Product overview

The Trixie Hay Bale with Flowermix 200g is a natural, grain‑free forage treat for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, degus and other small animals. Made from tightly compressed meadow hay and topped with a colourful mix of edible flowers, it encourages natural foraging, chewing and exploration.

The bale can be hung using the attached natural cord or placed directly in the enclosure, offering both a boredom‑busting activity and a tasty, fibre‑rich snack. Its compact size makes it ideal for most small animal habitats while still providing plenty of nibbling enjoyment.

Frequently asked questions

Is this suitable for young rabbits and guinea pigs? Yes, it can be offered in small amounts. Young animals should still receive unlimited hay and an age‑appropriate pellet as their main diet, with this bale used as an occasional enrichment treat.

Can I leave the bale in the enclosure all the time? You can leave it in as a foraging and chewing item, but monitor how quickly your pet eats it. If they consume it very fast or gain excess weight, limit access and offer it for shorter periods.

Does it contain grains or added sugar? No, the bale is based on hay and edible flowers and is grain‑free with no added sugars.

Will this help with my pet’s teeth? Chewing on the compressed hay can support natural tooth wear, which is important for rabbits and rodents. It should be used alongside a diet rich in long‑fibre hay.

Is the cord safe? The cord is natural, but it is still best to supervise. If your pet starts to chew and swallow the cord, remove it and offer the bale without hanging it.

How long will it last? This depends on the size and chewing habits of your pet. Some animals will nibble slowly over several days, while enthusiastic chewers may get through it more quickly.
