Hi guys,
I'm sharing this because I know it is asked a lot here and is really important in making sure our piggies stay healthy.
Below is a breakdown on what to look for when determining if you have good quality Timothy Hay or not...
Good quality: Bad quality:
Green in color Brown or yellow in color
Smells sweet & fragrant Little or no smell
No sign of dust or mold Dusty and/or mold spots (black or white specks)
Pliable fibrous stalks Stalks break or crumble to the touch
Contains only hay Contains foreign matter such as stones, dirt, earth and other plants
