Hay House Wortel for Rodents & Rabbits

JR Farm Hay House Carrot for Rodents & Rabbits

JR Farm Hay House Carrot is a natural shelter and chew house for rodents and rabbits. The house is made with mountain meadow hay, lignocellulose, plant starch, and a tasty carrot topping. This provides your animal not only with a sheltered spot to crawl into, but also something to sniff, pull, and nibble on.

You can choose from three sizes: small, medium, and large. The small version is a nice fit for small rodents such as hamsters, dwarf hamsters, and mice. The medium version is suitable for animals such as guinea pigs and degus. The large version offers more space and is therefore suitable for larger rodents and rabbits, depending on the size of your animal.

A hay house immediately adds extra atmosphere and structure to the enclosure. You can use it as a hiding place, a chew toy, or as part of a natural setup. The root topping makes the little house extra attractive to explore.

Why choose JR Farm Hooihuis Wortel?

A nice shelter gives your pet a place to retreat for a while. This is especially pleasant for animals that like shelter, such as hamsters, mice, gerbils, guinea pigs, degus, rats, and rabbits. JR Farm Hay House Carrot combines that shelter with natural materials and an attractive carrot topping.

The little house has a sturdy structure and can be used for nibbling, sniffing, and exploring. The exterior consists of fiber-rich plant parts, while the carrot-filled top is especially interesting for animals that enjoy discovering something tasty.

You can place the hay house loosely in the enclosure, partially nestled among the bedding, or use it as part of a natural setup. For extra foraging fun, you can place a small amount of hay or suitable herbs around the entrance. This way, the little house immediately becomes part of the daily sniffing and searching.

Because JR Farm Hooihuis Wortel is also a complementary food, it does not replace main feed or daily hay. View it primarily as natural enrichment: a hiding place, nibbling area, and discovery area all in one.

For which animals is the hay house suitable?

JR Farm Carrot Hay House is suitable as natural enrichment for rodents and rabbits. Choose the size that suits the animal and the enclosure.

• Hamsters and dwarf hamsters: the small variety usually makes a nice hiding and gnawing house.
• Mice: the small variant is nice as a natural hiding place and place of discovery.
• Gerbils: choose an appropriate size depending on the group size and the enclosure.
• Guinea pigs: the medium-sized variety often makes a good place to chew and hide.
• Degus: the medium-sized variant is suitable as a natural gnawing structure and hiding place.
• Rats and dwarf rats: usually choose medium or large, depending on the size of the animals.
• Rabbits: the large variant can be used as a natural nibbling and exploration spot, depending on the size of your rabbit.

Usage & placement

Place the hay house in a dry spot in the enclosure. Set it down firmly so that your animal can easily get in and out. For animals that like to dig, you can partially incorporate the house into the bedding for a natural look.

Do you want to turn it into a foraging moment? Then place some hay or suitable herbs around the entrance. Your animal will then have to sniff and search, making the little house even more interesting.

Inspect the hay house regularly during use. Remove loose, wet, or dirty debris to keep the enclosure fresh. If the house has been heavily gnawed on or no longer stays tidy, you can replace it.
