Choosing the Best Hay for Your Small Pet

Not all hay is created equal! Choosing the right hay for your pet depends on their age, health, and taste preferences.

1st Cut vs 2nd Cut Hay

  • 1st cut: Coarser, more fibrous, great for dental health.
  • 2nd cut: Softer, leafier, often preferred by picky eaters.

Types of Hay

  • Timothy Hay: High fiber, supports digestion and teeth
  • Orchard Grass: Soft, sweet, easy to chew
  • Meadow Grass: Mild flavor, gentle on sensitive tummies

Storage & Freshness Tips

  • Store hay in a dry, cool place.
  • Check for mold or dust before feeding.

Conclusion: Choosing the right hay ensures pets receive the fiber and nutrition they need while keeping them happy and engaged.
