Hello. I am in the United States. I am having problems finding good bulk hay. I used to go through small pet select. I started with their 2nd cut Timothy hay. It used to be beautiful. Then I got 2 bad brown dust batches in a row. It's not cheap either. I switched to their orchard hay which again was beautiful. Then same problem as the Timothy hay. Brown dusty and the pigs won't eat it. I placed an order with kms, but they are having issues getting their hay. I have been waiting for weeks. I have 14 guinea pigs so buying the small oxbow bags is a fortune! I tried Tractor supply hay and it's dusty and stalky and the piggies don't like it. I tried to order oxbow 50 pound orchard hay online, but of course, it's out of stock. I am beyond frustrated. It doesn't seem like it should be so difficult to find good quality hay. I keep wasting money and it's driving me crazy. Sorry for the rant. If anyone has any suggestions I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Maybe another of the US members can help.
