The HayDay Coarse & Crunchy Alfalfa Hay is designed for rabbit and guinea pig owners who need a nutrient-dense feed to support growth, recovery, or breeding. Featuring high levels of protein and calcium, this premium legume hay offers superior support for young and developing small pets, though it should be used strategically as part of a balanced diet due to its high nutrient content compared to standard grass hays.

It is generally recommended for young, growing, or nursing rabbits. Adult, non-breeding rabbits typically require lower calcium and protein levels found in Timothy hay.
Yes, it is excellent for young or nursing guinea pigs, but should be used sparingly for healthy, non-pregnant adults.
Alfalfa is naturally brittle. The fine pieces are simply the leaf particles that have broken away during packing and shipping; they are safe and highly nutritious.
Keep it in a cool, dark, and dry location to maintain its nutritional integrity and prevent mold growth.
This hay contains 20% crude protein.
Mix the fine pieces with their favorite fresh vegetables or pellets to encourage consumption.
Reduce the portion size of the alfalfa hay and ensure they have unlimited access to standard Timothy or meadow grass hay.
To keep your HayDay Alfalfa fresh, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, ideally in a breathable container or the original packaging if it allows for airflow. Since this hay is a legume rather than a standard grass hay, monitor your pet's weight closely if they are not in a growth phase to ensure they do not consume too much. Always provide access to fresh water, as the higher protein content can increase the need for hydration. Because the delicate alfalfa leaves can naturally break down into finer pieces, try to scoop these smaller bits into a bowl rather than throwing them away, as they are still packed with nutrients.
