Small Pet Select2nd Cutting Perfect Blend Timothy Hay Pet Food for Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, Chinchillas and Other Small Animals, Premium Natural Hay Grown in The US, 20 LB

Small Pet Select is the highest quality Timothy hay I have ever found. I have a picky Chinchilla and have tried almost every brand of hay out there. It is fresher and much higher quality than any else on the market. My Chinchilla loves it and wastes very little. I would highly recommend thier products.

Update 5/29/20:I’m so impressed with SPS during the COVID pandemic. Early on, I was worried that we wouldn’t be able to get hay delivered on time with Amazon delaying deliveries. I didn’t know if hay would be considered essential. I have it on subscription, and I received every delivery on time, including the extra oat hay I ordered. It was the one thing I haven’t had to worry about for the past few months. It also ensured that I could stay safe at home. I’m thankful for everyone who made it possible for me to provide for my bunnies during these extraordinary times. It really says a lot about this company.OP:I’ve been ordering various hays from Small Pet Select for a year now; timothy 2, orchard, and oat. I used to drive 45 minutes to the shelter to pick up hay for my three bunnies, but that is difficult with my schedule. I also couldn’t consistently find retail bags of hay at local stores or even here on Amazon. Orders of Oxbow hay and pellets would get delayed, leaving me scrambling to keep my buns properly fed. And let’s be honest, retail bags of hay are ridiculously expensive for the amount of stale hay you get. I’m also careful not to buy blends that contain additives and lack nutritional value for my adult buns (e.g. alfalfa). I do not buy brands like Kaytee or any of those other small pet brands that willingly and knowingly sell food with fillers that can cause serious GI problems for *all* small pets.After a year of subscribing to SPS, I have to say I’m very happy with the hay. Out of 21 deliveries, only one box appeared a little yellower than usual, and bunnies still happily devoured the box. Every box looks and smells fresh, and is packed neatly to the brim. Once we’re done with it, we break it down and throw it in our recycling bin. There is minimal waste. My buns go through two boxes (20 lbs.) a month, and we use it for both food and bedding. Unrelated, our cat also likes to sit in the hay with the buns. I really love how much time this saves me, and I never have to worry about keeping my buns fed and happy. I highly recommend SPS for the convenience and quality you get for the price.

When I first got my bunny as a baby I was feeding him alfalfa hay along with other veggies and a few pellets - he was already eating regular food. The thing with the alfalfa hay is that he was picking out the softer stuff and leaving behind the "sticks", so when it came time to invest in hay my first purchase from SPS was 3rd cutting because it is "softer" - so I bought the 40lb box. I have done farm work in the past and I know about hay. My first impression was of how there was so much brown and so little green. I thought that would change as I used the hay but it didn't change much, and it turns out as an adult my bunny preferred the crunchier stuff. That wasn't a problem because there was plenty of crunchy stuff, but then we came to the last 1/3 of the box, which was all shreds, fluffy stuff and dusty stuff.I needed to buy more hay, and now knowing he prefers the crunchier stuff, I chose to purchase the 25lb box of second cutting from SPS. Wow! It was like night and day! 100% green, highly compressed (the top of the box was bulging when I got it) and the bunny absolutely loves it and is now eating more hay. I didn't even keep going with the old box, and I think this 25lb box is going to last longer than the bigger one! I have nothing to complain about with my purchase of second cutting, and have since found out that most bunnies are fed second cutting unless they are older and need softer hay, or picky eaters. The thing I know about 3rd cutting is that it is the one MOST affected by summer - whether there are dry conditions and for how long, etc. This product came perfectly packed, UPS dropped it a day early, and the quality of the hay is top notch. I will probably stick with this brand and second cutting now for the foreseeable future, and would recommend Small Pet Select.

Mr rabbit legit only eats this hay. It must be real yummy for him. Since I only have one rabbit it also lasts us a long time. The box is pretty big but I’ve managed to find a good spot for it in my room.

I like the giant size. Came late which I wasn't happy with. Nothing broken, it smells good and no bugs.Con: it's messy, and it came brown. Some of the pieces weren't good at all and because it's too big I can't just carry it to there hay dispenser. I have to put in a bag and then carry it. I would have been much more happy at 2 6lbs rather than 1 12 lbs. So, for that reason 3 stars.The pros: economically friendly. They OHCOOL hay that they like is a splurge. It's not cheap. So, they need another brand. While I have that one on a monthly subscription I am still looking for a cheaper alternative. They didn't like the Kaytee one.I am not sure if they like this, yet. but this one will not be a monthly subscription just bc of the cons.Will comment further on if I notice that they like it. I just received a few days ago.Update Friday Oct 25th. I have had this for awhile. It seems well received by all my bunnies including the new 1 I got on Sept 13th. Once it was half way down I put the left over Kaytee brand that they don't like and I mixed it in and they didn't seem to notice.Once done, it's about a quarter and I mixed there new Oxbow hay. Bc of the high calorie, so they have a mix. I will continue to buy this and just mix hay in. So, if I buy the Kaytee brand it should go unnoticed. They still pick and choose but not as bad as bf. I also upped my review to 4 stars bc they were able to eat the Kaytee brand.I did buy a new shelving unit for this product only, ugh. That's okay, it fits nicer andi transfered some of they hay into bags
