Mountain meadow hay for rodents and rabbits

Order Mountain Meadow Hay for your rodents and rabbits quickly and easily at DRD Rodent Shop®

Delicious, aromatic hay from the fresh mountain meadows – pure nature for your rodent!

Mountain meadow hay is a special hay sourced from high-altitude mountain pastures. The fresh air, cool temperatures, and rich biodiversity of these mountainous regions allow the grass and herbs to grow slowly, developing an extra-concentrated flavor and nutritional value. The hay is carefully harvested at the perfect ripeness and then gently dried to optimally preserve its texture, aroma, and nutrients .

The result? Fresh, aromatic hay with sturdy stems, a high fiber content, and a natural blend of herbs and plants that is both tasty and healthy for your rabbits and rodents.

Why mountain meadow hay is so valuable
Mountain meadow hay offers all the benefits of regular meadow hay, but with an added dimension of taste and quality:

✔ Excellent digestion: The fiber-rich stems ensure healthy intestinal function and contribute to optimal bowel movements.
✔ Ideal for dental care: The firm structure of mountain meadow hay encourages natural chewing and helps keep the teeth of your rabbit, guinea pig or degu healthy.
✔ Natural enrichment: Mountain meadow hay contains a wider variety of herbs and plants than standard hay, allowing your pet to eat a varied and natural diet. It encourages foraging behavior and keeps them active and happy.
✔ Pure nature, without additives: Just like our regular meadow hay, mountain meadow hay is 100% natural, free from artificial additives, sugars, or chemicals.
