Store Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Use a breathable container like a cardboard box or fabric bag to allow airflow, which prevents mold growth and keeps the hay fresh, aromatic, and appetizing for your pet.

Is Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay suitable for young rabbits and guinea pigs?

Yes, Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay is safe for young rabbits and guinea pigs, but alfalfa hay, which is higher in protein and calcium, is often preferred for young animals. As they grow, transitioning to meadow or timothy hay helps maintain a balanced diet suited for adult nutritional needs.

How much Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay should I provide daily?

Small pets should have unlimited access to fresh hay daily, as hay is a critical component of their diet. Place generous handfuls of Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay in their habitat, replenishing as needed to ensure they always have fresh hay available for nibbling and nesting.

Why is fiber important in Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay for small animals?

Fiber is essential for digestive health in small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs. High-fiber hay aids in efficient digestion and helps prevent common issues like GI stasis, a potentially serious condition. Additionally, fiber keeps teeth naturally worn down, supporting dental health.

Can Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay help with weight management in small pets?

Yes, hay is a low-calorie, high-fiber food that encourages natural grazing behaviors, helping small pets maintain a healthy weight. By offering unlimited access to Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay, you promote satiety and support weight management as pets are less likely to overeat higher-calorie foods.

What types of grass are in Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay?

Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay typically includes a blend of orchard grass, timothy, brome, alfalfa, and clover. This variety of grasses provides multiple textures and flavors, enriching the diet and catering to the natural preferences of different small pets.

Is Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay dust-free and allergy-friendly?

Oxbow Organic Meadow Hay is carefully harvested and processed to minimize dust, making it more suitable for small pets with respiratory sensitivities. However, sensitive pets or owners may still experience mild dust; storing and handling hay in well-ventilated areas can reduce airborne particles.
