Why choose FreshGras Vital Vegetables?

For many animals, hay is more than just a side dish. Its texture encourages long chewing and leisurely feeding, and an appealing aroma and length often determine whether your animal will truly enjoy it. FreshGras has been developed as a complete hay concept: a rich mix of grasses and herbs, carefully processed to keep the hay fresh and prevent it from breaking down into short crumbs. The vegetable mix adds variety without overshadowing the foundation (good hay).

Which animals is this suitable for?

FreshGras Hay Vital Vegetables is suitable for dwarf rabbits and many rodents. The instructions for use vary depending on the animal species:

• For rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus: hay is a daily staple and should always be available.
• For small rodents that build nests of hay (mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils): especially nice as nesting and enrichment material, and for occasional nibbling.

Feeding & use per animal

• Mouse: Place a tuft of it on a regular hay patch or mix it with nesting material; it's fun to drag and nest in.
• Dwarf hamster: Use as nesting material and in small clumps through the ground cover; ideal for hamster scaping.
• Hamster (golden hamster): as nesting material and structure in the enclosure; also suitable for making tunnels extra sturdy.
• Gerbil: Mix layers of hay through the bedding (gerbil scaping) for more "body" and more stable gaits.
• Guinea pig: offer unlimited amounts, preferably in a hay rack or hay bag; refresh daily.
• Rabbit: Offer unlimited hay (trough/hay area); feel free to alternate with other types of hay for variety.
• Chinchilla: Offer in abundance; always choose clean, dry, dust-free hay and change it daily.
• Degu: Offer in unlimited quantities; hay is the fiber base of the daily routine.

Tip for less waste: offer hay preferably in a manger or hay bag and give it "little but often" to keep it fresh.

Compound

Composition: hay, beetroot, paprika, parsnip (vegetables 6%).

Good to know

• Store hay in a dry, cool place out of direct sunlight to preserve its aroma, colour and texture.
• Change hay regularly, especially when it becomes damp or comes into contact with urine.
• Introduce a new type of hay slowly if your animal reacts sensitively to changes in the diet.
• Always check for loose dust at the bottom of the bag; you can shake it out if necessary.

FAQ

Is this hay a “basic feed” or more of a treat?
For rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and degus, hay is always a staple food and should be readily available. For mice, (dwarf) hamsters, and gerbils, it primarily serves as nesting material and enrichment.

What makes FreshGras different from “normal” hay?
FreshGras is dried indoors and packaged by hand, keeping the blades longer and firmer. The mix of different plants and the addition of vegetables provide extra variety in aroma and texture.

Can I use this hay for hamster scaping or gerbil scaping?
Yes. Layers of hay mixed with the bedding provide more stability and a natural look. Alternate hay and bedding for a beautiful landscape and more stable tunnels.

Which hay rack is best suited for this?
A hay rack that keeps the hay dry and is easy to fill works best. Depending on your enclosure, choose a hanging hay rack or a sturdy standing one.
