How fast do your piggies go through hay?

I am looking to order a shipment of hay from Kleenmama. I have two pigs and am thinking about getting a 9 lb box. With two pigs, how long do you think that much will last me? Im still debating between a 9lb and a 25lb box. Let me know what you think!

Re: How fast do your piggies go through hay?

9 lbs for two pigs will last you a little less than two months. I am not sure about 25 lbs. I have three pigs and have not ordered large amounts like that because I would rather order more often and it be fresh. I would go with the 9lbs. If you decide to order the 25lb I would get it mixed--half timothy, half bluegrass, they would probably eat more of it and enjoy the different grasses. I order from Oxbow and mix the timothy and orchard grass together and mine love it mixed.
