Variety Hay Bundle
The Variety Hay Bundle is designed to bring natural variety, enrichment, and nutritional diversity to your animals’ feeding routine through a carefully selected mix of meadow, timothy, oat, and sweet green hays.
Containing a wide range of textures, scents, stem thicknesses, and grass types, this bundle helps encourage natural grazing behaviour, supports healthy digestion and dental wear, and keeps feeding time mentally stimulating — especially for indoor animals or fussy hay eaters who benefit from rotation and novelty.
Perfect for multi-pet households, enrichment-focused owners, or animals that become selective when offered the same hay continuously.

🌿 1x 5-A-Day Timothy Rich Hay – 1kg

Naturally aromatic oat hay with seed heads for enrichment, texture variety, and sensory stimulation.
