Hi all! I'm a new guinea pig slave, with two young males(Scott and Good Boy) and I had some concerns about my hay. Sorry if this is repeated(I'm sure it is) but its too difficult to use the search function with my phone.
I ordered 45lbs of 3rd cut from KMS and wanted to know if it's normal to see a large amount of brown hay. I know there should be "some" but I feel like there is one brown leaf for every 3 green, if that makes sense. Also it was as dry as a store bought bag of Kaytee Orchard Grass, and literally looks/feels like the orchard grass except the orchard has no brown blades.
Is this normal? I expected something fresher I guess after readig posts here.
Also how do I store the hay? Am I suppose to mix it or anything? Right now its in the box it came in, minus the bag I emptied it from.
