I have been ringing round all my local farm shops for Hay and cant get my hands on any! Is anyone else got the same problem. Its cos of the drought we have been having in this area. I am going to have to resort to P&H if I cant get it anywhere else so its going to cost me a fortune for the amount I need for my lot. I have to have some

I am in cambridgeshire. My usual farm shop wont be having any untill at least the end of the month and everywhere else is keeping hold of it for themselves because of the shortage!

Yeah I have struggled as well. Finally found some last week so brought as many bales as I could get in the car!

ring round the farms rather then farm shops
the hay shortage is from last year not this year, this years hay is still to be harvested

Same area then, I know what you mean about people being selfish with it (normally to fill up their stupid little bags ), I doubt things are gonna get any better for a while either as they are predicting a 50% drop in the harvest this year

Try some garden centres - the ones up the road from me have plenty

I'm in Cambridgeshire too (pretty close to herts though) and get my hay from the local farm/pet shop, not huge bales but the bags are big and my bunnies love the hay.

If you cant get any from a local shop maybe try somewhere online.
Apparently 'hay for pets' is very good, I'll be trying them soon.

God that would cost me a fortune with 8/9 here at the mo
