Read moreGrain-free food – a high-fiber choice for rabbits and herbivorous rodents
Grain-free food is primarily chosen for herbivores such as rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and degus. In this category, you'll find grain-free foods without ingredients like wheat, corn, or rice, and with an emphasis on fiber and plant-based components (e.g., herbs, grasses, leaves, and flowers). Important to note: this category is intended for herbivores. Granivores/omnivores (such as mice, (dwarf) hamsters, gerbils, and rats) have a different nutritional profile; grain-free is generally not a logical choice for them. Specialists since 2011, so you can choose with confidence and with help.
Grain-free is primarily a choice for herbivores. Complete the basic diet with daily hay and helpful hay and manger products.
When choosing your food, pay attention to fiber sources and a clear ingredient list. For added variety, you can supplement it with herbs (as enrichment, appropriate for your animal species).
For mice, hamsters, gerbils, and rats, "grain-free" isn't usually the best choice. Looking for food for these animals? Then check out our Food or all-in-one kibble & pellets .
What exactly does “grain-free” mean?
Grain-free means the food doesn't contain any grains (e.g., wheat, corn, or rice). Instead, the focus is often on fiber-rich plant ingredients like grasses, herbs, leaves, flowers, and (dried) vegetable components. Note: Grain-free isn't a "magical term"—always check the overall composition and whether the product is intended for your animal species.
Which animals is grain-free food mainly intended for?
This category is especially relevant for herbivorous rodents and rabbits:
- Rabbits – choose a rabbit variety and always combine with plenty of hay .
- Guinea pigs – choose a guinea pig variety; hay remains the basis of the daily routine.
- Chinchillas & Degus – choose species-specifically and keep extras simple; enrichment can be achieved with suitable herbs .
For granivores/omnivores such as mice, (dwarf) hamsters, gerbils, and rats, "grain-free" usually doesn't fit their usual diet. Therefore, in practice, grain-free is mainly found with herbivores and not as a standard line for those species.
Ingredients & fiber: what to look for when choosing?
Grain-free foods vary by brand and recipe. Here are some practical points to keep in mind:
- Fiber sources – grasses, herbs, hay/raw fiber components are often well suited to herbivores.
- Clear ingredients list – preferably choose a recipe that is transparent in composition.
- Feeding style – want more visible variety? Then also consider natural pellet-free food .
Tip: Want to quickly find everything about food? Go to Nutrition or directly to Feed .
Feeding & combining: how to make it complete
Always follow the instructions on the packaging (which vary by brand and animal species). For herbivores, the following generally applies: hay is the daily staple, and the chosen feed supplements/structures your routine.
- Manage your hay supply via hay and offer it neatly with products from hay & mangers .
- Use herbs/flowers as enrichment: herbs .
- Make feeding convenient with food bowls and provide fresh water via drinking bottles/water bowls .
Switching to a new food? It's best to do so gradually. For special situations, you'll find options under special food & force-feeding, and for young animals, under junior rodent food .
Maintenance & hygiene
- Daily : Check feeding areas, remove any leftovers, and change the water.
- Weekly : Clean food bowls and water points extra well.
- Store food in a dry, cool place and tightly sealed (this will keep it fresh for longer).
- Practical products can be found at: food bowls and drinking bottles & water bowls .
Checklist: grain-free food properly arranged
Check out this list for your grain-free choice:
✔ The food is intended for my animal species (rabbit/guinea pig/chinchilla/degu)
✔ I check the ingredient list and choose a recipe that suits herbivores
✔ Hay is arranged as a daily basis: hay
✔ I feed according to the guidelines on the packaging (portion & routine)
✔ I add enrichment that suits my animal, for example herbs
✔ When switching, I mix the food gradually (not all at once)
Safety warnings
- Only choose grain-free food if the product is explicitly intended for your herbivorous species.
- Grain-free is generally not a logical staple diet for mice, hamsters, gerbils, and rats; for these species, see Food .
- It is best to switch to a new food gradually (especially if your animal reacts sensitively to changes).
- Store food in a dry place and tightly sealed; do not use food that smells or looks different from normal.
- If you have any doubts about appetite, stool or condition, consult a veterinarian.
