Will hay be digested quickly or grass?

Well, it depends on what species you are referring to (since you have the question posed for not just cattle, but also for goats, sheep and horses), and the quality of the grass or hay. Poor quality grass will take longer to digest than good quality hay, and poor quality hay will take longer to digest than high-quality grass. In ruminants such as sheep, goats and cattle, a low quality forage can starve an animal to death because all it's doing is sitting in the stomach and not doing anything for the animal. It's different for horses, though, as they are able to digest poor quality forage than ruminants because they have a different digestive tract. Horses can digest forage that is high in fibre because it can move through quicker and won't get piled up in the stomach like that will happen with most ruminants.
