At GuineaDad, our priority is the health and well-being of guinea pigs everywhere. Our Nourish Series provides the freshest, high-quality, and fiber-rich Orchard hay for guinea pigs to help keep them feeling their best.

What's Included:
5 Packages of Micro-filtered Orchard Hay

Dimensions:

11.5in x 10.5in x 4in

Net Weight: 
12.5 lb (2.5 lb x 5)

GuineaDad's goal is to make your life as a guinea pig parent easier, while making sure your piggies get all the nutrients they need to thrive.

GuineaDad's Nourish Series provides the freshest, healthiest, and most delicious Timothy hay and Orchard hay available! 

Healthy & Safe:
Unfiltered Orchard hay can bring rocks, dust, and other debris that can be harmful for guinea pigs to consume. Our GuineaDad Team runs every bit of our hay through a precisely calibrated dust filter, picking out any rocks, feathers, or other detritus it finds.

Our team then verifies this by sorting through every last bit by hand.

The GuineaDad Team puts a lot of time, effort, and love into ensuring that our cavies get the purest and highest-quality hay possible! 

GuineaDad's Hay Bar (5 pack) offers 12.5 lbs of fresh hay that's easy for guinea pigs to consume straight from the conveniently placed perforations in the packaging.

Convenient Packaging:
GuineaDad Nourish Series has created a patented and innovative way for your guinea pigs to get the most use of GuineaDad Orchard Hay Bars.

All you do is tie the strings of the Hay Bar to the side of your guinea pigs' enclosure or feeding station, and that's it! No refilling, no mess, no hassle! The perforated holes on the packaging make it easy for your guinea pig to eat from, while keeping the hay securely in place. The design and packaging materials we use will help to keep your piggies' home cleaner, dust-free, and comfortable.

Did we mention that guinea pigs can chew on the packaging? Guinea pigs being able to chew and play as they eat provides mental stimulation, stress relief, dental maintenance, and enjoyment!

All of our packaging uses food safe ink and non-toxic virgin paper, making it safe for consumption and safe for the environment.

When you're done with a package, just fold it up and throw it in the recycling. It's that simple.

Timothy hay or Orchard hay | Which one should I choose?

Timothy hay and Orchard hay are the two best choices of hay for a guinea pig's diet.

Guinea pigs require an unlimited amount of hay as the main staple of their diet, providing them with fiber, protein, and a proper calcium to phosphorus ratio. Hay also plays a crucial role in maintaining good dental health.

Timothy Hay is widely available and provides the optimal balance of nutrition for guinea pigs' diets. The high fiber content found in Timothy hay helps maintain normal digestive health. 

Orchard hay is an excellent alternative for piggy parents with grass allergies that might be irritated by Timothy hay.

Orchard hay tends to be softer, sweeter, and has an aromatic fragrance which will entice even the pickiest of eaters.

The nutritional value of Orchard hay doesn't fall much behind that of Timothy hay, boasting high fiber content, a good Ca:Ph ratio, and only slightly less protein.

Timothy hay or Orchard hay?

Timothy Hay for Guinea Pigs

Timothy hay is the most popular choice among guinea parents! It not only smells and tastes yummy, but it has the perfect balance of fiber, fat, and protein.

Orchard hay for guinea pigs

Orchard hay is a great substitute for piggy parents suffering from allergies. It consists of soft, but broader and sweeter leaves, and is slightly higher in calories and protein than Timothy hay.

I love the hay, my guinea pigs destroys it every time

Store owner replied: Thanks so much, Junior! We’re so happy your guinea pigs love the Orchard Hay Bar. It looks like they really know how to enjoy it! 😂💚🐹

Customer video review of GuineaDad Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

I love the hay as much as my guineas do! No more stuffing hay from a big bag into a messy rack multiple times a day! This thing lasts around two weeks! Just tie it on, open the perforated sections, and the guineas know what to do! I highly recommend it- and because the hay is so tightly packed and the openings are small, you can’t event smell the hay when you’re in the room!

GuineaDad Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thanks so much, Leslie! We’re so glad the Orchard Hay Bar makes feeding easier and cleaner for you, while keeping your guineas happy too. We really appreciate the wonderful video and recommendation! 💚🐹

Customer photo review of Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

I like the convenience. I am still not sure if financially it’s better than buying 80lbs of oxbow hay in the bag. The pigs still waste their hay. I guess it’s because they pick through what they like.

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thank you for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you appreciate the convenience of the Orchard Hay Bar. Guinea pigs can be such funny little connoisseurs when it comes to their hay, always picking out the best bits! We hope the ease and freshness of the hay bars make it a win for both you and your piggies. Let us know if they start wasting less—we’d love to hear how it goes! ❤️🐹

Customer photo review of Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Really love the hay. It looks and smells fresh. Not dusty at all. Perfect for my allergies I love the innovative packaging unfortunately one of my little boys is well….lazy…very lazy. The little guy likes to lie down while he eats level lazy. He found the level of effort just too much. To be fair he also didn’t much care for a hay bag either preferring to eat the pieces that fell out So I’ve just been opening the bags from one end and filling a dish with hay. Lazy boy gets to sit in the dish and enjoy the high quality guineadad hay that way I wish there was an option for a loser packed box or something for those piggies who don’t like the feeder. The hay is good quality so much better than anything from the pet store

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thank you for your thoughtful and fun review! 😊 We’re so glad to hear you love the quality of our Orchard Hay and that it’s helping with your allergies. 🌿 It sounds like your little lazy boy has truly mastered the art of relaxation while eating—what a character! 🐹 We appreciate your creative solution with the dish, and we’ll definitely take your suggestion of a looser-packed option into consideration for those piggies who prefer a more laid-back dining experience. Thanks again for your kind words and feedback!

Customer photo review of Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

My daughter has 3 pigs and I am caring for them since she has gone to college. I read the comments regarding allergies and using the orchard hay boxes. I am highly allergic to the Timothy hay and was diagnosed for with asthma for the first time since it’s been in our house 😳. The hay pods are great! The pigs love to chew them and have had no trouble transitioning to orchard hay. Less dust helps when I clean their cage. Far less reaction to the orchard hay. So. Much. Better!! Will continue to buy the orchard hay pods!!

Customer photo review of Orchard Hay Bar (5 Pack)

We switched to Orchard Hay to relieve my husband's allergies (thankfully, the allergist said he wasn't allergic to the actual piggies!), so I thought I'd try the hay bar. I love seeing the piggies climb up to eat off the top and poke their heads in the bottom, surrounded by hay-filled bliss.

Customer photo review of GuineaDad Hay Bar (5 Pack) - Orchard - Micro-Filtered Guinea Pig Hay

This is “Baby Face”. He loves the hay! I was concerned he wouldn’t make it because he refused to eat including vitamin C. Vet couldn’t find anything wrong. Guinea dad personnel encouraged me to give the little fella a chance and keep trying which I did and am so glad. He has so much personality and popcorns ! I love him so much and am thankful y’all took the time to listen and encourage me! Thanks! I also use the Guinea dad pads which he loves.

GuineaDad Hay Bar (5 Pack) - Orchard - Micro-Filtered Guinea Pig Hay

I think it's a little too big. The orchard hay is great, but my piggy doesn't (and shouldn't) eat as much of it as the timothy hay. I can switch between the two, but then I have to figure out where to store the open one that is not in use. If it came in a smaller size, like 1/2-3/4 as big as the Timothy hay, that'd be ideal.

GuineaDad Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thank you for your review! We're delighted to hear that your piggies are enjoying the Orchard Hay Bar. It sounds like they're having a great time munching and exploring inside. We love that they've made it part of their fun and yummy snack time! 🌾😊

I cannot imagine a better run company than Guinea Dad!! From day one for us, we have found the best hay !! It has very little dust and we have tried both the timothy and the orchard. The treats are the best and the PADS are super wonderful!!! They keep the cage clean and the surface is soft for my girl's feet! I just ordered one of their cages and can't wait to get it! So....so far the hay, the treats, the toys, the Pads are the best! And the customer service is personalized and timely! So, gosh, that's all I can say about Guinea Dads..... Just try it!

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thank you so much for your enthusiastic review, Penny! We're thrilled to hear that you've had such a positive experience with our products and service from day one. Your satisfaction means the world to us, and we can't wait for you to receive your new cage. We're grateful for your support and excited to continue providing your guinea pig with the comfort and care they deserve. Thanks for being a wonderful part of the GuineaDad family! 🌟🐹💕

We have two elderly girls who are still doing really well and love to eat a hole for themselves, then settle down into the bag to just…eat. If we ever look into their habitat and can’t see them right away, they are probably nested into the hay. We get the orchard blend so allergies aren’t as bad from the Timothy hay, and while I wish I could use the automated delivery, (I’m just bad at estimating and end up with a backlog…always) the delivery is fast enough that when we put the last package in the cage, we get a fresh delivery before they are even halfway done. Thanks for improving the packaging, too. The girls seem to get more out of the paper packaging than the previous cardboard!

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Store owner replied: Thank you, Ella! 🥰 It’s wonderful to hear how much your sweet girls are enjoying their hay bar nest – sounds like they’ve made it their little hideaway! 🐹💚 So glad the orchard blend helps with allergies, and we’re thrilled that the new packaging adds some extra fun! If you ever need help with the delivery timing, we’re here for you! 😊

We have 2 rescue girls piggies they weren't eating enough of the timothy hay but when we changed to the orchard hay bar immediately they loved it and starting eating and growing well they love to play in ti, they enjoy eating away tunnels in it and chewing on it. We couldn't be happier no more mess to change the hay no more loose hay all over the floor no more allergies almost no waste and no dusty piggies. I wish I knew about this 9 years ago when we had our 2 boy piggies.

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

Love love love these hay boxes. So much less mess in the cage and the hay stays nice and clean for the piggies. Also, I love the orchard hay option as I am allergic to Timothy hay.

Orchard Hay Bar for Guinea Pigs (5 Pack)

The reason I gave it 4 stars is I can't figure out how to hand the bag correctly. I had to use the clips from the boxes to hold it on my fence as you can see in the video. There should be a way to have 4 strings to be able to attach to the sides. I got these bags since it comes with 5 bags and I am limited on funds right now. I like the boxes better since they are easier to use and attach.
