Almost forgot to mention... Opened a new hay-bale last Saturday (the 14th). This is one of those huge round-bales, and so far nearly half of what we have pulled off of it has been rotten. There's usually one small bad-spot where they sit on the ground, but it only goes one layer or so deep. This bale has mutiple bad-spots, and they've gone several layers deep! There's a huge pile of mouldy hay that needs to be hauled over to the compost heap! NOT happy about this at all!
Cattle can generally deal with this stuff without problems, but it's big trouble for horses, and even moreso for miniature horses.
