herbivores? Oxbow Western Timothy Hay is the ideal long-strand
fiber source for keeping small animal digestive tracts functioning
properly. Our most popular grass hay—with high fiber, low protein
and low calcium content—is widely recommended by veterinarians.

industry standard
Western Timothy grass hay with high-fiber, low-protein and
low-calcium content, helps keep the gastrointestinal tract of
rabbits and small herbivores functioning properly.
Western Timothy hay will help prevent obesity, maintain a
healthy urinary system and improve overall health. A high-fiber
diet will also lower the incidence of soft stools, intestinal gas
and bloating. Timothy hay is the most widely recommended hay by
veterinarians for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and other
herbivores. Its fresh fragrance encourages
consumption.
Hay is absolutely vital to the health of small herbivores. It
provides not only nutrition, but environmental enrichment that
mimics the animal's natural habitat. Western Timothy provides a
long-strand fiber source that is needed to improve the digestive
and intestinal function by stimulating the digestive
system.
Feeding animals free-choice hay promotes a natural chewing
behavior and helps prevent molar spurs and other teeth problems so
common in these small herbivores.
Free-choice means that the feed is available at all times. If
they finish what you give them, you need to give them more! Hay
should be used not only for nutritional purposes, but for mental
stimulation and the promotion of natural foraging
behavior.
