Oxbow Timothy & Orchard Hay

As hay is the main food for your rabbit’s digestive health and for good dental wear, it is essential to provide them with as much hay as they want. By providing your rabbit with as much good quality hay as he wants, you will also promote natural chewing behavior and help prevent all the dental problems that are so common in these small herbivores. Timothy hay and Orchard hay blend is recommended by veterinarians because it is low in calcium and protein.  American hay is completely different from the others. First of all, it is very green, the strands are thick, dense and with a completely different smell than the hays you can find in France. So of course, it is a Super Premium hay which has a certain cost but I think that quality must be rewarded and that the good health of our darlings has no price ;-). The long and thick fibers will improve your rabbit’s digestive system. This blend will also prevent the formation of soft stools, slow digestive system, dental problems and the risk of obesity. It is also important to know that when your rabbit spends a long time chewing, it keeps him busy and brings him closer to his natural environment. Why should we blend hays? As for humans, it is good to diversify the nutritional intake. This mix of Timothy hay and orchard hay will only be beneficial to your rabbits.

How much hay should I feed each day?

Personally, my 7 rabbits have access to their hay H24 a day, it is also interesting to mix the hays to have different nutritional contributions.

The litter box with hay rack allows the rabbit to eat their hay while pooping. Be sure to leave a bowl of fresh water available for your rabbit.
