You can easily and quickly order gnawing material for rodents and rabbits at DRD Rodent Shop ®
Rodents and rabbits naturally have a need to nibble and gnaw. That's why good gnawing material is more than just "something fun": it provides activity, supports natural behavior, and adds extra enrichment to the habitat. At DRD Rodent Shop® (specialist since 2011), you'll find a wide range: from gnawing wood and carrots/sticks to Veggie Bites, foraging toys, chewing rolls/mats, and (where appropriate) clay/lava-like chewing stones.
Gnawing = being busy, discovering and foraging.
Wood, roots, fiber products and edible nibbles.
From hamsters to rabbits: choose according to behavior and strength.
Clear information, fast delivery from our own stock.
What will you find here?
- Natural gnawing wood & branches (including willow, apple, hazelnut, birch, coffeewood): pure nibbling material for the enclosure.
- Roots & sticks (e.g. dandelion root, parsnip/fennel/dill sticks): firm nibbles with extra "structure".
- Edible gnawing toys (such as Veggie Bites and gnawing wood with vegetables/herbs): fun to gnaw on and to hide.
- Foraging gnawing products (tree trunk tunnels/foraging items): combine gnawing with searching and puzzling.
- Nibble rolls, mats & fibre products : ideal for extra activity and "demolition/nibbling fun".
- Mineral nibbles (such as clay/lava-like stones): for animals that enjoy playing with these (always use appropriately).
For which animals is gnawing material suitable?
In principle for almost all rodents and rabbits, but choose according to species:
- Hamsters: Choose compact pieces, preferably without sticky layers; hide small nibbles for foraging fun.
- Gerbils, chinchillas, and degus are often avid rodents; choose sturdy wood and durable items.
- Mice & rats: variation works well (wood + foraging/gnawing toys).
- Guinea pigs & rabbits: chewing wood and safe gnawing items as enrichment in addition to their daily routine.
Tip: also link to your animal species pages for more targeted choices: Hamster , Gerbil , Rat , Guinea Pig , Rabbit .
Checklist: how to choose the right gnawing material
- Goal: pure gnawing (wood/root) or gnawing + puzzling (foraging items).
- Durability: For avid rodents? Choose a harder/more durable material.
- Size: appropriate to the size of the animal (too small = quickly used up, too large = less interesting).
- Ingredients: Edible gnawing products are a supplement; check the ingredients and feed in moderation.
- Safe use: do not leave any wet or moldy material lying around.
Use: this is how you make gnawing extra fun
- Place gnawing wood scattered around the enclosure (not all in one place).
- Hide small nibbles under ground cover or in a foraging corner.
- Alternate between wood, roots/sticks, and a foraging item for new stimuli.
- Observe : some animals gnaw fanatically, others only occasionally – both are normal.
Hygiene & maintenance
- Got wet? Remove it (prevents mold and unpleasant odors).
- Dirty from urine/moisture? Replacing it is usually the best option.
- Wood doesn't have to be removed every time it's cleaned: if it stays dry and clean, it can often last longer.
- Edible gnawing products : give smaller portions and refresh on time.
Safety (mild but important)
- Do not use "random" wood from outside: it may be contaminated (pesticides/exhaust fumes/parasites) or come from an unsuitable type of wood.
- Check for splinters and loose parts , especially in intensive rodents.
- Edible gnawing items: are a supplement; provide in moderation within the total diet.
- Not sure? Choose a simpler piece of gnawing wood or contact us for advice.
FAQ Rodent material
My pet hardly chews, is that bad?
Not necessarily. Some animals gnaw intensively, others only occasionally. The most important thing is that there's always something suitable available.
What is the difference between gnawing wood and edible gnawing toys?
Gnawing wood is primarily "pure gnawing." Edible gnawing toys combine gnawing with flavors/ingredients and are therefore more of a supplement.
How often should I replace gnawing material?
Replace it as soon as it gets wet, dirty, or falls apart. Dry, clean wood can often last longer.
