A good hay rack

A good hay rack should be made in such a way that the rodents can get their muzzle part between the bars, but this usually only works very well with vertical bars (because most animal noses are not that wide, but they are high / long). However, the animals must not be able to stick their heads through, otherwise their heads can get trapped between the bars. If you see that the head of your rodent can pass through the bars and get trapped, take the rack out of the enclosure and choose a rack with a smaller distance between bars.

How wide the bar distance should be depends on the animal species, roughly the following distances are common for the following animal species:

Degus: 2.5 to 3 cm
Chinchillas about 2.5 - 3 cm
Guinea pig: about 3 cm
Dwarf rabbits: about 3 - 3.5 cm
Medium sized rabbits up to about 4 cm
Large Rabbits: up to about 4.5 cm
