Growing teeth of rodents & rabbits
The teeth of rodents and rabbits always grow. The teeth wear through gnawing. By a deviation or trauma, teeth can grow crooked and then grow into the jaw or cheek. This is very painful and sometimes an animal can not even eat. Then contact the vet, who can sharpen the teeth to the right length.
The chance of dental problems decreases by providing enough gnawing material. Hay food is very important for this, there must be unlimited access to hay. For better dental care / wear, the choice of fiber-rich hay is sensible. The animal then makes more chewing movements and the tooth wear is promoted. Naturally, hay also offers various vitamins and minarels.

Konijn vindt het lekker, het ziet er goed uit, het is wel in korte stukjes gesneden, dus ik meng het nu nog met ander hooi voor meer knabbelplezier
Het was perfect geregeld
Goede kwaliteit hooi, mijn konijnen eten het graag. Zeker een aanrader bij blaasproblematiek (blaaszand) vanwege het lage calciumgehalte.
Mijn cavia's eten het graag. Het ziet er goed uit en ruikt lekker. Wel veel gruis onderin de zak.
Dit hooi gekocht omdat een van mijn konijnen op een calciumarmdieet moest. Ze smullen ervan!
Ik kocht dit hooi altijd bij de dierenwinkel, helaas was het uit het assortiment gehaald. We hebben toen een tijdje ander hooi geprobeerd, maar deze bevalt tot nu toe het beste.
