Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay for Small Animals 

Premium Fiber-Rich Hay for Rabbits, Guinea Pigs, and Chinchillas

Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay is a hand-selected, high-fiber hay harvested at the ideal stage to ensure maximum nutrition and flavor for small animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas.

Unlike other hays, Oxbow Oat Hay is cut before the oat fully matures, giving it a savory taste and a unique texture that small pets love, with husks that enhance its fiber-rich benefits. The natural crunch and enticing aroma are perfect for stimulating your pet's appetite and promoting healthy, continuous hay consumption, which is essential for both digestive and dental health.

What are the Key Benefits of Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay?

  • Natural Crunch and Flavor : The distinct texture of oat husks offers a satisfying crunch and savory taste that small pets naturally crave, encouraging regular eating habits and enriching their diet.

  • High Fiber Content : With a maximum of 32% fiber, this oat hay supports optimal digestive health, aiding in nutrient absorption and reducing the risk of gastrointestinal issues common in small animals.

  • Dental Health Support : The fibrous texture of Oxbow Oat Hay helps to wear down teeth naturally, preventing dental overgrowth—a common issue in small pets.

  • Freshly Harvested from Trusted Farms : Grown specifically for small pets and harvested fresh from Oxbow’s family of farms, this oat hay offers consistent quality, flavor, and nutrients with every batch.

FAQs - Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay for Small Animals

What is so special about Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay?

Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay stands out for its unique harvesting process—cut just before the oat matures into a seed, it retains savory husks that small pets find irresistible. Its crunchy texture and high fiber content make it a powerful addition to support digestive and dental health, while its fresh farm-to-pet quality ensures top-grade nutrition and taste in each bite.

Can Oxbow Oat Hay be used as the sole hay for my pet?

While Oxbow Oat Hay is high in fiber and very nutritious, a mix of different grass hays like Timothy or Orchard hay is ideal. Different hays provide varied textures and flavors, helping ensure a balanced diet that meets all your pet's nutritional needs.

Is Oat Hay suitable for pets with sensitive digestion?

Yes, Oxbow Oat Hay is naturally high in fiber, which aids in smooth digestion and can be suitable for pets with sensitive digestive systems. However, introduce it gradually to observe for any sensitivity or allergy, as individual needs vary.

How can I store Oxbow Oat Hay to keep it fresh?

Store Oxbow Oat Hay in a cool, dry area, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to maintain its freshness and prevent mold. Using an airtight container can help extend the hay’s shelf life while keeping it fragrant and palatable for your pet.

Is Oat Hay dust-free, and why is this important?

Oxbow Animal Health carefully processes Oat Hay to reduce dust, which is beneficial for pets’ respiratory health. Low-dust hay minimizes irritation and makes it suitable for pets prone to respiratory issues, offering a safer feeding experience.

How does Oat Hay benefit my pet’s dental health?

Oxbow Oat Hay’s fibrous texture helps wear down continuously growing teeth in small pets, reducing the risk of dental overgrowth and promoting optimal oral health. Chewing hay is a natural way for pets to manage their dental health without needing additional intervention.

Can I give Oat Hay to pets besides rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas?

Yes, Oxbow Oat Hay is suitable for other small animals like hamsters and gerbils, though the quantity may vary. Always check with a veterinarian to confirm the best type and amount of hay for pets beyond rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas.

How much Oat Hay should my pet eat daily?

Offer unlimited access to fresh Oat Hay throughout the day, allowing your pet to eat as needed. Hay should make up most of their diet to ensure they receive adequate fiber for both digestive and dental health, especially for rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas.

Can Oat Hay cause weight gain in small pets?

Oat Hay is low in fat and provides high fiber, which typically doesn’t lead to weight gain. Its primary purpose is for digestion and dental support rather than calories. Overeating isn’t a concern, as hay is a natural staple and is not associated with obesity in small animals.

How does Oat Hay differ from other grass hays?

Oat Hay has a unique texture, flavor, and aroma due to its husks, harvested before oats mature into seeds. It’s slightly more textured than Timothy hay, providing extra crunch and interest, while still delivering the same high fiber content ideal for small pets’ health.
