Organic Oat Hay
Our high altitude USDA Certified Organic hay is grown high in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest, where the cooler nights make it grow more slowly, allowing more nutrients to develop. This slower growth also makes the hay softer and easier to chew and digest. It is an amazing source of nutrition for your small pet, including rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and other little companions.
Organic oat hay is crunchy, flavorful, and packed with natural seed heads.
Nutritional Role: High fiber hay that supports daily digestive function and natural energy.
Health Benefits: Encourages chewing, foraging, and natural dental wear.
Feeding Guidance: Offer daily as part of a varied hay diet. Mix with timothy or orchard for balance.

Texture
- High-Altitude Hay: Soft and leafy - gentle on teeth, easy to chew.
- Regular Hay: Coarse and stemmy - tougher to chew, may cause dental strain.
Digestibility
- High-Altitude Hay: Easier to digest = better nutrient absorption.
- Regular Hay: Harder to digest = more waste, fewer nutrients absorbed.
