Why FreshGrass hay is so popular

Hay is all about texture, aroma, and acceptance. FreshGrass is processed so that the hay stays crisp and pleasantly scented. This is especially noticeable with animals that like to "pick": they're more likely to pick a good stem, enjoy picking, and spend more time at the manger.

Cucumber & red cornflower: variation without the hassle

This flavor is designed for variety: the aroma and subtle additions make it interesting, without having to replace your entire base hay. Handy if your animal is a bit picky, or if you want to make foraging a little more fun.

From natural pasture to Fresh-Bag

FreshGrass hay is harvested from (natural) meadows that are consciously managed. Mowing later helps preserve plant diversity. After mowing, the hay is carefully dried with warm air and then hand-selected and packaged. The packaging is designed to protect the hay as much as possible while still allowing sufficient air circulation.

Which animals is this hay suitable for?

• Rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and degus: ideal as a variation on your basic daily hay.
• Rats and (larger) rodents: fun to pick and as an extra enrichment in the enclosure.
• Mice, (dwarf) hamsters and gerbils: suitable as nesting material and for use in hamster scaping/gerbil scaping.

How to use FreshGrass in your enclosure

• Feed in a manger or hay corner so that the hay remains clean and attractive.
• Hide small tufts throughout the enclosure to entice foraging.
• For hamster scaping: place layers of hay between the bedding, this helps keep tunnels sturdy for longer.

Good to know

• Hay is a natural product; color and texture may vary slightly from harvest to harvest.
• Store in a dry and cool place, preferably in the (closed) original bag.
• Not intended for food producing animals.

FAQ

Is this hay suitable for unlimited feeding?
For rabbits and larger rodents, unlimited hay is usually the foundation. This option is especially helpful as an extra variation alongside your regular hay.

Is hay also useful for (dwarf) hamsters and mice?
Yes, especially as nesting material and enrichment. They like to drag it to their nest and sometimes nibble on it, especially when they want to be extra active.

How do I keep hay fresh for the longest time?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Close the bag after use and avoid storing in a damp place.

Why do many people choose low-dust hay?
Low-dust hay is more pleasant to use (less "dust cloud" when filling) and often remains more attractive because the stems remain nice and crisp.
