I am looking at alternate hay suppliers since I need a new bale and one is advertised as "sprayed". I looked this up and I understand that it is a chemical that's sprayed on hay to promote the hay drying out. Should I avoid this hay? In my area, it seems to be a popular choice and I'm really uncertain about it. I'm not sure if the hay I was getting was sprayed or not (The people here don't really understand the caution about these things, they think I'm insane for even feeding hay to a rabbit - you wouldn't believe the looks I've gotten for that!) but it was nice and green in color, as green as orchard grass gets.
So is spraying something that's done to ALL hay or is it something I should avoid? I have been seeking exclusively horse quality so it isn't cattle hay.
Thank you in advance!
