Rodent Herbalist Dried Lucerne, also known as alfalfa, is a natural herbal and fiber variety for rodents and rabbits. You use the lucerne as a supplementary snack and foraging variety, for example by mixing a small amount with the hay, hiding it in a sniffing spot, or offering it as a green foraging treat.
This alfalfa is especially nice for owners looking for a recognizable green variety with scent, texture, and chewability. Your pet can sniff it, pluck at it, pick out pieces, and quietly engage in foraging. At DRD, when it comes to herbs, we look not only at taste but also at use: can your pet forage with it, is it easy to dose, and does it fit a mindful herb moment? This dried alfalfa aligns perfectly with that.

✔ Also known as alfalfa
✔ Fun to give loose, mix in hay, or hide

✔ Suitable as a small supplementary herb and fiber variation

De Knaagdier Kruidenier® is the premium private label of DRD Knaagdierwinkel®, featuring natural herbs, flowers, leaves, vegetables, and mixes carefully selected for rodents and rabbits. The emphasis is on natural variety, hay enrichment, foraging, and edible enrichment: DRD chooses what truly feels right for animal and owner.
Dried alfalfa is a great choice when you are looking for a green, natural supplement that is easy to dose. The texture is different from fine herbs, making it fun to mix with hay, place in a sniffing area, or offer specifically as a small snack.
For guinea pigs and rabbits, you can mix a small amount into the hay or place it in a foraging bowl. For chinchillas and degus, alfalfa serves as a suitable green variation alongside hay, herbs, leaves, and branches. For mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils, pygmy rats, and rats, you can use small portions in a sniffing corner, snack board, or natural-style setup.
Because Dried Lucerne is a complementary food, you should not feed it as the main food. Think of it as a natural extra for scent, texture, sniffing, and variety. This lucerne really comes into its own in small quantities.
Knaagdier Kruidenier Dried Lucerne is suitable as a supplementary herbal and fiber variety for rodents and rabbits. Always adjust the quantity to the animal species, size, and normal feeding pattern.
Give dried alfalfa as additional herbal and fiber variety. Use a small amount for small animals. For larger animals, you can mix some alfalfa into the hay, place it in a sniffing mat, or distribute it over a foraging bin.
Do you want to use alfalfa for foraging? Then distribute small amounts in different places in the enclosure, among the hay, in a sniffing mat, or on a treat board. This way, your animal has to search, and a moment with green herbs immediately becomes a small activity.
If you use the lucerne mainly as a topping for hay, the package will last longer. If you use it as a more extensive foraging moment for multiple animals, the package will be used up faster.
Knaagdier Kruidenier Dried Lucerne contains 100 grams. The duration of use depends on how much you give at a time. Because this is supplementary food, small amounts are usually sufficient.
| Usage | Amount per day | Use per package |
|---|---|---|
| Sparing use of topping | 1 gram per day | about 100 days |
| Average use of herbs | 2 grams per day | about 50 days |
| Wider foraging time | 5 grams per day | about 20 days |
This is a practical guideline. Give lucerne as a supplement, not as a replacement for main feed, hay, or the daily basic diet.
