Herb mixes are a fun, natural way to add variety to your rodent or rabbit's diet. You can use them as a topping for hay, as foraging material, or as a small supplement to their daily food. The amount and frequency of feeding depends heavily on the species: herbivores (such as rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and degus) often use herbs differently than omnivores (such as hamsters, gerbils, mice, and rats). In this category, you'll find carefully selected herb mixes that are practical to use and compatible with natural behaviors (foraging, selecting, nibbling). Specialists since 2011, so you can choose with confidence and with help.
Sprinkle a small amount through hay or over feed and you'll instantly enhance the scent, texture, and "search" experience. It's ideal in combination with hay .
Herb mixes are perfect for hiding, sprinkling, or mixing in foraging areas. Also check out Play & Forage for additional "search opportunities."
Herbivores often choose differently than omnivores. Would you rather combine individual parts? Then also check out dried flowers and dried leaves .
What exactly are spice mixes?
A herb mix is a blend of dried plant parts, such as flowers, leaves, stems , and/or herbs . These mixes are intended to supplement and enrich the food: adding aroma, texture, and, above all, encouraging more activity. Want to see all the herb categories? Go to: Herbs for Rodents & Rabbits .
Which animals are herbal mixes suitable for?
Herb mixes can be a nice addition for many species, but the choice and amount depend on the type of animal:
- Herbivores (rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, degus): often nice as a variation through hay or as a bedding mix in foraging areas.
- Omnivores (hamsters, gerbils, mice, rats): usually as a small supplement or enrichment, not as a “base”.
Prefer to choose individual components by type? Then also check out: dried herbs & roots , dried branches & stems , and herb pellets .
How do you use herbal mixes in practice?
With these methods you can make it fun and organized right away:
- Through the hay – sprinkle a small amount through the hay to encourage your animal to search more actively.
- Foraging – hide small tufts of food in a sniffing area or sprinkle it in a food toy (more ideas at Play & Foraging ).
- As a topping – a little over the daily food (especially useful for fussy eaters who like to “select”).
Tip: Keep it small and observe what your pet likes. This way, it remains a fun addition to their routine.
Selection guide: how to choose a herb mix
With these points you can quickly choose a mix that suits your animal and goal:
- Animal species first – herbivores often prefer flower/leaf-rich mixes; omnivores are usually more frugal.
- Goal – Are you primarily looking for fragrance/variety? Choose flower or leaf mixes. Want more "searching"? Choose a coarser mix with stems/branches.
- Texture – fine and soft (flowers/leaves) or coarser (stems/branches) for more activity.
Want to combine them yourself instead of a mix? Start with: flowers + leaves + stems/branches (if desired).
Storage & freshness: how to keep your herb mix looking good
Herbs stay fresh best when stored dry, dark, and tightly sealed . We select our range with an eye for quality and storage, ensuring optimal preservation of aroma and texture.
Maintenance & hygiene
- Work cleanly : scoop herbs with a dry spoon/scoop (do not use wet hands).
- Store in a dry, dark place : this will help the mix retain its aroma and texture for longer.
- Remove old bits : If you're using herb mix as a sprinkler, regularly remove the "old bits."
- Keeping your hay area tidy : adding herbs to your hay works best if you also keep your hay area fresh (see Hay & Hay Racks ).
Checklist: Using herbal mixes wisely
Before you start, please review this list:
✔ I choose a mix that suits my animal species
✔ I use herbal mixes as a supplement/enrichment (not as a base)
✔ I combine it cleverly with hay (especially with herbivores)
✔ I create “search moments” with Play & Foraging
✔ I store the mix in a dry, dark and closed place
✔ I observe what my animal likes (structure/quantity) and adjust accordingly
Safety warnings
- Provide herbal mixes as a supplement to a menu; a good basic diet remains important (see Nutrition ).
- Introduce new mixes gradually , especially for sensitive eaters.
- Store spice mixes in a dry place and do not use any product that smells distinctly musty or feels damp.
- Be extra careful with animals that quickly “select”: it is better to sprinkle it through hay or use it as forage material in small portions.
- Do you suddenly notice a decrease in appetite, unusual stool, or a noticeable change in behavior? If in doubt, consult a veterinarian.
FAQ – Frequently asked questions about herb mixes
How often can I give a herbal mix?
That depends on the animal species, the basic feed, and the mix. Use it primarily as a supplement: a little mixed with hay, as a topping, or as forage, and see what your animal prefers.
What is the difference between a herb mix and loose herbs?
A mix is composed for variety and convenience. Individual herbs allow for highly targeted combinations. See the individual components under dried herbs & roots , flowers , and leaves .
Can I mix herb mixes with hay?
Yes, that's a great way to encourage searching and selecting. Start with a small amount and use good hay as a base.
Are herbal mixes also suitable for hamsters, gerbils, mice and rats?
Often as a supplement/enrichment, but generally in smaller quantities than for herbivores. Choose a mix with a suitable texture and use it primarily as a "snack/search moment."
Where can I find all the herb categories together?
