Nutrient-Rich Flakes for Young & Nursing Herbivores
Product Description
Sunseed SunSations Natural Alfalfa Hay is sourced from 100% North American sun-cured alfalfa and compressed into convenient 32 oz mini-bales. Each bale expands into easy-feed flakes, delivering high fiber (33%), protein (8%), and calcium (1.5%) to support growth, lactation, and dental health in rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and other small herbivores.
Benefits
- Compact & Convenient: Compressed mini-bales break into uniform flakes for precise portioning and minimal waste during feeding.
- Growth & Reproductive Support: High crude protein (8%) and calcium (1.5%) provide essential nutrients for young, pregnant, or nursing animals.
- Digestive Health: Abundant fiber (33%) promotes gut motility and reduces the risk of gastrointestinal stasis.
- Dental Maintenance: Fibrous hay encourages natural chewing behavior, aiding in continuous tooth wear and preventing overgrowth.
- Pure & Natural: No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives – just wholesome alfalfa hay for safe, nutritious forage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is SunSations Alfalfa Hay suitable for adult rabbits?
Ans: Yes. While optimized for young and nursing animals, adult rabbits benefit from their fiber and calcium as an occasional treat alongside their primary timothy hay diet.
Q2: How does compressed format improve feeding?
Ans: Compression creates uniform flakes, simplifying portion control and reducing waste and mess compared to loose hay piles.
Q3: Which life stages need alfalfa hay most?
Ans: Alfalfa’s higher protein and calcium support rapid growth in juveniles and lactation in nursing pets, making it crucial during these life stages.
Q4: Can I mix SunSations flakes with other hay types?
Ans: Yes. Blend with timothy or orchard grass flakes to diversify fiber sources and textures for balanced nutrition and enrichment.
Q5: How should I store opened mini-bales?
Ans: Keep opened bales in a cool, dry place. Ensure packaging is resealed or transfer flakes to airtight containers to preserve freshness and prevent mold.
