Free extras for rodents & rabbits – experiments, measuring cups and more
Free extras for rodents and rabbits
Sometimes a little extra is exactly what makes an order even better. In the Free category, you will find varying free extras for rodents and rabbits, such as trial bags, small samples, handy measuring cups, or other add-ons that you can add to your order when available.
When it comes to free extras, DRD doesn't just look at "take it for free," but primarily at something that is genuinely handy or fun. A sample sachet can help you test a food, spice mix, or botanical snack at your leisure. A measuring cup can make measuring easier. And through the loyalty program in your account, you can also save up for extra benefits or free products when that option is available.
In short
✓ Free extras are intended as a nice bonus with an order, not as a separate main product.
✓ The selection changes regularly and depends on stock, promotions, and availability.
✓ There is usually a limited quantity per species, so that as many owners as possible can enjoy them.

Sample sachets
It is handy to quietly try out a food, herbal product, botanical snack, or other small product on your pet.
Measuring cups
A measuring cup can be handy for measuring out food, especially when you like to keep track of the daily portion.
Varying extras
Sometimes temporary extras are available. The selection may vary depending on stock, promotion, or season.
Why are free extras useful?
Free extras are especially handy when you want to try something new without immediately choosing a large package. A sample sachet can help see if your pet finds the scent, texture, or taste interesting. This is particularly nice for food, herbs, botanical mixes, and snacks, as animals sometimes have clear preferences.
A measuring cup or practical accessory can be particularly helpful in the daily routine. You can measure food more easily, compare portions better, or introduce a new food in a more structured way. This aligns well with DRD's approach to product selection: not just buying, but using it properly.
The selection varies. That makes this category fun to take a quick look at when you are placing an order anyway. Is there nothing suitable listed, or is something temporarily out of stock? Then you can always look specifically at the regular categories.
Terms and conditions short and clear
✓ Free products are intended as an extra with an order.
✓ A limited quantity usually applies per type, often 1 piece per type.
✓ The selection varies and depends on stock and promotions.
✓ If a free extra is sold out, it may temporarily disappear or be unavailable for order.
✓ Always check the product itself to see if specific conditions or restrictions apply.
Extra benefit through the savings program
In addition to free extras in this category, you can often also save up for extra benefits with an account. When logged in, you can view your reward points in your account and see which options are available. For instance, you can accumulate points with orders and, when the option is available, use them for discounts, benefits, or free products.
That makes it convenient to order using your own account. You can then see not only your order history but also whether any savings benefits are available. Can't quite figure it out? You can contact us via our service page , and we'll be happy to help.
Free extras per animal species
Mouse
For mice, choose small extras that suit their size. Think of a small sample, a mini-snack, or something you can offer in small quantities.
Dwarf hamster
For dwarf hamsters, small sample bags are handy when you want to test something new. Always introduce new snacks or mixes gradually and in small quantities.
Hamster
For hamsters, experiments can be useful to discover what your pet finds interesting. Optionally, combine new extras with the hamster food selection guide or the hamster snack selection guide .
Gerbil
For gerbils, you can use small samples as a foraging stimulus in the bedding or among natural decorations. Take into account their active digging and gnawing behavior.
Dwarf rat
Size can vary among dwarf rats. Therefore, choose free extras based on portion size and the individual animal, not just the name dwarf rat.
Rat
For rats, small experiments can be fun as a little reward or a sniffing moment. Also check out the rat food selection guide under nutrition.
Guinea pig
For guinea pigs, sample bags of guinea pig food or botanical extras are handy for testing at a relaxed pace. Keep the basics clear with hay, appropriate guinea pig food, and a vitamin C routine. Also check out the guinea pig food selection guide .
Rabbit
For rabbits, sample bags of rabbit food, herbs, or botanical products can be nice to test alongside hay and their regular food. Also check out rabbit food and rabbit herbs .
Chinchilla
For chinchillas, choose free treats that are simple and species-appropriate. Pay particular attention to dry, fiber-rich products and give new treats in small quantities.
Degoe
Choose degus with extra care. Not every sample fits a low-sugar, simple routine. Always check the composition and application before offering anything.
Practical DRD tip
Do not immediately use a trial sachet as a complete food switch. Offer a small amount, see if your animal accepts it, and only then compare whether the product truly fits into the daily routine.

Power supply
Sample sachets are especially handy when you want to get to know food at your own pace.
Packages
Do you want more variety all at once? Then also take a look at sniffing boxes, herb packages, and fun boxes.

Good to know regarding free extras
Free extras vary

Not intended separately
Free products are intended as an extra with an order. They are not intended as a separate order without other products.
Testing calmly remains important
Even a free trial must suit your pet. Introduce new food, herbs, or snacks gradually and see how your pet reacts.
Loyalty points are account-linked

Frequently asked questions about free extras
Can I order free products separately?
No, free products are intended as an extra with an order. They are therefore not intended as a separate order without other products.
Why am I usually only allowed to choose 1 free product per type?
This way, it remains fairly distributed, and more owners can add a little extra to their order.
How do I know what is currently available for free?
The current selection is listed in this category. If an item is out of stock, it usually temporarily disappears from the selection or is marked as unavailable.
Are free sample bags suitable for all animals?
Not automatically. Always check if the sample sachet is suitable for your animal's species, age, diet, and any sensitivities.
How do I use a free sample bag of food?
Use it as an introduction. Give a small amount alongside the normal routine and see if your animal accepts it. Never switch completely to a new food suddenly.
What can I do if no free extra is available?
The selection changes. You can check back later or continue shopping specifically for food, snacks, spices, packages, or outlet products.
How does saving via my account work?
Once logged in, you can view your reward points in your account. During the ordering process, you will see, when available, whether you can redeem your points for discounts or free products.
