Small animals will find it hard to resist the sweet smell and taste of Oxbow Orchard Grass Hay! This high-fibre hay has a soft texture and is low in protein to support the health of small herbivores by stimulating digestion, preventing obesity and promoting dental care. There is absolutely no artificial colouring, flavouring and preservatives. This product can be mixed with other Oxbow grass hays to create a nutritious, appetising combination.
Orchard Grass 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.
Try feeding hay in new and inventive ways to increase consumption.
Rabbits like to eat hay in their litter box.

How much do I feed daily?
It should be fed free choice daily. That means the hay should be available at all times. 75% of a small herbivore's diet should be hay.
