Nettle Pellets 200 grams for Rodents and Rabbits

Knaagdier Kruidenier® Nettle Pellets are compact nettle herbal pellets for rodents and rabbits. Thanks to their pellet shape, they are easy to portion, convenient as a reward, and very suitable for use in a treat ball, treat bowl, snuffle mat, or during foraging moments.

DRD chooses herbal pellets because they are a practical way to offer natural herbal variety. While loose leaves primarily provide texture and scattering, pellets are particularly useful when you want to reward specifically, control dosage, or let your animal search for something. This way, you easily add scent, flavor, and activity to the daily feeding time.

Why choose nettle pellets?

Nettle pellets are particularly handy when you want to offer herbs in a compact, easy-to-dose form. You can feed them separately, mix them with food, put them in a treat ball, or scatter them around the enclosure. This makes them suitable for owners who not only want to provide variety but also want to add more foraging and activity.

For guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, nettle pellets are a good herbal supplement alongside good hay and appropriate basic food. For mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils, dwarf rats, and rats, they are especially fun as a small reward or foraging stimulus in a snuffle mat, snack board, or layer of dry bedding.

By not just placing pellets in a bowl, but instead hiding them or letting them roll, you make the snack time more active. Your animal has to smell, search, and work for the reward. This aligns well with natural foraging behavior.

For which animals are Nettle Pellets suitable?

• Mouse: suitable as a small reward or foraging stimulus. Use small pieces or a limited quantity, tailored to the size of the animal.
• Dwarf hamster: suitable as a small herbal reward in a snack bowl, snuffle mat, or hamsterscaping setup. Dose small and spread out.
• Hamster: suitable as a compact herbal pellet for rewarding and foraging. Fun to hide among bedding, hay, or a dry foraging layer.
• Gerbil: suitable as a small pellet reward or search game. Gerbils can track down, carry, and examine the pellets.
• Dwarf rat: suitable as a forage supplement, depending on group size and acceptance. Dwarf rats can vary in size, so dose according to use and body size.
• Rat: suitable as a reward in a treat ball, treat bowl, snuffle mat, or digging box. Rats enjoy working for small food rewards.
• Guinea pig: suitable as a herbal supplement alongside hay and guinea pig food. Use the pellets in a treat bowl, mixed in with hay, or as a small reward.
• Rabbit: suitable as a herbal pellet alongside the daily hay routine. Handy as a reward, in a treat ball, or as a small topping over hay.
• Chinchilla: suitable as a herbal supplement in appropriate portions. Combine with good hay and a simple, fiber-rich basic diet.
• Degu: suitable as a herbal pellet within a simple, high-fiber diet. Use consciously, for example as a reward or in a foraging game.

How do you offer Nettle Pellets?

• Give a few pellets as a small reward.
• Scatter pellets around the enclosure so your animal has to search for them.
• Use them in a snack ball, snack plate, or snuffle mat.
• Mix a small amount with hay or herbs.
• Hide pellets in a digging bucket or dry forage layer.
• Use as a supplement to the daily basic diet.

Start slowly if your animal is not yet familiar with nettle pellets. This allows your animal to get used to the smell, taste, and texture. Remove pellets when they have become damp or dirty.

Good to know

Nettle Pellets are a natural herbal supplement that can be used in various ways: as a reward, mixed with hay, in a treat ball, or as a search game in the enclosure. For guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, herbal pellets are useful as variety alongside a fiber-rich base.
