Oxbow Animal Health Oat Hay for Small Animals (15 oz)

High-Fiber Alternative to Grass Hays

Product Description

Oxbow Oat Hay is harvested at the early bloom stage before oat kernels mature, yielding savory, fiber-rich husks. This companion forage provides similar nutritional analysis to western timothy hay, with enhanced texture and aroma from the immature seed heads. Ideal for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, prairie dogs, and other small herbivores, it supports digestive health and dental wear while adding variety to daily diets.

Benefits

Savory Crunch & Aroma:Early-harvest oat husks deliver a unique texture and enticing oatmeal scent that stimulates appetite and enriches mealtime.

High Fiber Support:With up to 32% crude fiber, Oat Hay supports gut motility, nutrient absorption, and helps prevent gastrointestinal stasis.

Dental Health Maintenance: The fibrous texture encourages natural chewing behaviors, helping prevent continuous tooth wear and overgrowth.

Dietary Variety:Companion forage adds taste and texture diversity when offered alongside timothy, orchard grass, or brome hays.

Quality Farm Sourcing:Hand-selected from Oxbow’s family of farms and gently processed to remove excess dust and debris for premium small-animal forage.
