Due to severe drought over the last few years hay cost have skyrocketed in the years of 2023, 2024 and now going into 2025.
To feed all the herds it takes around 15 bales of hay each day! Every month we get hay delivered to help prepare for the up coming winter's.
For one round bale of hay generally cost $275.00

Imagine land across the Cheyenne river with canyons and valleys with little to no fences, where wild horses true freedom is! You may wonder how theses horses still eat?

In order to feed our wild side it partakes loading on average 4-8 rectangular hay bales onto trucks, taking 3-4 people to travel across the Cheyenne river up rocky hills and bumpy roads to feed the horses there.
On average one rectangular hay bale cost $200
