Small Pet Select Second Cut Timothy Hay Small Animal Food

Decided to try Small Pet Select hay since my pet sitter swears by it for her bunny and Oxbow was beginning to seem so dry and wow ...the price went way up. My bunnies binky for this hay. This particular product is no longer available on Chewy so now I'm on auto ship directly with Small Pet Select.

Our first 10-lb box we tried was 1st cut and this 12-lb box is 2nd cut about one month in. I’ll probably stick with 2nd cut box now because my rabbit pulls out and wastes too much of long stalkier pieces that 1st cut hay is — it’s more of a personal problem for me haha. I might get ambitious and eventually mix the two, so he still gets the crunchy pieces to help wear his teeth down. I don’t want to bash other Timothy hay brands here, but I’ve tried other higher name brands. I will say I understand imperfections like small pieces/dust and brown hay happens, so I’m not quick to criticize. Small Pet Select is definitely a winner for us!

I was strictly an Oxbow customer until the quality of their hay went to heck. I bought the biggest bag/box and more than half of the package was thrown away due to the dust and stale pieces that my girls wouldn’t even want to use to go to the bathroom. My vet recommended small pet select so I decided to give it a try. My girls now wheek every time I go towards the hay to get more out the loudest I have ever heard them wheek before!! I did notice my box did have a lot of twigs with roots and short pieces that turned to dust but I am hoping that it was just a bad batch and will give it another try.

The Small Pet Select Timothy hay smells fresh like it was just harvested so I think all the buns like it and enjoy burrowing in it. It's the baby bunnies first hay. And it's packed so you can life out just the right amount instead of wrestling it out of a bag.

This is my 2nd box of Small Pet Select 2nd cut Timothy Hay. After years of throwing away poor quality hay that my piggie refused to eat, I decided to try a higher quality product. Her reaction was immediate! She dove into the huge pile that I put in her cage and "mowed it down" from the inside out. The hay is green and fresh, with minimal waste. (She won't eat the tiniest bits, because she's a bit of a princess piggie...) It is also mind-blowing the enormous amount that the company packs into the box. I definitely recommend and definitely will buy again. P.S. my cat loves it, too!

I usually get first cut hay for my guinea pigs but thought I would give the second cut a go as it is supposed to be softer. The hay is the usual good quality that I expected from this brand, green and healthy. It was softer, however this meant that my piggies took to using it as their bedding and I ended up wasting a lot of hay. This hay also has a lot less seed heads than first cut which my piggies love to eat (not a fault of the brand, just a result of being second cut). Overall it was a good quality and would recommend if second cut is what you want. My piggies are much happier with first cut so will be sticking with that.

I bought this small pet select hay after my oxbow hay ran out because I heard it is the best option for hay. I can definitely see it is good quality. It's leafy and green, with no brown or stick-like pieces I sometimes found in the oxbow hay. My guinea pigs also like the hay! I can't tell if they like it more than the old hay, but they definitely do not like it any less. I will be using this brand for my guinea pigs' hay from now on.

This hay is the best one on the market, I have been using this for a while now and it does not disappoint. I used other brands before and small pet select is the best. The hay is nice and green, great texture for the piggies, not dusty, and have a great amount of seed heads that my piggies absolutely adore. Small pet select is always very consistent on their products as well. Other brands I purchased before were dusty, not a vibrant green, rocks inside, so small pet select was a lifesaver for me in choosing an elite quality hay. Also, I heard of this brand from Saskia of LA Guinea Pig Rescue and from a comparison with other brands she also mentioned this is one of the best.

This box is huge and inside is yummy hay for your creatures. I have bunnies and they enjoy the hay. The box is huge and a little awkward. I'll order this product again because you can tell the quality of the hay, I just had to make room for the box it comes in.

I bought this hay for the first and I absolutely love it. More importantly so do my rabbits. With other hay I always have run into a lot of small pieces and not good long pieces. Definitely not a problem with this hay. Will definitely be buying again! Also a 12lb box is what I bought I think it’s a good price for the amount.
