Product Information

Full details

HayDay Sweet and Munchy Ryegrass Hay is a premium, long-stem forage designed for small pets like rabbits, guinea pigs, degus, and chinchillas who need both dietary enrichment and digestive support. Grown in the British countryside and barn-dried for maximum quality, this hay provides a sweet, palatable boost to a small animal's primary diet; however, it is best used as a complementary feeding hay rather than a sole source of nutrition.

FAQs

Is this hay safe for guinea pigs?

Yes, it is perfectly safe and highly beneficial for guinea pigs as a complementary part of their diet.

Can I feed this as the only hay my rabbit eats?

No, this is a complementary hay. It should be fed alongside a base of high-quality meadow or Timothy hay to ensure a balanced nutritional intake.

Does this hay contain artificial flavors?

No, the sweetness is entirely natural, derived from the quality of the British-grown ryegrass and the careful barn-drying process.

How should I store this product?

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally in an airtight container to preserve freshness.

What is the fiber content of this hay?

This hay contains 26% crude fibre, which is excellent for supporting healthy gut movement.

Troubleshooting

Pet is refusing to eat the hay

Ensure the hay is fresh and hasn't been exposed to humidity; try placing it in a new enrichment toy to stimulate interest.

Visible dust in the bag

While dust-extracted, some small particles can settle during transit; gently shake the handful before placing it in the habitat.
