Hay bags for rodents and rabbits
With a hay bag, you can offer hay in a clean, organized, and space-saving way. Hanging the hay bag in a fixed location reduces the risk of hay ending up in bedding or litter boxes. For rabbits and herbivores like rabbits , guinea pigs , chinchillas , and degus , this is often a welcome improvement in their daily routine. You'll find sturdy hay bags in various sizes and openings, so you can choose the one that best suits your enclosure and your animals. Specialist since 2011.

Why choose a hay bag?
- Tidier hay storage: hay often stays dry and usable for longer.

Types of hay bags

How to choose the right hay bag
- Size: choose a size that suits the animal species and how much hay you want to add per day.
- Number of animals: Multiple animals? Then a multi-opening model is often more convenient.

- Attachment: Check whether you can hang the hay bag securely on your type of enclosure.
Placement: this way hay stays neat for longer

FAQ Hay Bags
Is a hay bag better than a hay rack?
That depends on your accommodation and your animals. A hay bag saves space and is often extra tidy; a manger is very organized and sturdy. Many customers use both: a permanent hay area and an extra area in the run.
How often should I refill the hay bag?
This varies by animal and consumption. Keep the hay area well-stocked and replace any hay that is damp or soiled.
My pet pulls everything out. What now?
Choose a model with multiple smaller openings and hang the bag securely (preferably from two points). If necessary, place a collection tray or mat under the hay area to keep it clean.
Which type of hay works well in a hay bag?
This is often the hay your animal enjoys and eats consistently. You can vary it with timothy , meadow hay , and herbal hay .
