If my animal eats the hemp, will it harm them?

Your pet may nibble at the hemp bedding out of curiosity at first, this is common with many animals. They quickly lose interest. Hemp hurd is part of the plant but not appealing to many animals’ palettes. If you notice your Pet is eating abnormal amounts of their bedding, there could be an underlying issue and you should contact a veterinarian.

We own goats and alpacas. Is the hemp bedding safe for them?

Yes, we have goat and alpaca breeders that use our hemp bedding.

This is our favorite question; the answer is NO. There is no THC in our hemp bedding.
