them eat it? Throw it out? I dont know how long it takes to go bad.
Thanks!

If you spread it out to dry quickly, it shouldn’t go mouldy and can be fed. I’ll feed my animals wet hay as long as I’m sure they’ll finish it quickly or it’s being fed in a way/place where it can dry.
