History of the Hazelnut plant
The seeds of this shrub, which are in a hard shell, are a popular food, but oil can also be pressed from them.

It's actually a very natural approach to how the wildlife also wears their teeth, they do this by gnawing on different types of branches, so in that sense the Hazelnut harvest appeals to the natural behavior of rodents and rabbits!

Do all Rodents and Rabbits like the Hazelnut Harvest?

Yes for sure! The Hazelnut Harvest falls under the harvest with leaves , which is different from harvest with seeds or harvest with herbs . The harvest with leaves is best suited as food for herbivorous (plant-eating) rodents (guinea pig, chinchilla, degu) and rabbit. These animals like to eat the leaves as a source of fiber and then nibble on the branches with the added function of wearing down the teeth.

The granivorous (seed-eating) rodents, such as mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils and rats eat the leaves less quickly, they only do this when they need extra fiber. The Hazelnut harvest will mainly be used as an extra source of fiber and as a healthy gnawing material for these animals.

Is gnawing important for rodents?

Some rodents gnaw wood very actively and others don't at all. It is on the one hand a matter of taste, but on the other hand a matter of need. If a rodent has no need to gnaw because the teeth stay at a good length through food, hay or other nibbles, then he will gnaw on wood less. It is good to always offer natural gnawing material so that the animals can always gnaw if they have a need to gnaw.

Gnawing wood is used by rodents to wear down their teeth. Because the teeth of rodents always grow, they need to be chewed regularly so that they do not become too long and grow crooked.

How long does the Hazelnut Harvest last?

That differs greatly for which animal you use it and what the gnawing needs of the animals are. If they have a great gnawing need and it is urgent that the teeth are sharpened, the harvest will be nibbled up quickly, but in practice we actually see that animals nibble on it regularly and that the harvest lasts several changes.

Does the harvest always have such beautiful green leaves?

Unfortunately, that is not always the case. The harvest is dried, so that the leaves are also dried. Just like in nature, the leaves detach quickly when they are dry. In addition to the drying process, nature also influences the shape and richness of this natural product and it can differ significantly from the harvest in the photo shown.
