"My bunny needed to switch to alfalfa for weight maintenance, and this is a winner. It's rich green, fragrant, and has good long pieces to chew. This hay helped get my bunny eating again, and keep weight on. Definitely recommend."

— Bunchick

"Upon opening, was so disappointed to see a bag of dried out twigs & small green dried out bits of hay. This was not a 'Ultra Premium' product! Rabbit would not eat it. So glad I only bought the 4 oz bag and not stuck with big bag of this hay!"

Bottom Line

For those looking for high-quality hay, this product may or may not meet your expectations. It might be worthwhile to try a small batch first.
