Types of snacks: reward, nibble, foraging
1) Reward snacks (small & practical)
- Ideal for taming and training .
- Choose several small rewards rather than one big snack.
- Handy to combine with: Training & Foraging .
2) Snacks (being busy)
- For animals that like to gnaw and explore.
- Use as enrichment: offer at a “snack spot” or hide in a foraging corner.
3) Foraging snacks (search, smell, work)
- Sprinkle small pieces as search food or hide snacks in a sniffing mat/food puzzle.
- Make it more fun without a lot of extra calories: choose small, dose carefully.
Selection aid per animal species
- Rabbit snacks – give in moderation, choose mainly fiber/herb-rich foods
- Guinea pig snacks – small rewards and lots of variation in structure
- Hamster snacks – ideal for taming and foraging
- Rat snacks – smart rewards and food puzzles work great
- Gerbil snacks – nibbling + searching (use sparingly)
Are you unsure whether you're looking for a "treat" or enrichment? Then choose a snack that you can use as a search food (small pieces) or as a nibble (keeping busy). This way, you get more out of the same snack without giving too much too quickly.
How much can you give?
Snacks are always a treat . How much is appropriate depends on the animal's species, weight, activity level, and the rest of the diet. A simple guideline: small, sparing, and targeted .
- Reward: 1–3 small rewards per training/contact moment is often sufficient.
- Foraging: Use a small portion as a search food rather than one large snack in the food bowl.
- Solid foundation first: hay/main food in order, snacks later.
Checklist: How to choose the right JR Farm snack

Safety warnings (mild)
- Snacks are a treat : give in moderation, especially to animals that gain weight quickly.
- Introduce new snacks slowly (especially with sensitive animals).
