2nd Cutting Timothy Hay for Rabbits & Guinea Pigs, 2 lb

I’ve always had a great experience with Small Pet Select—it’s always a win in our house. My bun goes crazy every time he gets a fresh new box. After ordering all three cuts, I’ve noticed my bunny definitely prefers (and goes more crazy over) 2nd cut. I had gotten 1st cut the past two times, then just switched back to 2nd cut again, and this time I noticed I can’t seem to keep his hay bin full. By the time I go to refill it, there are literally just scraps left. So now I know—it’s 2nd cut for him. I’ve bought 1st, 2nd, and Value, and they’re all good, so I definitely recommend trying them all to find the cut your pet likes best. I usually get the 10–12 lb box, and it lasts my single bunny a long time since I fill his bin once a day. The 2nd cut still has a lot of the toppers my bun absolutely loves, and the nice, firm/hard dry hay is great for his dental and gut health—definitely a must-have for bunnies. I know there are some reviews mentioning issues, but it’s important to note that this is a great company and what they stand for is amazing. Things happen, and it’s ultimately our responsibility to double-check what we give our pets. We check our kids’ candy at Halloween (and in general), so why wouldn’t we check what we give our pets too? They also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee—if you’re not happy with your box, you can get your money back or a replacement. I personally haven’t had any major issues. One box had some hay that was a little on the browner side, but there was still plenty of good hay. I just left what I didn’t use in the box, tossed it later, and still felt like I got my money’s worth. Absolutely love Small Pet Select!

My bunnies have had an attitude recently when it comes to their hat. Nothing pleases them. They were in their outside enclosure when this arrived so I went ahead and fed them outside. As soon as the hay hit the ground, they were in it face first. They both approved. The color was nice and green. There was almost no dust. It smelled fresh. Perfect for picky buns.

Product was good like it always has been and was a good deal again. My guinea pigs really like it.

I've been ordering Small Pet Select hay for quite awhile now, and while the hay is great, the customer service is even better. With hay being a natural product, there are inevitably going to be issues once and awhile. Each time the Small Pet Select crew have gone above and beyond to help, and they are incredibly easy to get ahold of. I've usually contacted them over FB with a message to their business page and they are very quick to respond. Now, onto the hay. The 2nd cut timothy hay they offer is not only the best hay I've been able to find, it's often cheaper than others when I buy in the 20 or 25lb boxes. It's always a lovely shade of green, and the smell is just so perfect! My chinchillas and bunnies are always so excited for "Fresh Hay Day!", which is the day the new shipment of hay comes in. With my two chinchillas and two rabbits (one of them being a 14lb continental giant!), I go through about 20lbs every 6 to 7 weeks, so being able to get this quality and quantity of hay shipped right to be has been a blessing. And speaking of shipping, it often arrives quicker than Amazon estimates, usually only taking two to three business days after it ships from a SPS warehouse. (They don't store their hay at Amazon warehouses, they ship from one of their own warehouses. I asked them myself, so don't worry about getting hay that's been lingering in the Amazon warehouse for forever!) My little critters just eat it right up, and it keeps their tummies happy and consistent! The strands are often really long which the bunnies love, but can be too much for the chinchillas to handle, so I tend to cut bundles in half length wise for the chinchillas. A good pair of kitchen or garden shears is best for this if you choose that route. Just make sure they're clean. TLDR; Great hay, even better customer service. Order it!

My rabbit loves the hay. I had the box sitting up against his pen’s side and he was trying to stick his head out to get to the box. I think that the piece fit well in his hay area. I also don’t have sneezing and itchy eyes after feeding him this hay. I wish that it was packaged a little different. The hay is just loose in the box, making it neccessary for me to find an alternative container to store it in.

My guinea pig is 2.5 years old, and I have used their hay the majority of the time I have had him. When I got my guinea pig, he was very picky and didn't like any brand of hay until I got this. I have had 9 other guinea pigs over the years, and I wish I had been able to use this hay for them too. It has been consistently much higher quality than what I used to buy at the pet store. There have been occasional boxes with a little bit of brown or drier hay, but it is usually very green and smells fresh. I haven't had issues with finding other things in the hay either which can sometimes be an issue with a natural product like this (bits of animal, rope, etc). I highly recommend this hay especially if you have a picky pig.

I ordered this hay from Small Pet Select in the first place because it said it was 2nd cutting quality blend but, I was greatly disappointed. I don't even believe this is 2nd cutting because it looks and feels like 1st cuttings. I was so upset especially for the price I paid. The hay smells good but not great, the texture is coarse and rough definitely not the 2nd cutting hay from High Dessert I previously purchased on Amazon. This hay from Small Pet Select is very dusty, rough, and plenty of seed heads that make me believe I didn't receive the quality 2nd cutting hay promised in the product description. My guinea pigs will not eat it, they will eat just about about anything but they refused to eat it this hay. I had to make a emergency order to High Desert for their hay because my pets simply weren't eating the hay instead they were just used the Small Pet hay to lay on. Not happy, not soft, or anything promised. Amazon really needs to do better about the description given on the site because I really use and rely on the information they provide about the products. This hay is bad NOT good, terrible quality, it's dry, coarse, with plenty of seed heads, very dusty and it definitely doesn't seem as advertised.

This hay is great my rabbit is really picky about her hay and almost never eats it but after getting this she's always eating it and she loves it so much

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.

I wasn't sure about buying this at first because it is almost 2-3x more what I pay for local hay, however I was getting frustrated at the inconsistency and usually a lot of browned hay I was getting. This is my first order of SPS hay but I am completely happy with the quality of hay that was in the box. Not only is it a nice deep green, but there is minimal dust and a lot less broken pieces, longer strands for optimal munching! I do see less wasted by my buns, usually they will leave a lot of broken pieces in their box. EDITED I have 3 buns and this box lasted me about 3 weeks!

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 .. :-)

My guinea pigs love this hay and now have it on subscription direct from the supplier. Nice and fresh and smells lovely. It is more expensive than other brands, but compared to other brands seems to have better quality. I store it in the box in the garage, and it has lasted a while.

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!
