Grown Specifically for Small Pets

For decades, we’ve worked hand in hand with our family of farmers to grow premium hay that meets the specific nutritional needs and taste and texture preferences of even the pickiest rabbit, guinea pig, or chinchilla. In the field, our hay experts go the “extra acre” to evaluate key hay quality attributes including color, texture, maturity, and stem-to-leaf ratio.

High in Fiber for Digestive and Dental Health

Oxbow's product quality team samples, grades, and nutritionally tests our hay to make sure it’s up to the challenge of nourishing your pet. This includes 3rd party nutritional and food safety testing, and organoleptic analysis which assesses odor, flavor, appearance, and texture.

Premium Oxbow Quality

Oxbow hay is gently combed to loosen it from the bale. Next, we carefully sort out smaller pieces, removing any natural foreign materials. Finally, we extract as much natural dust from the hay as possible & expertly sort the hay by hand for that extra personal touch.

Customers like the softness of the pet food. They mention that it's fresh, fragrant, and a nice softer hay. Some say that it doesn't poke their hamsters in the eyes.

87 customers mention33 positive54 negative

Customers are mixed about the messiness of the pet food. Some mention that it's much less dusty, softer, and more of the hay seems to be eaten by the animals. They also like that the dust protects the bottom of the bag from getting hay pokes. However, others say that it is still a choppy, dusty mess with a good amount of field debris.

"It’s very stick like. But not messy and not long sticks but short. Some grassy hay and seems about right for my Piggy...." Read more

"...they are smaller and the hay is jammed in there tight which makes for a bit of dust and broken hay everytime you reach in the bag you have to pry it..." Read more

"It’s not really easy to pull out since it’s so tightly packed. Bunnies really love it though and it’s a good price." Read more

78 customers mention40 positive38 negative

"...(because they were all very brownish and stemy, so that almost made me felt that portion was more like..." Read more

"...Chose it over their dinner salad. The hay looks perfect.....Thank God!..." Read more

"...but now every other order it’s either half hay and dust or more brown dead hay than green and the Guinea Pigs refuse to eat it." Read more

looks like a bargain at first, but the quality is a bit disappointment
3 Stars
looks like a bargain at first, but the quality is a bit disappointment
It feels like a great bargain to buy this 9-lb box of Oxbow hay first time, but after buying it two times and seeing its variation of quality as I went through each box, I would start to consider smaller package of hay from Oxbow or from other brand. When I first opened the box, the hay quality on the top looked great (see the 1st picture; but strangely, for the second box I ordered, as soon as I opened it, I smelled something very weird, like "stinky socks" smell out of it and even I picked two handful of hay then brought them to another floor of the house, I could still smell that smell from those 2 handful of hay, very funny, I have no idea why or what caused that smell, and this situation lasted for maybe a week or two, so the top portion of hay smelled funny in the second box I ordered), then from my observation, the amount/the portion of brownish hay got more and more as I got to the bottom of the entire 9-lb box of hay; I usually picked out those bad/brownish hay that I can see and discard them, also those hay dust-like ones. You can see in my 4th photos, I sorted hay into 4 piles: first - very excellent portion that I put in the round baking bowl, then on the pizza baking plate, 3 different types: brownish part, hay dust as well as tiny and very short part, as well as ok/short/medium length part).... I didn't take photos to document the quality for the first box I bought, but I threw away almost the entire bottom 1/5 portion of hay of the first box I bought that time, which was about 1 pound, I would say (because they were all very brownish and stemy, so that almost made me felt that portion was more like Timothy hay instead of orchard grass hay, and I didn't want to spend time to go through picking out brownish part because there were just too much, not worth my time doing so). Therefore, after experiencing what I saw from the first box, I decided to order again and see if the 2nd box would still be the same (that's why I started to take photos to document the quality and then I can have some confidence to write a review).... right now I'm in about 2/5 portion of hay from the top after I opened the 2nd box, so I can't say if I will have to throw away the last 1/5 portion at the bottom (of the 2nd box) again yet at this time, but right now I have to spend 30-40 minutes just for sorting everyday, so my experience tells me I probably will end up throwing away 1.5-2 lbs of hay, out of 9 lbs, if I want to feed my bunny very good quality of hay (I also keep those ok/medium length part, but because they're quite short, many of them just drop to the bottom of the litter box easily instead of being eaten by my bunny), so I feel like paying $23 or $24 for a total of 7.5-7 lbs of hay, instead of 9-lb box, for this 9-lb Oxbow Orchard grass hay. The 3rd picture shows that when I grabbed a huge handful of hay, it could contain a bunch of very long, greenish/good ones (right) or short/so so part + some brownish ones (left). I have just ordered a 2.5 lbs Oxbow bag yesterday, just to see if Oxbow's smaller package has better quality..... if not, then I'll look for other band (Standlee hay, which my friend recommended) unfortunately.

5.0 out of 5 stars 8 out 10 boxes are perfect!
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2023
I have purchased this hay consecutively for 4 years now and specifically 16 times over the past year. I have 4 guinea pigs who plow through hay. This hay is tasty and wonderful, HOWEVER, statistically... 2 out of every 10 boxes I'll order is crappy. In the "bad boxes" the hay will be super super dusty and short making it extremely messy/dusty to use and undesirable to the pigs. It seems those "bad boxes" are the bottom of their bin/harvest. I wish the company would quality control those "bottom barrel" scraps and not sell them because i end up throwing the box away almost immediately due to unhappy pigs, the dusty mess, and uselessness. I will continue to buy their product but it's a gamble. Unfortunately my last box was a waste of $28 - I attached the photo of the "short hay" and notice the intense dust along the bag! Overall the product is worth the money, but don't be shocked if you get a "bad box"

Sono rimasto molto soddisfatto dell'acquisto del fieno Oxbow per i miei porcellini d'india. La qualità del prodotto è davvero eccellente e i miei animali sembrano apprezzare moltissimo il gusto e la consistenza di questo fieno.

Ho notato che il fieno è molto fresco e profumato, il che indica che la conservazione è stata effettuata in maniera ottimale.

Il prezzo è un po' più alto rispetto ad altri prodotti simili sul mercato, ma ritengo che la qualità elevata giustifichi pienamente il costo.

In sintesi, non potrei essere più contento del fieno Oxbow per i miei porcellini d'india e lo consiglio vivamente a tutti coloro che cercano un prodotto di alta qualità per i propri animali.
