This might be a strange question, but is 3rd cut Timothy Hay supposed to have these sharp brambles? I usually buy from RabbitHole Hay but they were out of stock on a 3rd cut I wanted to try, so I went to Small Pet Select (Which seems like a big mistake). I ended up cutting my hand so bad it...
my guinea pigs always have hay but recently we’ve been getting rice weevils all around the house but mostly in my room where my pigs are, rice weevils go after rice wheat and grains, is there any alternatives for hay for them just for a couple weeks until we’re sure the bugs are gone?
Just had a new 10kg of HayBox Club meadow hay delivered. I topped up the girls’ hay tray and this happened:
It’s not just a hay tray, it’s a hay tray with three pigs hiding in it! I’ve never ‘seen’ them all in it together like this!
Hello all, one of my guinea pigs who is 2 had a sunken eye which didn’t quite look right - took him to the vets turns out a sharp piece of hay has damaged his eye ☹️ he recommended we use paper bedding like what they sell for hamsters. However in the stores around by me I have only ever seen...
Today morning I saw my guinea pig had a small piece of hay in his eye and as I tried to get it out but it just seemed to have gone on further into it. When I look at it now there isn't any sign of it so I'm not really sure whether it fell off or not. He's not squinting or anything right now and...
I have two seven week old boars and it doesn't look like they're eating hay.ive only ever seen them eat pellets and starting to get concerned.
My other 4 piggies love the excel Burgess feeding hay but the two babies don't by the looks of it.
Can anyone recommend any other brands/types of hay...
I’ve just been to the vets with BB for a hay ‘poke’ - it was actually a bit of super soft hay lying under her bottom eyelid, so not really a ‘poke’ at all! which is the third time I’ve been for this sort of thing with my trio. The vet said I may want to re-think their bedding as I’ve had a lot...
Hi, I’m torn between using straw or wood shavings from Pets at Home? I was just wondering what all of you use in your bed and if anyone knows what type of wood shavings Pets at Home sell as we can only really use Aspen. :)
Hi, I was just wondering if you can feed guinea pigs fresh grass as I've had an idea that i can buy a mini hay rack (like a hamster sized one) to put grass in but also have a big one for the hay during the winter so when its summer they can go on the grass and eat more of it? I don't want to...
Hi all!
I'm looking to change my hay brand for the girls. My local choices are limited so I'm looking into purchasing online, but that poses the risk of getting shoddy produce.
Can anyone recommend a good brand that's reliable in it's quality? I'm from Ireland so American sites are out...
I've had my 2 Mos old Guinea pig for almost 2 Mos now and I'm still struggling with feeding her Hay.
She eats pellets and Vegetables but doesn't seem to like Hay.
I've tried several, Meadow, Alfalfa and Stargrass and just a couple of days ago, Timothy Hay.
She seems to like Alfalfa but can't...
Hello! One of my piggies, Ruby, unfortunately got a tiny little piece of hay (or maybe it was hay dust) in her eye two days ago. I tried taking it off but I couldn't and it managed to get under her lower eyelid. So I was freaking out because I'm aware that this can lead to a major eye injury...
Hi guys! I wanted to ask if how long is the shelf life of an Oxbow Timothy hay, hay blends or orchard hay or any hay in general.
Since we have no fresh hay available here in the Philippines, I want to ask a relative to buy some for me from the US and have it shipped to me via sea cargo because...
Hello! I've been feeding my 3 girls Oxbow Timothy Hay for all their lives. They absolutely love it I've noticed that it does contain lots of dust, especially when I get towards the bottom, I never finish the bag because of it. They sneeze every now and then due to the hay dust, so I feel...
Hi,
I've had my Guinea pig for almost a month now. She's a month and a couple of weeks old Sheltie/Silkie sow.
Not sure why she's not too keen on eating hay. This is they hay I'm giving her.
It's Stargrass Hay with Alfalfa Hay. But she doesn't seem to like it that much. I'm not even sure if...
I've fed my 3 guinea pigs a variety of hay, from different brands.
We started with the Oxbow Blends of orchard and timothy hay. They picked out the timothy hay because they didn't enjoy it as much. Then, we fed them the Oxbow 9-lb orchard hay, but they still picked out some of the "stalkier"...
Hi,
I'm a new caview daddy to a month old Silkie sow from the Philippines.
I've had her for almost 2 weeks now.
When I initially got her, I tried feeding her Meadow grass hay which she totally ignored, that's understandable as she didn't touch her veggies too. I assumed that she's still in the...
Hi all,
With it being winter, we're using a lot more hay than usual for our guinea pigs to use as bedding and also to eat as they quite enjoy it. The only problem is that the best hay we can find has tonnes of Hay Rattle/Yellow Rattle seeds in it (literally in every handful of hay) and we're...
Hiya all!
I live in Southampton central and my piggies love Oxbow Timothy hay and meadow hay. These 1kg bags are quite pricey (£13 roughly on amazon).
Just wanted to know if you guys had any ideas of good Hay for someone to get for fussy piggies with expensive taste lol
