2nd Cutting Perfect Blend Timothy Hay, Food for Guinea Pig, Rabbit, Hamster, Bunny, Chinchilla, or Other Small Animals, Natural Hay Grown in The USA, 40lb

Our family adopted two bunnies and a guinea pig, and this is the only hay we purchase. The quality, freshness and care with which it’s packed make it superior to any other product we’ve tried. All hay is not created equal, and after doing our research, this is- by far- the best hay we’ve found. Our bunnies are absolutely obsessed with the box when it arrives. Quality hay is essential for their diet, and they just can’t seem to get enough of it. It’s not only great for their digestive health, it’s also wonderful for their teeth. We care about our pets and spent a lot of time selecting products that would help them live a long and healthy life. Small Pet Select is a company we trust, and the only hay we will buy.

I rarely put a review but I love this box of hay so much that I have to! My bunnies are picky about hay and usually they can tell when it's bad hay. I used to go for oxbow timothy hay but they werent consistent; some batches are just bad depending on the season. But this box has always been consistent and full to the brim! My bunnies love it! I can tell because they rarely scatter the pieces. If they hate it, they'll throw it around looking for good pieces of hay. Please dont ever go out of business 😂

My bunnies love this hay. They don’t waste it as much as they do with regular Timothy grass. The second cut is on point! The color looks fresh. The texture of it is soft enough and not too firm and the bunnies seem to love the taste. My favorite part about this boxes is that it’s not so packed in stuffed tight that I can’t pull out the hay (unlike oxbow who drives me nuts I can’t pull the hay out it’s so overstuffed packed too tight). This is safe for my bunnies to use then I know the only ingredient is Timothy hay. We haven’t found any weird things in our box. Some people find smooshed mice or rocks in other brands, but we haven’t found anything concerning.

Great hay for the price.

First of all, I vastly underestimated how much 12 lbs of hay is - my guinea pigs will probably have hay from this box for several months - that said, one good thing is you get a LOT for your money. I will likely get a smaller box next time - I have a small apartment and I've to keep the box outside on the (covered) porch - the hay has not gotten moldy or discolored or anything. The first thing I noticed about the hay is how GOOD it smelled - it was so fresh. My piggies are very picky so it took a while for them to come around to it - they'd previously been on a bagged hay from the pet store and I think that's all they've ever known (I got them as rescues about a year ago so I'm unsure what they were eating before that). But now they seem to love it. My only complaint is I didn't realize that the hay was not in a bag in the box so I opened this box in my apartment and got hay all over the carpet. I know the reasons for this - that it stays fresher in the box, but I wish I'd known this so I could have opened it outside - I've since relocated it to two plastic garbage bags, but reading through the reviews it seems paper is the way to go so I will be purchasing small paper bags to make little hay snack bags for my piggies. That being said, I will definitely buy this hay again now that I know what to do and I will likely buy a smaller box.

When I first got my bunny as a baby I was feeding him alfalfa hay along with other veggies and a few pellets - he was already eating regular food. The thing with the alfalfa hay is that he was picking out the softer stuff and leaving behind the "sticks", so when it came time to invest in hay my first purchase from SPS was 3rd cutting because it is "softer" - so I bought the 40lb box. I have done farm work in the past and I know about hay. My first impression was of how there was so much brown and so little green. I thought that would change as I used the hay but it didn't change much, and it turns out as an adult my bunny preferred the crunchier stuff. That wasn't a problem because there was plenty of crunchy stuff, but then we came to the last 1/3 of the box, which was all shreds, fluffy stuff and dusty stuff. I needed to buy more hay, and now knowing he prefers the crunchier stuff, I chose to purchase the 25lb box of second cutting from SPS. Wow! It was like night and day! 100% green, highly compressed (the top of the box was bulging when I got it) and the bunny absolutely loves it and is now eating more hay. I didn't even keep going with the old box, and I think this 25lb box is going to last longer than the bigger one! I have nothing to complain about with my purchase of second cutting, and have since found out that most bunnies are fed second cutting unless they are older and need softer hay, or picky eaters. The thing I know about 3rd cutting is that it is the one MOST affected by summer - whether there are dry conditions and for how long, etc. This product came perfectly packed, UPS dropped it a day early, and the quality of the hay is top notch. I will probably stick with this brand and second cutting now for the foreseeable future, and would recommend Small Pet Select.

***update, reached out to support they sent me a 20lbs box of Orchard grass as replacement. It was a super easy process and very much appreciate it! The animals are loving the orchard, good quality replacement. 1 star review went to 5 stars***** I feel bad leaving a poor review. But I honestly so upset with this quality. This is my second time purchasing the 25lbs box. First time was AMAZING. Arrived well before estimated date, soooooooooo full, like as soon you open the box be prepared for it to explode aha. And the quality of hay was phenomenal. I have guinea pigs, rabbits, and a chinchilla. Guinea pigs will eat anything. Rabbits are picky, and chinchilla is even pickier! Tried many brands, and local hay, but the first time I bought the pet select hay was the first time I had ever seen so little hay wasted. Even the chinchilla was eating 50% of the hay (normally he only eats 5%, so dang picky lol) . So I was excited to purchase again, but now this one, idk if it’s just a bad batch. Or if my first experience was just a. Really good batch. But this one feels sooo much like straw. Now even my guinea pigs who normally eat 95% plus of the hay I put in the rack are hardly eating 50% of it. They throwing it all to the side because it’s so hard and straw like. I’m hoping as I go through the box it gets better... but dang :( My fingers are crossed that this is just a fluke because that first purchase experience was amazing. But if the rest are like this then I’m definitely better off buying the local stuff.

Parentesi: Mi secca pagare così tanto del fieno. È fieno. Letteralmente erba tagliata. Spesso vado in fattoria e compro una balla che fra un po' non sta in una grossa macchina e fra un po' manco si vogliono far pagare, per dire. Alla fine riempo una macchina con 20€ e sono contenti. Chiusa questa parentesi, magari sono tirchio io, dunque do 5 stelle per il semplice fatto che questo fieno è piaciuto moltissimo. Saltellano d'appertutto.

heureusement je l'avais commandé avant le reblocage des frontières du royaume-uni. super foin, très bien emball" dans une belle boite en carton, livrée telle qu'elle. mais le livreur du dpd l'a déposé dans un point relais sans passer à mon domicile.. grrr;.. à3 bornes de chez moi...Bon sinon très satisfaite mais mes lapins ne se ruent pas dessus. à défaut d'autres qui sont moins épais et plus courts... dommage. Moi je le trouve très vert et avec des bouts de plantes et herbes séchées.. top quoi. mais c'est pas moi qui le mange. par contre superbe odeur..je le mettrais bien ds ma terre d'oreiller pour faire de beaux rêves .. :-)

I’m so happy that this is shipped to SG! I’ve heard so many good reviews from overseas but never really had the chance to try this brand. Needless to say, our buns were so happy with the new batch of hay! They immediately hopped on to the buffet of hay when I opened the box (yes, upon delivery, they knew it was for them). Can I say that the hay was so well packaged too! Not damaged in any way! Hay was top notch quality, super green and fresh! Do note that there’s quite abit of stems so your bunnies can’t be too fussy! It’ll definitely be one of my repeated purchase!

I have been a long time Small Pet Select customers. We have been using for 6 years since we were in USA and now in Dubai. This is the third time i purchased the hay after we cane to Dubai, the previous 2 times what not bad but not good. We bought the 2nd cut, but when we received it, it seems like it was mixed with both 1st and 2nd hay. But it is ok my buns still happily eating it. This time when we received it, after have been waiting for 2weeks, we were excited to open the box but soon disappointed to find brown and wet hay full of ants , It has damp smell too. Seems like it has been in the storage for a long time and not taken proper care at stowage. Unfortunately there is nowhere i can upload the pic for videos here. I tried to contact the seller immediately but no reply at all. I have request for refund and replace from Amazon but there is not refundable nor replacement. There are very good reviews but the customers are not from UAE. Be aware if you decided to buy.
