Kms Hayloft Vs Oxbow Essentials

[Cookies&Glitter]

This may be a long shot because they are US pellets but I'm wondering if anyone has tried both oxbow and kms pellets. I have used oxbow for years but have continued to read good things about kms Timothy pellets and the are so much less expensive so I was wondering if anyone had experience with KMS pellets?

I'm wondering the same thing right now.

I'm in the states, and looking into lower calcium content pellets. KMS looks to be a solid option. I already order all my Timothy hay from KMS and it's totally superior to Oxbow hay.

Maybe I'll take the dive and post my findings here for you!

Which cut of hay so you use that is better than oxbow? I was going to order a small bag to see how my pigs liked it but the pellets were $12 and the shipping was $19.99

We keep Timothy hay 2nd cut as their unlimited source, because it has the highest concentration of nutrients in it.

We have their Timothy hay 3rd cut as a treat to mix in with the 2nd cut once in awhile. it's less nutritious, but sweeter and sooo soft! It smells incredible.

I didn't realize that my pigs didn't eat hay quite that often until I switched from Oxbow to KMS hayloft. The shipping is totally worth it considering how more enriching it is for my girls. I can't imagine ever going back to Oxbow.
