Lugs was always a really good hay eater but she has become super fussy over the last few months :roll:
she gets health checks regularly and have been told her teeth are okay so it doesn't appear to be for health reasons so maybe she really is just bored but i feel like i have tried so many choices I'm running out of places to try and i would be grateful for any tips :wave:
She refuses to eat any type of Vegetable, Herb or fruit unless its dried, so I get her Forage from Galen's Garden which is very hit and miss with her :roll: and The Hay Experts, she will eat some Oxbow Orchard Grass but isn't super keen and likes Burns Oat Hay, LOVES The Hay Experts Plantain ( which is what she seems to only want to eat at the moment, but isn't that more of a treat?)
She used to like Ings Hay but the quality has been so poor lately, i bought a bag of Ings and Timothy and Rye but she wont touch the Timothy and will pick out very particular strands of the Ings lol
I've tried Burns Meadow Hay also which is used in her litter tray so you can guess how that trial went :lol:, I'm thinking of trying DFH but I've read pretty mixed reviews
She's not keen on Dee Millen either, I did try Timothyhay.co.uk on the 2013 hay, but I don't think she was keen as it was quite stalky so I'm waiting for them to sell the 2015 which will be in a couple of months.
I even got desperate and tried the Herby Harvest from P@H but she left that too which I kinda expected lol, I only give her an egg cup of science selective mature pellets per day which she eats fine, oh and she has 1 Fenugreek Crunchie a day also.
she's 7 years old so I don't know if I am wrong in expecting her to gobble as much hay or if they naturally just eat a bit less? or maybe she is just sick of hay, she also has a little Redigrass a couple times per week, sorry this has been a long post I'm just wondering if anyone else has had this problem
