  Ya’ know those little compressed hay balls/disks?
  
  Are those as good as loose hay?
  
  Both Walter and Boo don’t eat as much hay as is I’d like, though they do eat some.
  
  They seem to like the Rosewood Naturals compressed Meadow hay.

  They’re not quite as good, they don’t get as much tooth wear but the fibre content should be the same.

  If you’re referring to the Oxbow compressed hay stacks, those are a fine substitute for the loose hay.

  The product you mentioned looks very similar to the oxbow stacks, so they should be the same as regular hay (since you can break them up to be individual strands, right?).

  These don’t break up like that. They are pretty hard. I’ll pick up some of the Oxbow and gives these others as a treat for the piggies. Thanks.
