Apparently Santa’s four-legged helpers have incredibly sensitive stomachs, as The Dealer recently saw “magic” reindeer hay for sale in a Kilkenny shop.
Retailing at €10/bale, with an average reindeer bale size a fraction of the size of an average small square bale, it would appear that reindeer not only have a delicate constitution but an expensive palate.
