There is no such thing as an "average" dairy cow. As such this leaves this question virtually unanswerable because it depends on various factors including:

  • Weight of the cow
  • Body condition of the cow (thin or fat)
  • Cow's rate of intake or daily rate of intake (which is affected by the cow's weight and body condition, as mentioned above, as well as breed)
  • If the cow is lactating or not
  • Quality of the hay (high protein low fibre or vice versa)
  • Weight (which can affect size) of the hay bale
  • If the cow is being supplemented with other feed or not

There is no one answer to that question.
