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. | To save the expense of buying hay, you must build at least one [[silo]] (eventually, it is common to have three or more).
