Your cart is empty.Our mission with the Value Choice hay product is to offer small animals everywhere the best possible hay at a fraction of the price. Fresh hay is critical for your small pets health and should make up about 80% of their diet. Among so many other health benefits, hay is an excellent source of fiber which is crucial in maintaining a healthy gut and good general digestive functions. Great hay is also vital for your small pets dental health because it prevents their teeth from becoming overgrown and problematic. For these reasons and so many more it’s absolutely essential that your friend has fresh hay on hand at all times. Every harvest we search up and down the West Coast of the United States inspecting hundreds of fields and talking to dozens of farmers. We know the differences between good and bad hay because year after year we go to each farm to hand select it ourselves. When we finally find the hay we’re looking for, we make sure that as a small family owned company we provide you with the care and personal service you and your small pet deserve. Furthermore, we supply our hay in large recyclable boxes, as opposed to the small plastic bags you’ll find elsewhere. We do this because we believe that providing sustainable, compostable, and eco-friendly packaging is critical. Our hay is not only hand selected but also hand packed, no heavy machinery and no mass production! This is to ensure that your hay is not compressed or pulverized in anyway; maintaining the integrity of the hay is extremely important to us. Small Pet Select was created by small animal people for small animal people. You can rest assured when purchasing that we want the very best for your small pet and have gone the extra mile to ensure we achieve that.

I have bought this brand before, I’m just buying a smaller box as my previous (larger) rabbit passed and I have a smaller rabbit now. I don’t use it nearly as fast.The hay is great. It ALWAYS smells fresh and looks green. I have NEVER had a problem with musty or brown hay! Don’t just take my word for it though, the proof is in the rabbit! All three of my bunnies have loved this brand of hay.Yes, it is a bit pricier than the popular mass produced pet store brands. But, considering the quality and freshness, it’s worth it. Less wasted chaff and odd bits as well.

We are hoomans to a very picky bun, no doubt due to his background prior to being rescued by the local SPCA (a 4H hoarding case where he had no access to space, crammed into a wire cage with other rabbits, and dirty hay). We tried all types of Timothy Hay, even Oxbow, but it wasn't fresh and Bun-Bun wasn't going to be tricked. Nope, none of that.Fast forward to Small Pet Select: we found them online after conducting research and went with the 2nd cutting Timothy Hay. When it arrived, we were pleased to see that it was still green, fresh, and didn't have a lot of dust. Sometimes with the other brands, the leaves are almost powdered. Not in this case, Bun-Bun was busy jumping into the box just to get at the Timothy Hay. Score!We have never had any issues with our orders, love this company that not only partners with local farmers, but also ensures their product is fresh, clean, and picked/stored right to support the ongoing diets of our furry friends.Great value for the money, excellent Timothy Hay that is fresh and crunchy, delivery through Amazon is quick and rated 10 stars by Bun-Bun! Thank you for being there for us!

I have purchased a variety of brands of hay for my guinea pigs. This one is definitely the best value and of exceptional quality. The disadvantage is that the hay is just stuffed into a cardboard box. This makes it a little bit messy to store and utilize. However, I find it is worth the trouble. My guinea pigs love it! There is very little wastage. They eat almost every piece of hay. Other brands that I have purchased seemed to have lots of powder or unedible bits. It also seems extremely fresh. I would definitely recommend this product.

I usually love Small Pet Select Hay. It usually looks and smells fresh. This is the first time I ordered the Value Choice. I read the description and learned that the only difference is the packaging; no pretty pictures. I read the reviews and they were all good, so I purchased. I was disappointed when I opened the box yesterday. It definitely wasn't like what I usually get. My rabbit wouldn't eat it. He stayed under the couch all day. I was worried he had GI Stasis, when I brought him greens and treats he would eat them. He usually loves his hay. I even put him in his hay/litter box and he hopped out and hid under the couch again. Today I tried feeding him by hand and he would literally pick the brown pieces out and toss them aside and only eat the green pieces. That's when I realized just how bad it was. It looks like I raked it up from my lawn after mowing and letting it sit in the sun. I can't believe I fed this to him. Neither can Cinnabun! I guess he was pouting. He's actually giving me the side eye. I tried to pick enough green pieces to hold him over until I can get to the feed store tomorrow. What a pain. It's in the garbage now. Hopefully he will forgive me. I went back and looked at the reviews again and noticed a new from someone else who received a bad batch in January. He called customer service and got a full refund. Unfortunately I didn't open the box until the after the return window. I just ordered it last month, but it was over 30 days. Amazon made an exception and refunded me 50%. Considering that I wasn't that far past the return window and the product was so bad and I spend at least $1000 at Amazon most months, I thought they should just go ahead and refund me the full $20, but they wouldn't budge. I feel like Small Pet Select would have gladly given me a full refund to keep me as a customer if I had ordered it directly from them. Amazon is convenient, but I will order directly from Small Pet Select from now on. Hopefully this is just a one off situation that doesn't happen again.

I have used this product in the passed and have always loved the high standard and high grade of hay. My Guinea pigs loved it that much they barely left any. Now for the last 2 boxes I've bought they have been full of durt which is dangerous as Guinea pigs to inhale. I apologise for leaving this review but I cannot buy your hay in this condition.
