Hay from the hay experts or hay for pets??

:wave: I have decided to change my rabbits hay, I have been having a look online and can't decide between the welsh meadow hay from the hay experts or the Ings hay from hay for pets, what would you recommend? And can I change their hay straight away or do I need to gradually introduce it? I have only just found the website 'the hay experts' and it looks good, I am ordering some presents for Beano's birthday from there. How big is the bags of hay their as my two go through a lot and the Ings hay from hay for pets says how big the bags are. Thankyou :)
 
I don't know about the actual hay but the hay experts customer service is second to none and all their products are high quality. I would choose them every time :)
 
I've never used the hay experts but I got the Ings hay for pets, and they are brilliant! The hay smells lovely (and Oscar loves it) and the man who runs it is fantastic.
 
I have never used the other place you mentioned, but the hay experts is brilliant, I always order my treats from there. However, I find it too expensive to make regular orders, and get farm hay instead at £3 for a bale. However, I used to live in east yorkshire and never found a decent supplier there! I used to use Dust free hay.
 
Another Hay Experts fan here :wave:

Although I've never used Hay for Pets, so I can't give a comparison.

The Hay Experts says what sizes the bags of hay are too.
 
I use both now. I am now buying my main hay plus straw from Hay for Pets (the Ings one) and I order other things from The Hay Experts, eg. Oat, Wheat and Barley hay and treats etc. Both have excellent customer service :D
 
Thankyou everyone :) I have ordered some treats from the hay experts, I think I will use both and do what Littlemeg37 does, order treats, toys and special hay from the hay expets and order their main hay, the Ings hay, from hay for pets? :) Just wanted to see what your opinions are before I buy :)
 
why dont you get a sample pack from hay for pets? its £3 and includes a sample of each of their 3 hays.
 
Sample packs are good. My Spenser wouldn't have anything to do with Welsh meadow hay from either Hay Experts or Animal Magic - but he is VERY fussy. Hope Gordon and Beano approve of your selection. With a pair chances are that at least one will like and the other will copy so as not to miss out.
 
Thankyou, Beano isn't fussy with hay and I don't think Gordon is either. Beano has had at least 3 different types of hay and has eaten all, Gordon has had at least 2 as far as I know (the type the rescue fed and the type I feed at the moment) so I think they should be ok with what ever I choose. I will order some sample packs from hay for pets :)
 
I can't order anything from hay for pets because it needs paypal and my parents paypal won't work, we've tried creating new acounts but it keeps saying the email/passwords are not valid and won't work :( Is there any other way I could pay?

I've never heard of hay for pets before. I'll keep them bookmarked for just in cases. I use dustfreehay.co.uk for meadow hay in bulk and treat hay from the Hay Experts.
