A piece of natural bark to gnaw on. Rough, irregular and interesting for rabbits, guinea pigs and rodents. Read more.
Bark feels very different from smooth wood. It is rough, has grooves and comes off in little pieces. That is exactly what makes it so interesting for rabbits and rodents. This Esve piece of bark gives your pet something to pick at, gnaw on and sniff. It adds variety to the enclosure.
The teeth of rabbits and rodents keep growing all year round. Gnawing on natural material keeps them busy and supports natural wear. For hay eaters such as rabbits, guinea pigs and degus, unlimited hay remains the basis for healthy teeth. A piece of bark is a nice extra.
Bark also fits well in a naturally furnished enclosure. For hamsters, gerbils and mice you can half bury it in the bedding, creating a little hollow to crawl under. Rats like to use it as a step or lookout spot. For rabbits and guinea pigs, simply place it loose on the floor.
Boredom and a lack of chewing material can lead to abnormal behaviour, such as chewing the mesh. With a piece of bark your pet has something useful to do. Store it in a cool, dry place and always provide fresh drinking water.
This is not stated in the product information. It is a piece of natural bark, intended as chewing material for rabbits and rodents.
Yes, that is part of it. Bark crumbles as it is gnawed. Remove loose bits if they end up in the water bowl or food dish.
Half bury it in the bedding, lean it against a hideout or place it loose on the floor. Make sure it is stable and cannot tip over.
