Oat Hay

Apparently Oxbow have stopped providing Oat Hay in anything bigger than their smallest size bag. If anyone has a lot of piggies that like Oat Hay as their treat, now might be the time to stock up on the larger boxes while they are still available from suppliers

Arrg, that is awful. I have not seen any suppliers nearby that carry the large box. My poor piggies are stuck with the small bags now.

I have went that route in the past but the local hay is always less green and the quality overall is much less than I get from oxbow. But thank you for the suggestion.

That's definitely one benefit to living 30 minutes from Walking Horse Country. You can find quality oat hay year-round!

Re: Oat Hay

Ah, that's why it kept saying out of stock on their site. There are some other companies that carry decent oat hay online.
