Did you know that millet also grows wild in the Netherlands? It is one of the first cultivated crops in the Netherlands. Nice to know that millet is gluten free. Very important amino acids can be found in the proteins of millet. Furthermore, millet is very rich in iron, magnesium, copper, phosphorus and manganese.
Millet also contains vitamins B1 and B6. In addition to a remarkably high protein content, millet is also very rich in silicic acid (silicon). Silicic acid supports the construction of skin, coat and nails. A special property of millet is that it supports temperature management. This makes millet extremely suitable for older animals.
The millet is particularly suitable for seed-eating rodents such as mice, hamsters, gerbils and rats.
Yes, of course! Millet Harvest is great to use in hamsterscaping. Hamsterscaping is all about approaching the natural behavior of the animals. Small rodents such as Mice, Dwarf Hamsters, Hamsters, Gerbils and Rats are real seed eaters (granivores), by offering seed-rich harvest such as the Millet, the natural behavior of the animals is addressed. Animals that can show their natural behavior are happy and comfortable in their own skin, so it is very important for the health of the animal.
Yes for sure! The Plume Millet Harvest falls under the harvest with seeds , which is different from harvest with leaves or harvest with herbs . The harvest with seeds is best suited as food for the Granivore (seed-eating) rodents, such as mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils and rats.
Yes for sure! Millet Harvest presents a lot of challenge because the animals have to harvest the seeds from the plant themselves. After all, the seeds are not offered separately but really have to be removed from the plant and that provides extra enrichment, which we also call feed enrichment.
There are many ways to offer the Plume Millet Harvest, also a bit depending on the objective. You can easily place the Pluim Millet Harvest on the bedding, but if you want your animal to make an effort, you can place the Pluy Millet upright in the bedding, with a layer of at least 20 cm that is perfectly doable.
It is also possible to fix it to the bars of the accommodation with a snack clamp .
It is also possible to attach the Millet to glass by means of a suction cup clamp .
All rodents eat the Millet in their own way, some rodents hold it with their hands and others nibble it off. Many small rodents will take the seeds back to their nests and store them there for later.
Although the Millet seeds are high in fat, they are healthy fats that are essential for the health of the animals, so it is not an extreme fattener.
It is nice to know that we receive this crop directly from the manufacturer and can therefore offer very good freshness. In our warehouse, the harvest is kept cool, dry and UV-free. The latter is important to prevent the breakdown of nutrients by UV light. We therefore recommend that you always store the harvest in a dark, cool and dry place.

Mijn hamsters vinden het heerlijk, maar dari staat toch op nummer 1
Pluimgierst is een van de zadenplanten die ik steevast in mijn verblijf heb. De meeste hamsters vinden het erg lekker, het geeft ze iets te doen tegen verveling en het stimuleert natuurlijk gedrag. Bovendien voegt het extra geuren toe aan het verblijf wat erg belangrijk is voor hamsters aangezien ze vooral hun neus gebruiken omdat ze slechtziend zijn. Het staat ook prachtig en omdat het zo weelderig is geeft het ze een gevoel van beschutting, ze kunnen er heerlijk onder schuilen, wat fijn is omdat het prooidieren zijn. Er zit altijd best veel in 1 verpakking dus zeker de moeite waard om eens te proberen.
Mijn hamster is er gek op. Hij knabbelt het op tot het laatste zaadje.
Mijn hamster vindt dit echt superlekker. Maar zelfs als dat niet het geval zou zijn zou ik het nog kopen voor de decoratieve waarde. Het maakt het hamsterverblijf helemaal af. Er zit ook echt veel in een verpakking en je kunt er dus flink mee aan de slag.
Leuk om mee te hamsterscapen. Word ook lekker aan geknabbeld
