Finding the Right Cut Which Cutting Is Best For Your Loved One?
Finding the right cutting is crucial for keeping your little ones healthy. Each cutting has different nutrients, vitamins, and density. Read below for information on the different types of hay and cuttings we offer.
First Cutting Timothy Bunnies, Chinchillas, Guinea Pigs & Gerbils
Called first cutting because it is the first harvest of the year this hay will have higher fiber content and slightly larger stems and timothy heads. This promotes good wear of teeth, and the higher fiber content is great for soothing tummies. It is best for bunnies, chinchillas and gerbils that don’t need as much protein and fat in their diet while still preserving the delicious nutrient rich timothy head.
REVIEW ★★★★★
Nothing makes a bunny parent happier than seeing their fur baby totally devouring hay.
DiamondRock is a new try for us and I’m so impressed with the quality of both their 1st and 2nd cut Timothy hay. I ordered a 2 pound bag of each to try and was thrilled to see my rabbit begin eating both immediately.
1st cut seems to be his favorite with wider , thicker stems. 2nd cut is a slightly more narrow, finer cut. The color of both is a beautiful dark green, no brown, no dust, no chopped up pieces (unusual to find in small quantity bags). The hay has a fresh, just cut fragrance and I love that Diamond Rock follows RHDV2 quarantine protocol to protect our rabbits. I will be ordering the 5 pound boxes for future orders.
If you have been disappointed, as I have with hay quality from others, don’t hesitate. This hay is the best I’ve seen in a long time.
P.S. I am sharing a video of our bunny devouring the hay!

Alfalfa Hay Wonderful Addition, for Nursing or Pregnant Mothers, & Chickens
Alfalfa is a wonderful addition to the diet of your growing animals and pregnant or nursing mothers. It is rich in protein, calcium, and fat and other nutrients. Chickens also love alfalfa which can help regrow feathers after molting and alfalfa also contains carotenoids which leads to a darker yellow-orange yolk.
