I normally buy Oxbow Timothy hay but the last time I bought some, there was a huge bag of Kaytee hay (94 oz I think) for cheaper than the 40 oz bag.
I used up the smaller Oxbow bags and kept the large one for last so I'd have more time to get more hay. The Oxbow hay is nice and soft, with lots of grass-like pieces and those furry bits ( which my older bunny loves), they have some harder stems too but not lots. The Kaytee hay has a LOT of the harder stems (which my younger bunny likes) but he doesn't eat a ton of hay yet. The hay is mostly those hard bits and stems which my older bunny hates - I tell you once these two are bonded, no hay will go to waste) but right now he's tossing all those hard bits somost of the hay is going to waste. Even the smaller bag of Kaytee - the one with the dried mango - has much of the harder bits.
Did I just get a bad batch or are they all like this? Like I ended up getting a batch of Oxbow that was mostly brown.
Anyone else notice this? I'm wondering what the farmer hay is gonna look like.
