Ultra Premium Medium Timothy Hay

Most of the time, yes. Ultra Premium Medium Timothy Hay is graded for broader leaves, thinner stems, and shorter seed heads—qualities that usually come from a farmer's second harvest of the season.

Occasionally an especially soft first harvest has those same qualities, so instead of promising a specific cutting, we grade every batch to our medium standard.

That means you get consistent texture bag to bag, whether the hay came from a second cut or an unusually soft first cut.

For adult rabbits 7 months and older and guinea pigs 6 months and older, grass hay should make up at least 80% of the diet. For chinchillas older than 1 year, aim for at least 75% grass hay.

Younger animals, nursing mothers, and pets with health concerns may need different portions. Check with your vet if you're unsure.

Mix the new hay with the old hay over 7–14 days so the change is gradual.

Watch appetite and droppings during the switch. If your pet stops eating or stool looks unusual, slow the transition and contact your vet.

Store hay in a cool, dry place with good airflow—a breathable bag or bin works well.

Avoid sealing hay in plastic long-term; trapped moisture can lead to mold. If hay smells musty, feels damp, or looks unusually dusty or discolored, discard it and open a fresh bag.

Commercial hay from a trusted producer is very low risk for RHDV2, and we monitor official reporting for the regions where we source and pack hay.

We source in Northern California, where there have been no reported RHDV2 cases in our sourcing and warehouse areas to date. Current inventory is from the 2025–2026 growing season in that region. USDA guidance suggests dried virus may remain stable about three months; we follow harvest timing, storage, and handling with that in mind.

For symptoms, vaccines, maps, and what we watch ongoing, see our RHDV2 information hub and the RHDV2 section of our FAQ.

All three are timothy grass hay—the difference is texture. Soft cut is leafier with thinner stems; coarse cut has more stem and fewer tender leaves; medium sits between them.

Ultra Premium Medium Timothy Hay is our middle grade—a good everyday choice for most adult pets. Soft timothy may suit picky eaters or sensitive teeth; coarse timothy may suit pets that need more dental wear.
