For which animals?
JR Farm hay and herbs are primarily chosen for animals where fiber and plant-based variety are important, such as rabbits , guinea pigs , chinchillas , and degus . For smaller rodents, you can also sometimes use herbs as an enrichment/forage mix (in small quantities).
- Hay & Racks (hay, racks, holders)
- Herbs (herb mixes, botanicals)
- Snacks (small extras, in moderation)
- Play & Foraging (search food & activity)
Choice guide: hay or herbs?
Not sure where to start? Use this simple distinction:
- Start with hay if you are looking for a fiber-rich base that can be available all day (for herbivores).
- Choose herbs if you mainly want to add extra variety or make eating more fun (sprinkle, hide, forage).
- A combination often works best: plenty of hay + small portions of herbs as a supplement.
Checklist: the right choice in 30 seconds
- Goal? Base = hay. Variety/foraging = herbs.
- Animal species? Rabbit/guinea pig/chinchilla/degu: hay should be readily available, herbs should be added.
- Sensitive animal? Introduce herbs slowly and preferably one mix at a time.
- Practical feeding? Use a "daily ration": a small amount of herbs, unlimited hay.
Usage & routine
A good routine is usually simple:
- Hay: refill daily (preferably in a manger so it stays cleaner).
- Herbs: give in small portions and alternate (rotation often works better than everything at once).
- Foraging: Sprinkle a little bit of herbs through the hay or hide it in a foraging spot.
Storage & hygiene
- Store in a dry and airy place: this way, hay stays fresh and herbs retain their fragrance.
- Prevent moisture: moisture can reduce quality; preferably use a closed, dry storage location.
- Hay rack = cleaner: less trampling and less pollution in the enclosure.
Safety warnings (mild)
- Always introduce new herbs gradually , especially with sensitive animals.
- Check the hay for freshness and dust . If it's very dusty or smells musty, avoid using it.
- Herbs are a supplement : keep the basics (hay, water and suitable staple food) in order.
FAQ – JR Farm Hay & Herbs
Is JR Farm hay suitable as a base for rabbits and guinea pigs?
Yes, hay is generally a high-fiber source for herbivores. Make sure it's always readily available and replenished regularly.
How many herbs can I give?
Herbs are meant to be supplemental. Start with small portions and see how your pet reacts. Variations are welcome, but keep it manageable.
Can I mix herbs with hay?
Yes, that's actually a great way to encourage foraging. Sprinkle a little bit among the hay or hide it in a foraging area.
What if my pet leaves herbs behind?
That's okay. Choose one mix, feed less, and only switch after a while. Some animals need time to get used to new smells and textures.
