Why choose JR Farm Tiny Treats Grasshopper Mix?

For omnivores and other mixed-feeding rodents, a snack should offer some variety. This mix combines plant-based ingredients with insects, making it a better fit for animals that can eat animal protein alongside seeds, grains, and vegetables. The whole grasshoppers give this snack a unique character, while cornflower blossoms and carrots provide extra variation in texture and aroma.

What makes these Tiny Treats extra fun is that you can easily turn them into enrichment. Sprinkle a little bit through the bedding, hide some in tunnels, or use them in a foraging toy. Especially in hamsterscaping and gerbilscaping, this is a great way to stimulate natural searching and foraging behavior.

For which animals is this snack suitable?

Omnivores and mixed-feeding rodents

This snack is suitable for mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils, and dwarf rats. Due to the combination of plant-based ingredients and insects, it works well as a small treat for animals that can also eat animal protein. However, give in moderation, as it remains a supplementary snack.

Rats

This is also a suitable snack for rats. It is best to give the mix in small quantities as a reward or as a varied treat alongside a good basic food. Due to its loose structure, it is also convenient to use as a foraging snack.

Herbivores such as guinea pigs and rabbits

This snack is less suitable for guinea pigs and rabbits. These animals are herbivores and benefit most from a fiber-rich, plant-based diet. A snack based on hay, herbs, or leaves is a better fit.

Herbivores such as chinchillas and degus

This snack is also less suitable for chinchillas and degus. For these herbivores, you would prefer a milder, fiber-rich, and completely plant-based snack that better matches their natural diet.

Feeding & use

Give this mix as a snack alongside a suitable basic food. A small amount at a time is sufficient. Adjust the quantity to the animal, the main food, and any other treats you provide. If you also want to use the snack as enrichment, distribute a small portion across multiple spots in the enclosure. This will keep your animal happily occupied with searching, sniffing, and collecting.
