About This Item

Details

  • Oxbow’s Western Timothy Grass Hay is hand-selected by Owner John Miller himself. John is a fifth generation farmer who understands and recognizes quality hay. That’s why every bag of Oxbow hay is hand-packed, quality-assured and guaranteed to meet the nutritional needs of your pet.
  • Grass hay is absolutely vital to the health of small herbivores. It provides not only fiber, but environmental enrichment that mimics your pet’s natural habitat. As the caregiver, it is your responsibility to offer your pet hay every day.
  • Grown without the use of chemical, this product is 100% organically grown. Offer your pet what they would naturally forage for in the wild!
  • Hay is a variable product because it is grown in natural conditions. Each season creates hay that will look, feel and taste different. Composed of a variety of naturally-occurring hays.
  • Botanical Hay can be fed free choice to rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, prairie dogs and other herbivores as an alternative to timothy, oat hay, and brome. Free-choice means that the feed is available at all times. If they finish what is given, you need to give them more! Hay should not only be used for nutritional purposes, but also for mental stimulation and the promotion of natural foraging behavior

Is the botanical hay save to give my 3 month old bunny as a treat. Or wait until she is older?

Answer by ChewyNov 09, 2020
This hay can be fed freely to young, nursing, and pregnant animals, but should only be offered in small amounts to all other adult animals.

Can this used for hamsters?

Answer by ChewyOct 29, 2022
Botanical Hay is a great enrichment option for hamsters.

Can n my sulcata tortoise eat this?

Answer by ChewyNov 17, 2021
Many grassland species of tortoises do benefit and enjoy eating hay. However, we do recommend working with your trusted exotics veterinarian when debating about your tortoise's diet, they have a personal relationship with your pet and will be the best source of information for you. While this Botanical Hay is likely a safe option it has not been tested in tortoises specifically.

My bunny stopped eating OXBOW Hay

I tried all the different hay from OXBOW, and he liked 1 but overtime, he stopped. I kept buying them as a way to line the box and put the Natural Behavior hay mix

I tried all the different hay from OXBOW, and he liked 1 but overtime, he stopped. I kept buying them as a way to line the box and put the Natural Behavior hay mix that he munched on. My bunny passed away in August.
