Twelve bamboo rings to gnaw on, carry around and play with. Simple, natural enrichment for rodents. Read more.
Sometimes the simplest toy is the most fun. These Bamboo Rings from the Esve Mix & Play range are twelve rings made of bamboo. Rodents pick them up, drag them around, gnaw on them and hide them. With twelve in a pack you can spread them across the enclosure or keep a few aside to swap in later.
The teeth of rodents keep growing for life. Gnawing keeps them busy and supports natural wear. Bamboo is a nice change from willow or lime chew wood, because it feels different. For guinea pigs and degus, unlimited hay remains the most important basis for the teeth. The rings are an extra activity.
Fun ideas: tuck a few rings into the hay in the hay rack, so your pet pulls them out while eating. Hide some under the bedding for hamsters and gerbils. For rats, put them in a box with shredded paper so they have to search. Remove rings that have become wet or dirty, and replace them once they are gnawed up.
The size of the rings is not listed in the product information. Check on arrival whether the size suits your pet.
Start with a few at a time and keep the rest dry. Offering new rings now and then keeps the toy interesting.
Yes, guinea pigs like to gnaw on natural material. Do make sure they always have unlimited hay as well.
