Also, if you cut it smaller and soak it in a bowl of water to soften it they take to it better. I cut it up into 1/2" lengths, soak it to soften it then mix it up into the food so they can't pick it out
It also says synthetic hay?Hm. I've never heard of 'powdered hay.' I wonder what happens when you soak it in water. At any rate, babies won't eat it in that condition. If you cut it up into smaller bites and soak it he might take more readily to it (if you mix it up with his food).
