Hay or barley straw available somewhere near Tai tapu or who will deliver
Hi guys
Does anyone know of anyone who has hay or barley straw to sell who is near Tai tapu? Or even better can deliver (I can pick up though if needed but if someone can deliver I’m happy to cover the cost of that)
I need it in the small bales that I can pick up and carry myself, not the big squares as I have a very small area that I rent and there is no way to get a large square into the area where it would be storing it. For the same reason I need to get a few bales on a regular basis rather than a large amount of hay/straw in one go as I don’t have the space to store more than maybe 6 bales tops and keep it dry.
I have a number of ducks and rescued ducks who normally free range on the halswell river, however there is currently an outbreak of either botulism or another toxin on the river which means I am having to get as many as possible of my ducks off the river and into a run to keep them off the river.
Because ducks are messy creatures who like to turn anything into mud, I need about 2-4 small bales a week of hay or barley straw to keep the run sanitary.
I have been picking it up from dawes but they are out of barley straw and it didn’t look like they had heaps of hay so possibly they will run out of that soon too.
Would really appreciate any referrals to anyone who might have a good supply of barley straw as first preference or hay as second.
Anyone who has some to sell can contact me by calling or texting 020 406 41485, text preferred.
Thanks

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
