To save the expense of buying hay, you must build at least one [[silo]] (eventually, it is common to have three or more). Each silo stores up to 240 pieces of hay, and can be filled by using a [[scythe]] on grass outside (50% chance of hay from each grass unit cut). If your silos are your storage account for hay, then the [[Hay Hopper]]s in the farm buildings are the hay ATMs, where you can withdraw hay into your [[inventory]] or deposit it into storage. The hopper will give you the exact amount of hay needed to fill the feeding bench for one day for the building you are in.  The [[Coop|Deluxe Coop]] and [[Barn|Deluxe Barn]] withdraw and distribute hay to the Feeding Benches automatically.

Should you wish to have less silos, you can pull hay from the hopper and store it in chests.  To do so you must have a coop or barn that does not have a full feeding bench and then you can pull multiple times from the hopper, provided you do not have the hay equipped.  This becomes impossible if all of your coops and/or barns have been completely upgraded to deluxe as the feeding benches are always full thus you cannot withdraw hay from the hopper.
