Mini bales of Vitakraft Spring Timothy Hay are compressed into individual portions and tightly banded to protect from UV light, keeping hay greener and more flavorful. Simply snip the band and hay expands into convenient, easy-to-feed servings which prevents mess and product waste. Timothy hay is naturally lower in protein and calcium and a little bit higher in fiber then alfalfa hay, it provides an excellent food basis for the mature pet. A Timothy diet is also beneficial to the overweight ad or sedentary animal who doesn’t need the richness and nutrient density of an alfalfa based diet, and is of special benefit to the adult pet rabbit, whose protein and calcium and requirements are much lower than their younger siblings.
