Read moreFood for rodents & rabbits – all types of food clearly presented
In this category, you'll find all rodent foods together: chunks, pellets, muesli/mixed food, and natural food – for mice, (dwarf) hamsters, gerbils, (dwarf) rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus. Convenient if you want to compare, switch, or simply see what's available at a glance. You'll also find practical help with choosing: which type of food is right for your pet, how to prevent selective eating, and how to keep food fresh. Specialists since 2011, so you can choose with confidence and with help.
Chunks, pellets, muesli/mixed, and natural foods are listed here together. This makes comparing and choosing easier, especially if you're just starting out or want to switch.
Make food a search moment: scattering, hiding and foraging helps support natural behavior and makes feeding more fun.
Food thrives best in a well-furnished enclosure. Think of a calming substrate, gnawing material, and plenty of hiding places.
Choosing food: what should you pay attention to?
The basics are simple: choose food that suits your animal's species and eating habits. Some animals thrive on a consistent diet of pellets, while others benefit from more variety. When choosing, consider the following:
- Animal species – herbivore (plant eater) requires something different than omnivore/granivore.
- Eating behavior – being picky/figuring things out requires a different approach than just eating everything neatly.
- Life stage – young, adult and senior can have different needs.
Tip: Make feeding predictable and calm with fixed feeding places, and build up enrichment with safe materials from houses and tunnels .
What types of rodent food can you find here?
In this category you will roughly encounter these types:
- All-in-one chunk/pellet – every bite is comparable, often useful for selective eating.
- Mixed food/muesli – lots of variety, but be sure to “pick and choose”.
- Natural food – natural variation, popular with people who like enriching food.
- Specific variants – for example for juniors or special situations.

Feed by animal species: quick selection guide
This page provides an overview of all food options. The best choice is made based on your animal species:
- Rabbits – food that is based on a high-fiber diet and a calm, consistent routine.
- Guinea pigs – choose food specifically formulated for guinea pigs and combine with suitable supplements.
- Chinchillas & degus – choose species-appropriate food and keep the menu clear.
- (Dwarf) hamsters & gerbils – a varied composition often works well, with food as enrichment.
- (Dwarf) rats & mice – choose by species and life stage; rats eat differently than mice.
Make the enclosure “food-proof” with safe gnawing options and distraction through gnawing material .
Preventing selective eating: here's how to tackle it practically
With mixed feedings, animals can sometimes choose the "favorites" first. This isn't necessarily a disaster, but it can create imbalances. This often helps:
- Work with a weighed portion and only refill when it is (almost) empty.
- Provide (part of) the portion as search food so that eating becomes more relaxed.
- For real “searchers” consider a (partial) base with all-in-one chunks/pellets .
For an extra challenge, combine with sand & sandboxes and foraging areas (dry and clean).
Fresh & storage: how to keep food fresh
Food stays freshest when stored dry, cool, and dark , and bags are sealed tightly. Our purchasing and storage policies consciously prioritize freshness, because quality and storage methods make all the difference in aroma, texture, and ease of use.
Also, ensure a well-equipped enclosure (less spills = easier to clean). Also check out rodent cages and enclosures for practical layouts.
Maintenance & hygiene
- Daily : Remove food scraps from damp areas and check drinking water.
- Weekly : clean feeding areas and bowls thoroughly (warm water, dry well).
- Store food in a sealed container and check occasionally for odor, moisture, and lumps.
Checklist: nutrition well arranged
Just run through this list:
✔ You choose food that suits your animal species and life stage
✔ You avoid having to "sort things out" with portions or a (partial) all-in-one base
✔ Food is stored dry/cool/dark and properly sealed
✔ Feeding is also enrichment (sprinkle/hiding/foraging)
✔ Feeding areas remain clean and tidy
Safety
- When changing food, it is best to switch gradually so that your animal can get used to it slowly.
- Store food dry and replace food that smells damp, is clumpy or no longer looks fresh.
- If you have any doubts about eating/drinking or if your pet exhibits clearly unusual behaviour, consult a veterinarian.
FAQ – frequently asked questions about rodent food
What is better: mixed feed or all-in-one pellets?
That depends on your pet. If your pet is a selective eater (cutting out favorites), an all-in-one diet is often more practical. If your pet eats everything thoroughly, a mixed diet can also be a good fit.
How do I know if my pet is “figuring it out”?
Do you mainly see certain pieces disappear, leaving the same thing behind? Then it helps to work with portions or use a (partially) uniform base.
How often should I feed?
This varies by animal species and type of feed. Check the product instructions and observe feeding behavior and body condition.
Where can I find enrichment related to feeding?
Check out Play & Forage for food puzzles and search moments.
