        I’ve tried buying hay from smaller businesses because then I know it’s fresher and better for her and she loves it. I’ve ordered from two different companies one had issues with there being dead bugs in it and the other I had issues with there being larger rocks and tiny rocks that she could have choked on. Has anyone else had issues like this when buying hay from smaller businesses? And do you have any small businesses that you order hay from that you would recommend?

          I buy from Small Pet Select and have never had issues with it.

          The cheapest you can go is probably a local farm and you can actually see the bales prior to buying. If you have any local rabbit rescues near you, they often sell hay as well and your purchase would be helping their rescue.

            Hmmm, I usually buy bales from a local feed shop and have never had that kind of issue!

            If there are feed shops in your area, I’d recommend checking their hay out to see how the quality is because there can be regional variation in suppliers.

              I buy the 9 pound box of Oxbows Timothy hay from amazon or I buy hay from a rabbit rescue center.

                Standlee is great hay.  You can order it directly if you can’t find locally.
