What is Coarse Timothy Hay? The seeds for timothy hay are planted in the springtime. The hay is then harvested (or cut) for the first time around May or June which is why it’s called Coarse Timothy Hay. It’s the first cut of the field for the year. Coarse Timothy Hay provides a strong balance of roughage and nutrition for rabbits guinea pigs and chinchillas. Its larger seed heads leaves and stems make it coarser providing long strands that promote natural chewing behavior. It’s an important staple of your rabbit’s diet because it helps wear down their teeth. The long strand fibers also help to keep your rabbit’s digestion regular and functioning properly. Why Hay is Essential to Their Diet For rabbits 7 months and older grass hay is an important staple of their diet. While pellets and some vegetables may be safe for young bunnies and as occasional treats for mature rabbits grass hay should make up 80% of their diet. This most closely resembles the natural feeding habits of rabbits in the wild and promotes proper digestion and dental health. The constant foraging and grazing encouraged by hay helps to keep rabbits physically active and mentally stimulated. Timothy Hay is high in fiber and low in both protein and calcium content which is ideal for keeping the digestive tracts of rabbits and other small animals functioning properly. Timothy Hay can be fed free-choice to your rabbits guinea pigs chinchillas and other small animals and should be a mainstay of any small herbivore s diet.
