I need to find feed bags

Postby Crystal » Fri Mar 06, 2009 1:10 pm

Not like on the face bed bags, or hay/trailer feed bags. Hang on the stall, heavy duty quality canvas feed bags. KBC has them for almost $10.00 a piece, but when you need about 24 of them.. Thats a little expensive.

Anybody got a source?

I can't help you on the bags, but are you taking are of yourself and watching your sugar (not BDW)

This guy seems to have canvas bags and a little cheaper than $10.00
Maybe they can give you a volume discount or free shipping?

If you are talking about the kind that hold about 4 or 5 pounds of feed, we got ours at Paddock Tack in Lexington about 15 years ago. They still are in good shape. I can't remember that shop's new name now.....

Perhaps someone who repairs blankets could make some for you if you have no luck finding any. Ours are monogrammed which is nice as they don't run off that way. :)

hey guys,
I'm looking for the ones with small loops at the top that you can hang outside a stall. So when I google feed bags or grain bags I get a different type. I got bags last year at cheaptotes.com and they were ok, so light they would blow around the barn with a good gust though..

sugar has been ok lately. Cant wait for the weather to get better to do a little more walking,, it was nice out today and I journed around the farm with apples. :)

That is the kind I mean. Does anyone know what Paddock Tack in Lexington now calls itself? They likely have a website.
