Flake mix: crunchy variety for foraging & scattering

Want to make feeding and snacking a little more fun without making it complicated? This Flake Mix is a tasty blend of various flakes and seeds that you can use as enrichment: sprinkled throughout the enclosure, hidden in hay, or used in a food puzzle. Ideal for curious rodents who love to search, gather, and nibble.

✔ Crunchy mix with multiple textures (flakes + seeds)
✔ Easy to dose: sprinkle, hide or offer by hand
✔ Makes feeding and snacking moments more active by encouraging search behavior
✔ Fits well with natural enrichment (foraging) in the enclosure

Why this flake mix is such a great addition

Many animals not only enjoy eating but especially love to "find" their food. By sprinkling a small amount of flake mix through bedding, hay, or a sniffing mat, you can transform an ordinary moment into a small activity. That's precisely what enrichment is all about: providing something extra that reflects natural behaviors like searching, sorting, and gathering.

The different ingredients provide variety in texture and flavor. Think of airy flakes (like oats and quinoa) and small seeds (like pearl millet) that are easy to hide. Fenugreek adds an extra spicy twist that will arouse the curiosity of many rodents.

How to use the Flake Mix

You can offer this mix in several ways. Choose what suits your pet and your routine:

• Sprinkle a small amount around the enclosure so your pet can find it.
• Hide it in hay or in a forage container.
• Use it as a topping over (part of) the daily food.
• Combine with enrichment such as food puzzles or sniffing materials.

Which animal is this suitable for?

Mouse

Mice are real foragers. Sprinkle a small amount throughout the enclosure or offer it in a puzzle feeder. It works well as a diversion from their daily food.

Dwarf hamster

Use it primarily as a forage topping: a small pinch spread throughout the enclosure. This way, it remains a nice addition to the main food.

Hamster

Perfect for hamster scaping: sprinkle it in various corners so your hamster can "work" for its treat. It also combines well with hay and a foraging dish.

Gerbil

Gerbils love to search and select. Sprinkle a little bit in the sand area or in a foraging area. Ideal for gerbil scaping as a playful snack layer.

Dwarf rat

As an enrichment, you can use it in a sniffing mat or scattered throughout the enclosure. Dwarf rats often enjoy sorting through different pieces.

Rat

Rats are smart and active: turn them into a search game by hiding them in paper strips or a food puzzle. They're also great as a small topping for variety.

Guinea pig

This is a real treat for guinea pigs. Give a very small amount, preferably not too often. Hay and a suitable staple food remain the foundation; this mix is the "pleasant surprise."

Rabbit

For rabbits, too, use sparingly as a treat. Sprinkle a small amount on hay or use it as a reward. The daily basis remains hay and suitable rabbit food.

Chinchilla

Chinchillas are sensitive and have specific dietary needs. Therefore, use this mix only as a very small treat and not as a fixed part of the daily ration.

Compound

Amaranth flakes, buckwheat flakes, spelt flakes, barley flakes, quinoa flakes, oat flakes, pearl millet seeds, fenugreek.
