Zooply Bosweide (Forest Meadow) is natural alpine hay with leaves for rabbits and guinea pigs. This fragrant hay, fresh from the land, contains a tasty mix of lime leaf, strawberry leaf, apricot leaf, nettle leaf, plantain and apple leaf. This provides not only an important base for the daily menu, but also extra variety in smell, taste and texture. Good hay for rabbits and guinea pigs is essential in their daily diet and contributes to a varied diet.
Many rabbits and guinea pigs love hay that smells fresh and has a nice texture. The addition of leaves makes feeding time extra appealing and fits well with natural foraging behaviour. Rabbits and guinea pigs enjoy searching, pulling and nibbling in their hay. This way you offer not only an important base of the menu, but also extra enrichment in their environment.
What makes this packaging extra pleasant is that the hay is loose in the bag and not compressed. This makes it easy to take out of the pack and keeps the natural texture well preserved. That makes feeding a lot easier. This hay is also dust-free, which makes for a clean, pleasant product to use.
Hay should be available unlimited for rabbits and guinea pigs. It's an essential part of their daily diet. Hay naturally contains a lot of fibre and other nutrients. Fibre supports digestion and helps keep the gut moving well. Good gut function is important for small pets, so hay should never be missing from the enclosure.
It's best to offer hay in a hay rack. This keeps it clean and fresh. When animals walk over the hay, they often like it less. And if they do eat it, it can get dirty faster. So make sure your rabbit or guinea pig can reach it easily.
Store the product dry and cool, so smell, quality and texture are well preserved. This keeps Zooply Bosweide (Forest Meadow) pleasant to use for longer.
Hay should be available unlimited, all day long. A useful rule of thumb is that a rabbit eats roughly an amount of hay equal to its own body size; for a 2 kg rabbit that comes down to about 150 to 200 grams per day. Refresh the hay a few times a day with a fresh handful, even if the rack isn't completely empty yet.
Variety is best for your pet's gut health: the more variation in hay types, the wider the mix of fibre, herbs and grasses it gets. A schedule that works well in practice: 3 days Austrian alpine hay, 3 days German herb hay and 1 day meadow hay. This way you combine the premium softness of alpine hay, the tooth-wearing strength of herb hay, and meadow hay as a sturdy addition. Prefer to keep it simple? A mix of alpine hay and German herb hay is already a great combination.
No, that's not necessary with bosweide (forest meadow) — it already has a varied mix of leaves mixed in, so this hay is already extra tasty and appealing on its own. Want even more variety anyway? Then alternate with one of the other hay types in the range.
Zooply stands for quality. We specialise in herbs and treats — precisely the areas where things most often go wrong for many pets. That's why our range is deliberately small per product group: we only offer the best option, nothing less. And we use it ourselves, every day, with our own animals.
