It has just the right amount of protein and fiber. Your Animal should have an unlimited supply of fresh hay at all times, to prevent GI stasis and digestive issues...and keep you out of the vet office. Hay is also the main way our little friends keep those teeth worn down, so hay for everyone! is your Animal bored and not eating enough? try mixing in some orchard hay, orchard medley, or our super special gourmet hay! our herbal blends can help renew interest too. Quality characteristics of 2Nd cutting "perfect blend": 1. Leafy with soft stem and adequate flower heads. 2. Easy and enjoyable for pets to eat while providing sufficient fiber. 3. The texture and fiber is in between 1St cutting and 3rd cutting. Many people consider 2Nd cutting to be the best of both worlds, and it is the most popular hay we sell. Review: Absolutely love SPS - 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! Review: Impressed - 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. ## Features - Hand-Selected Timothy Hay - We hand-pack each box in small batches to ensure only the highest quality 100% US-grown 2nd cut Timothy hay arrives at your door. 2nd cut Timothy hay is a perfect balance of stem, seed head , and leaf to provide the rough fiber needed for normal wear to healthy teeth and yummy features with a fresh smell to keep them coming back for more. - Earth-Friendly Packaging - As small animal owners, we know the importance of packing delicious snacks in safe ways for our small animal companions. No compression packing here that damages stem and leaf integrity, each package is shipped in a high-strength corrugated box for easy storage (and fun digging!). - Minimally Handled & Delivered Fresh - Make it easy to provide exactly what your little friend needs with regular shipments of fresh from the farm hay to wear down growing teeth and protect digestive health. Each delivery of premium Timothy hay for rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas includes a great mix of protein, fiber and fat to keep them healthy. Your small pet may not thank you with words, but happy oinks and binkies will make you feel like the pet owner of the year. - Great for Bedding - In addition to being a crucial part of many small pet diets, Timothy hay also makes cozy bedding for hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats, ferrets and more. Since most of us aren’t up for doing laundry with tiny duvets, hay makes a wonderful, fresh smelling alternative that they will love to snuggle into. - 100% Satisfaction Guarantee! - For you and your pets. We know pets can be picky. If your bunny (or piggy or chinny) stomps and turns up her nose, you can still rest easy. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B075ZZ1FJK | | Additional Features | Hand-packed in small batches, delivered fresh with a 100% satisfaction guarantee | | Age Range (Description) | Adult | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Dairy Free | | Animal Food Diet Type | Veterinary Diet | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,458 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #9 in Small Animal Food | | Brand | Small Pet Select | | Brand Name | Small Pet Select | | Breed Recommendation | Small Breeds | | Container Type | Bag | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 9,380 Reviews | | Dog Breed Size | Small | | Flavor | Timothy Hay | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00611138712415 | | Included Components | Small Pet Select 2nd Cutting "Perfect Blend" Timothy Hay Pet Food, 2-Pound | | Item Form | Stem | | Item Type Name | Tim2nd2 | | Item Weight | 2 pounds | | Manufacturer | Small Pet Select -- Dropship | | Manufacturer Part Number | Tim2nd2 | | Model Number | Tim2nd2 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Package Size Name | 2lb | | Pet Type | Small Animal | | Product Benefits | Keeps teeth healthy and provides essential fiber | | Recommended Uses For Product | Dietary staple for small pets, dental health | | Special Ingredients | Timothy Grass | | Specific Uses For Product | Teeth | | Target Species | Rabbit, Guinea Pig, Chinchilla, Degus, Tortoise | | UPC | 611138712415 850044717569 | | Unit Count | 32 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Brand:** Small Pet Select - **Flavor:** Timothy Hay - **Item Form:** Stem - **Specific Uses For Product:** Teeth ## Images ![2nd Cutting Timothy Hay for Rabbits & Guinea Pigs, 2 lb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81ndViUnDDL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What kind of cutting is this? 1st, 2nd, or 3rd? What is better to give a rabbit?** A: I've been buying timothy hay from Small Pet Select for about a year now. The cut depends on the time of year. They sell 1st cut and 2nd cut. This box was 2nd cut. It is still a much better quality then the local chain stores. And I love that it is delivered right to my house in a great storage box. They have a link on their page about the 1st and 2nd cut. http://smallpetselect.com/2nd-cut-timothy-hay-for-rabbits Hope this helps. :0) **Q: I've noticed lots of brown parts in this hay. Is that normal? It seems to get brown very quickly.** A: Hay will have some brown in it which is normal, although the second cutting has been very consistent in containing very little brown. If you feel that the hay has an unusual amount of brown please contact us and we make sure to resolve right away, thanks. **Q: Is this hay sun dried?** A: Yes, 2nd Cutting Timothy Hay is sun dried. **Q: Is this hay processed in a facility with nuts or peanuts? Does it say anywhere on the box? Thanks!** A: It's hand-picked and packaged in small batches. It's also 100% Timothy hay. Really excellent quality- my bunny gives it two ears up! I used to get the 2nd cutting, but now I get the 1st cutting since it is coarser so, IMO, better for the dental health of my bunny. Great company with excellent cutomer service & FAST shipping! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love SPS *by J***R on April 2, 2026* I’ve always had a great experience with Small Pet Select—it’s always a win in our house.
