Is it safe to dry grass from my backyard to make hay for my pet?

Hello. In general, once the spray has dried, it should be safe to let your pet back into the garden. I would, however, try to limit any ingestion of the treated grasses. Casual contact with the dried product should be fine, but ingestion should be discouraged. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Hello. Small amounts of fresh grass are acceptable as a treat. Most of the greens fed should be your timothy or oat hays as these are actually more nutritious than grass ( which is mostly water & sugars ). Never feed grass clippings from the mower, & the stemmier the grass is the better. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.

Yes, many parrots like to eat grass, actually every part of grass from the root to the seed. It is a perfect source of fiber and keeps them busy as well . So, he can play in the yard and eat grass. Check the weeds and remove any poisonous weeds by pulling them out and removing them.

Any typical grass found in yard landscaping is fine for dogs, like Kentucky Bluegrass. More important would be to consider what is best suited to your environment in terms of needing little watering. It's best to chose landscaping that is native to your area.

Hello. Bun Bun should have access to both dry hay and fresh grass. While rabbits like to chew on fresh grass they also should eat dry hay to regulate and stimulate their gastro-intetinal tract. Please, remeber to offer vegetables, like cucmber, lettuce or small amount of carrot. You can add also a piece of apple from time to time. Be careful with other 'weeds' as some plants may cause gastro-intestinal problems in rabbits.

For the most part, traditional lawn fertilizers (that typically contain nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium) are only toxic if large volumes are ingested. If you use a liquid fertilizer or it rains after you apply granules you should wait until the grass is dry before allowing the rabbits to have access. If you simply apply granules it's unlikely that they would be able to ingest enough to cause an issue. You can certainly also look for a product that is labeled to be safe for pets.

I think it is safe for Twitch to play in your back yard on artificial grass if you are supervising. The shorter the artificial grass the less likely it is that he will be interested in chewing it. Great job getting your bunny the exercise he needs!
