From my experience, every facility has its own peculiar regulations when it comes to feeds and grass hays!

 

It is best to check with that facility a month or so prior to a planned activity.

 

Some sensitive areas will require processed extruded commercial feeds only, One and Only comes to mind. (note: not promoting that particular feed, it is just one that is approved at certain National Parks in Texas). Each of the various manufacturers have their own variation.

 

A veterinary certificate showing the animals feces has been tested negative for seed grains of any type that may pose a threat to the native forage!

 

There is no set rules across the country that I am aware of.  To be safe, if extensive travel to different areas is in your plans, it is best to put your horse on one of the extruded processed feeds, that do not require hay feeding! It is also cleaner, and does not require large amounts of hay stock in the trailer or truck, and no fear of not being able to find a certain type of hay in strange parts of the country.

 

Good Luck,

 

Louis

I guess maybe I did not make my request clear...I am looking for is the PAST threads or postings on the subject on this website, the archives of past articles on hay storage and certified hay etc.  people, the current and right way to travel with your horses and Hay when goign into conservation areas and areas that forbid certain hays to be brought in for fear of transporting foreign weed seeds to other areas.  If I recall, there was something said about after January 1st some posted new rules adn regs apply......

 

I am at a loss on how to navigate to the archives here.  Sorry!! 

 

What it is is I am trying to go back on prior postings on the subject here.  I know there was some great discussions, just do not know hot to find them!

 

But I guess any new discussion is good too. Thanks

Hi, Una, I need some quick help... can you or anyone help me with getting some information on taking hay and keeping vehicles clean.  I know there was discussion here in the past, but I how do I find that thread or threads?

 

Thank you!

Ps - while I enjoy this forum very much, I find its navigation sometimes to be loathesome! I wish it had an easier forum, but then that is just me.
