Anyone Ordered from KMS Lately?
What shipping service does KMS use? I need to order hays and pellets and have had them shipped to the office in the past. Remote working has been successful, so my employer is looking to downsize our office space. The cubicle that I store all my piggie supplies in will no longer be available. I need to start shipping the hays and pellet to my home. I live in a city where quite a bit of porch pirate activity have taken place, so I need to make sure I'm working from home the day supplies are delivered.
I switched my two piggies to KMS Timothy pellets over the summer and they loved them (I have one very picky girl and one who will eat literally anything). Last week, I got a new 10lb bag and neither of them will touch them (well, the non-picky one has had a few). I contacted them today and all they could say was "sorry" and that they haven't changed anything. Anyone else have this issue? We need a low calcium pellet. Any alternatives?

That's not stellar customer service. I just got a new bag a few days ago, and am not sure what to think. Our guys are eating it, but my senior pig with a history of chronic GI issues and doesn't adjust well to dietary changes, had a major episode yesterday. I have wondered if the pellets have changed in some way.

What the heck? $34 for a 10 lb. bag of KMS on Amazon?

The pellets were never a good deal in terms of price. The hay used to be a better relative value (against Oxbow, for example) but (perhaps except this current season) has always been far, far better quality than the other brands.
My pigs seem to prefer KMS. I'll alternate with Oxbow from time to time, and at first they are interested in trying something new, but then will revert to KMS if they are presented with both.

I received my box a few days ago. The 2nd cut Timothy was not what I expected. Hard and brittle. Nothing like the Oxbow hay I'd bought. But I only bought a little for enrichment so we'll see. The oat hay looked fine and the bluegrass was its usual excellent quality.
My pigs wouldn't eat the pellets. Well, they would after a while but left them till the end. So the cost and inconvenience didn't make it worth it for us. I have switched Oxbow brands because the one I usually use was sold out and they seem to like the new pellets. So I don't know why the didn't care for KMS.
