What is Timothy hay?

Timothy hay is a type of dry, nutritious hay that is widely used as an essential component of diet for various herbivorous animals, including rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and hamsters. It is obtained from Timothy grass (Phleum pratense), a variety of grass that is grown specifically for its nutritional value as animal feed.

This hay is appreciated for its nutritional composition. It stands out for its high crude fiber content, especially long fiber, making it an ideal choice to promote healthy digestion in herbivorous animals. Dietary fiber is essential for the proper functioning of the digestive system of these animals.

In addition to fiber, Timothy hay provides protein and various essential nutrients, such as vitamin C for guinea pigs. Fiber helps maintain gut health, promoting intestinal peristalsis and preventing gastric stasis, a potentially serious problem in rabbits and rodents.

Advice from LePetitRongeur on the use of hay

• Make sure your pet always has access to fresh, clean hay. It must be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week .
• Hay should not be the only source of food for your herbivorous furball. He should also have access to fresh vegetables, quality pellets appropriate for his age and size , clean, fresh water, and occasional treats.
