Hay as food for rodents: Hay should not only be a supplement for your rodent but the basis of their diet. Hay is the most important staple food for our rodents and should form the foundation of their nutrition.

A responsible pet owner will definitely provide a varied and diverse diet for their rodents, but will allocate the largest portion to hay. This should always be available in sufficient freshness and quantity so that the little rodents can help themselves at any time. Hay plays a significant role in maintaining the health of rodents.

One health aspect that makes a high proportion of hay in rodent feed desirable is the special digestive system of rodents. Their intestines always need activity to function well. The following food pushes the already present food residues in the intestines further along until final digestion and excretion occur. However, if nothing follows for an extended period, stagnation in the digestive tract can quickly occur. These digestive disturbances can be prevented by providing hay, as it should always be available to the rodents. This allows the animals to maintain their digestion independently.

Only hay can ensure continuous intestinal activity without rodents taking in too many nutrient-rich substances that ultimately lead to obesity. To avoid diminishing the little ones' appetite for hay, the owner should therefore be careful not to give them too much other dry food.
