JR Farm Dandelion with Marigold for Rodents & Rabbits

JR Farm Dandelion is a fragrant, green herb mix for rodents and rabbits. The mix consists of 80% dandelion and 20% marigold blossoms. This makes it a lovely floral snack for animals that enjoy sniffing, searching, and nibbling in the hay or in a foraging area.

Dandelion is loved by many animals for its spicy scent and natural texture. The marigold blossoms add extra color to the mix and make it just a little more cheerful. You can feed JR Farm Dandelion separately, mix it with hay, or hide it in small amounts in the enclosure.

JR Farm Dandelion is available in various packaging sizes, including 100 grams, 400 gram buckets, 500 grams, and 5 kg. As this is supplementary feed, you should feed small amounts alongside the normal main feed and hay. At 2 grams per day, 100 grams will last approximately 50 days. At 5 grams per day, this is approximately 20 days.

Why choose JR Farm Paardenbloem?

JR Farm Dandelion is one of those herbal snacks that immediately adds atmosphere to the haytime. The green dandelion has a spicy scent and the marigold provides a beautiful yellow flower color. As a result, the mix stands out well among the hay, inviting animals to sniff and search.

The composition is nice and straightforward: dandelion and marigold blossom. That is pleasant for owners who like to know exactly what they are feeding. Not a busy mix with many different extras, but a clear combination of herbs and flowers.

You can sprinkle a small amount through the hay, use it in a snuffle mat, or hide it among safe bedding. For rabbits and guinea pigs, this makes hay time more interesting. For hamsters, dwarf hamsters, mice, gerbils, and rats, you can use small amounts as a foraging snack.

Because JR Farm Dandelion is a complementary food, do not feed it as the main food. For rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and degus, hay remains the daily basis. For other rodents, use this mix primarily as a small green variation alongside an appropriate main food.

For which animals is this dandelion suitable?

JR Farm Dandelion is suitable as a supplementary snack for rabbits and various rodents. Always adjust the quantity to the animal species, size, and normal feeding pattern.

• Rabbits: as a herbal supplement mixed into the hay or as a small reward.
• Guinea pigs: as a green variety alongside hay and guinea pig food.
• Hamsters and dwarf hamsters: as foraging herb, for example hidden in the enclosure.
• Mice and gerbils: as a sniffing and searching mix through a foraging area.
• Rats and pygmy rats: as a small supplement or reward during foraging.
• Chinchillas and degus: as a small, herb-rich variation alongside hay and species-appropriate food.

Usage & dosage

Give JR Farm Dandelion as a supplementary herbal mix. Sprinkle a small amount over the hay, mix it into a sniffing area, or offer it in a food bowl. For small animals, a pinch is often sufficient. For larger animals such as rabbits and guinea pigs, you can dose a little more generously, but keep it supplementary.

Do you want to use dandelion for foraging? Then distribute small amounts in different places in the enclosure. This way, your animal has to search, and the snack time immediately becomes more active and fun.

Allow animals to get used to it gradually if they are unfamiliar with dandelions. Start with a small amount and observe how your animal reacts. Remove any leftovers if they become damp or dirty.
