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" pieces. So I decided to try the Small Pet Select 2nd cutting of timothy hay, which they like better than the first Oxbow timothy hay we tried. However, they are still picking out a lot of the stalky pieces!
Do a lot of you guys use the third cutting of hay instead and if so, from where? I've heard it's rich and can cause obesity in guinea pigs. I'm trying to reduce wasting hay
