Oxbow Alfalfa hay is a high-fibre legume forage hay that is sometimes called the "Queen of Forages". It is similar to grass hays such as Oxbow Timothy, Orchard Grass and Organic Meadow Hay with the same long-strand fiber found in grass hays, but with more protein, energy and calcium. Because Oxbow takes special care and bale at night, you will find that Oxbows Alfalfa Hay have a soft stem with the leaves attached.

Oxbows Alfalfa Hay is an outstanding feed for young animals. It contains more crude protein, digestible energy, and calcium levels than any other forage. In addition, it has the fibre content needed for normal digestive functioning. Oxbow Alfalfa provides the essential calcium necessary for growing bones. Oxbow Alfalfa is also a source of important minerals, including phosphorus, potassium, magnesium, sulphur, iron, zinc and selenium.

Oxbows Alfalfa Hay should not be fed to all animals. But if used carefully, in certain situations, it can be a valuable tool in nutritional management.

Due to its succulent taste, Oxbows Alfalfa Hay can be used as an appetite stimulant when an animal is ill or for post-surgical patients. Because it is high in fibre, a small pinch can be given as a treat.

Feeding Directions:
Growing Animals-Under 6 months of age:
Unlimited amounts plus free choice grass hay.

Mature Animals: Occasional small amounts.
Nursing Females: Unlimited amounts in addition to free choice grass hay

Oxbow Alfalfa Hay should only be offered carefully to mature rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and prairie dogs due to the higher protein and calcium content.
Many vets believe that animals prone to kidney stones, bladder stones or calcium crystals in their urine should always avoid alfalfa.
