Raising a piggy in India
Guys, I live in Bangalore, and will not always have information on things in other states. But guess how I found the information that I DO have? By doing searches on the net! Google is your friend!
If you are interested in having more hay options, start ordering from the site and talking to them, so they know that there is interest in Oxbow or other piggy products.
Ag, the price on the site is pretty much what I pay in stores here. The site may be better to order from, because the product turnover will be higher. Try talking to the company about buying in bulk. Maybe they can give you a deal.
Sahil, try the link, dude! The money you pay for shipping from the states will be more expensive.
Bpatters is right about the hay shipments being in tons. I've spoken to several companies regarding this. Even companies in Bombay will not send me less than 2 tons.
The horse farms in Bangalore do not have good quality hay (lots of bugs and mold), but perhaps farther up you'll get something good?

Ag, also regarding the pair of piggies you have, the guy who sold you your pigs is COMPLETELY wrong. Please gain as much information as you can on this site, just as Pooja has.
Let the breeder also know how much damage he is causing by giving out the wrong information just to sell off the pigs and make money.

Ebay is great! Try it out! Has no one ordered from the link I posted?? Guys, the website may be a little more pricey than you'd like, but isn't it better than no hay at all??
**For any piggy slaves in Bangalore**
My piggy, Pinky, just had a bladder stone removed today, and the vets were wonderful! They are not exotic specialists, but they are the best vets I've found so far!

Puja, i had ordered timothy hay from indiapetstore on 13 Nov but i haven't received it yet. The people there keep saying that it will come in a week but their week just doesn't seem to get over.
I will wait for this week otherwise will talk to people on chubbypetsgarden, the link which Sahil provided,and see if they could give me a good deal.
Meanwhile, i am planning to grow wheatgrass at home and giving it fresh to my piggies, maybe once or twice a day. Should i give them more??
Good to hear that Pinky will not have to suffer now. Hope he is doing well? Good wishes and kisses for him..
