MCRS Supply Sales
Every bunny needs a steady supply of food pellets and hay. In the Twin Cities area, you can buy these supplies from MCRS and support the education and adoption efforts at the same time.
MCRS features two kinds of pellets: one alfalfa-based and the other Timothy-based. Timothy and orchard grass hays are also available, as well as three specialty kinds of hay. All MCRS hay and one of the types of pellets sold are Oxbow Animal Health products.
Hay and food pellets are sold by the pound-so you can buy as much or as little as you want. Please bring your own container, like a Rubbermaid bin, with you at the time of purchase. For hay purchases, please note that the number of gallons the container will hold is slightly higher than the number of pounds of hay it will hold. For example, a 33-gallon container holds about 25 pounds of hay and a 14-gallon container holds about 10 pounds.
Selected Bunnydale items are also available at these locations.
Locations
Hay and food pellets are currently available in two locations - South Saint Paul and Brooklyn Center. South St Paul is open during all publicly scheduled events, which occur at least once a week. Check the event calendar to see when the next event is scheduled. Brooklyn Center is open by appointment only. Contact us to make an appointment. Please leave your name and contact information, and someone will get back to you. Be sure to allow at least two days for a response.
We are looking for volunteers to staff the South St. Paul supply site, which is located in our office/event suite. The more volunteers we get, the more hours this location will be available for public sales. We are also looking for volunteers to host a supply site in their home. If you have an interest, please contact us for more information.
Pricing
Rest assured, you get one of the best buys in town! As a comparison, the average price for 48 ounces of Timothy hay at a local pet store is $13. Compare that to the low cost of $4.50 from MCRS! And remember, you supply the container so you can purchase the amount of hay right for you and your rabbit.
