Because hay makes up so much of what your rabbit eats, its quality matters. It is also worth knowing the difference between bedding hay and feeding hay. Bedding hay is fine for sleeping on, but it lacks the nutritional value of a proper feeding hay like this one from Burgess Excel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere This Timothy Hay Comes From\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is imported Timothy Hay grown on a farm in Yorkshire, England.
