Default Which hay for enrichment?

Hey,

I've been looking at adding some different substrates for our new boy Milo, he currently has a sand box, kaytee paper bedding and aspen.
I've ordered a coco brick and I'm looking to get some hay but unsure which to get. I've read timothy hay can be too sharp unless it's the 2nd or 3rd cut.

I've seen some hays described as soft bedding hay and some hays with added extras such as dandelions. I'm going round in circles trying to research.

Recommendations would be greatly appreciated

TIA

Unsure how to edit so replying to add that I've decided against the hay and am now thinking readigrass would be a better option?

I've also added some sprays and grapevine branches today.
We scatter feed and add some flower/fruit/herb mixes once or twice a week.

Any more suggestions for enrichment would be great.

Thanks

I use orchard grass hay mixed with paper bedding because I heard it helps support their burrows.
