Something that we get asked frequently - why do you have two types of Timothy and what are the differences?
Grass Varieties
Pure Timothy is just that, 100% Timothy grass. Timothy Blend is made up of a composition of predominately Timothy with some Rye Grass (Cotswold Sweet) and Fescue Grass in the mix too
Colour
Pure Timothy is a pale green colour . Timothy Blend is more golden with some green strands throughout.
Texture
Both varieties are long in strand and have a coarse texture and great for dental wear!
Production
Pure Timothy is dried in our specialist drying barn, this is what enables it to keep its colour preserved.
Timothy Blend is made and dried in the field in the traditional way meaning it loses some of its colour to sun bleaching.
Price
Timothy blend is our cheaper offering because it is produced by harnessing the power of nature rather than being barn dried.
