Silly question about meadow hay

[Geurge]

I picked this up today from The Range/Wilko, I've been using meadow hay for a while now and saw this one for a bit cheaper, but it seems to look like it's only for rabbits.

This feels like a really silly thing to ask, but is it fine for guinea pigs as well? Surely it's all the same?

Yep. That will be absolutely fine for them.

No question is silly if you need to ask you need to ask. Hay is hay. The fact that it has a bunny on the front is immaterial. Your piggies won't know that a bunny was the picture on the pack. They'll still eat it.

Yes, any grass hay is perfectly fine for them to eat

I saw someone say in another thread (I'm not sure who, sorry) that they just market it as rabbit hay for tax/VAT reasons, but the hay itself isn't actually any different from hay that is marketed as suitable for guinea pigs and rabbits. Causes a bit of unnecessary worry though, I think they should make it clearer that it's also suitable for guinea pigs (plus, then they could add an image of a cute little piggy on the front too )

It’s absolutely fine.
No question is a silly question here.
I asked that same question a few years ago when I was still new
