What is Ultra Premium Mountain Grass?

Mountain Grass is grown at a higher elevation and is comprised of a variety of wild grasses that grow in a mountain meadow. The fields are harvested in the spring and early summer.  

The 2022 Ultra Premium Mountain Grass we have in stock is currently a 8/10. This year's Mountain Grass is a good example of what Mountain Grass should be. The only reason it doesn't receive a 10/10 is that the Brome is more prevalent. Click here to read the full Mountain Grass Report.

At Rabbit Hole Hay, we are monitoring the RHDV2 virus closely and at this time it has NOT affected our area of the country (Northern California). While all our hay is now from the 2022 growing season from Northern California, there have been NO reported cases affecting the area of the country where we source our hay. Click here to read more about what we are doing to ensure the safety of your small pet.

Why Hay is Essential to Their Diet

Grass hay is an important staple in the diet of rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas. For rabbits 7 months and older and guinea pigs 6 months and older, grass hay should make up 80% of their diet. For chinchillas older than a year, grass hay should make up 75% of their diet. The constant foraging and grazing encouraged by hay helps to keep them physically active and mentally stimulated. It also helps to wear down their teeth while the long strand fiber helps to keep their digestion regular and functioning properly.

Stop Wasting Time & Money on Bad Hay

Tired of wasting time picking through bad hay just to find the bits your rabbit, guinea pig, or chinchilla will actually eat? We visually inspect and hand-pack every package of hay to ensure that you get fresh, green, fragrant hay of the highest quality. Your hay is always hand-processed, never machine-cut, creating nice long strands and less small pieces. You’ll no longer have to worry about your small pet suffering from irritated eyes or sneezing from excessive dust. We preserve freshness by bagging all of our hay inside the box. This helps keep it from drying out or absorbing unwanted odors.

We are located in Northern California, in the heart of hay country. We source all of our hay from local growers in the surrounding regions of the Northwest United States.
