In our area of Colorado hay prices are all over the map. I can buy anywhere from $120.00 per ton to $200.00 per ton delivered. My last buy was 20 ton trucked in from Nebraska @ $140.00 per ton.
4 x 4 x 8 bails are common and easy to get but don’t fit my operation very good. 3 x 3 x 8 bails are getting more popular and easy to find as well. Small bails are what I go after but normally have to pay a premium to get them and most farmers have gotten away from putting them up because they take too much time to deal with. The horse and goat people all want the small bails here as well and most will pay a high price to get them. I can often have hay brought in from Nebraska cheaper then buying it locally and hauling it myself. The biggest problem I run into is finding real nice barn stored hay. Field stacks are cheaper to buy but not hardly worth the trouble of sorting and having to throw away the 15 to 20% that I cant feed.
