    Reasonable

    I buy this for my junior rabbit as they need more feeding. It's of varying quality but on the whole its the best I have found at a reasonable price. I won't be feeding it much longer and will buy Timothy hay.

    As my bunny was on a bit of a diet I was informed to give my bunny more hay & alfalfa however too much alfalfa can give your bunny 'sludge' urine that is like chalk and can have blood spots in as alfalfa is higher in calcium than other hay. I stick to Timothy Hay now which suits her better. She loves alfalfa and I'm sure that for the majority of small pets alfalfa suits them just fine, I'm not posting this to slate alfalfa just passing on info I didnt have x

    The last three bags I bought have been nothing but dust..expensive dust too! I used to buy this hay and it used to be good quality,but I won't be buying it again.

    I buy this for my very fussy rabbit who won't eat any hay but this one. Funnily enough, unlike some of the other reviews, he loves the green 'dust' more than the hay stalks themselves so we are quite happy.

    I bought this as one of my rabbits (mini lop) has poop problems - sensitive tummy. Vet recommended alfalfa. They absolutely love it, as soon as they smell it - its gone. However my last few bags were mainly alfalfa dust which is very disappointing, especially as its not cheap but I still purchased again in the hope that those last four bags were just a one off because I never had problems before and Ill hopefully have less dust in the next ones - please!!

    My rabbit absolutely loves this, it's not compressed which means it just feels more fresh and the strands of hay are a bit longer so he can burrow through it as well as eat it. Highly recommended- especially with the added alfalfa which is really good for bunnies =)
