Elongated feeder made of natural bamboo, 30 to 35 cm. Gives several animals room to eat or search for treats at the same time. Read more.
Bamboo is a natural product and no two stems are exactly the same. That is why this Bamboo Feeder from the Esve Mix & Play range is 30 to 35 cm long. The elongated shape is practical if you keep several animals. They can eat side by side instead of crowding around one small bowl.
Group animals such as rats, guinea pigs, degus and gerbils benefit from enough feeding space. Too little room at the food dish can lead to squabbles or to one animal always coming last. Place the feeder on a flat spot on the floor and spread the food or treats along its full length.
You can also use it as a foraging game. Scatter dried herbs or a few treats in the bamboo and lay some hay on top. Your pets then have to sniff and search, which matches their natural behaviour. Gnawing on the edge of the bamboo is normal. Replace the feeder when it has been chewed too far or develops sharp edges.
Bamboo is a natural product. Every stem grows differently, so the length varies per piece within this range.
Yes, the elongated shape is handy for a small group of guinea pigs. Make sure it lies stable and cannot tip.
You can lay some hay on top for a foraging game. For the daily hay supply, use a hay rack so the hay stays clean and dry.
Wipe or brush it out regularly and keep it dry. Throw away dirty or wet food immediately.
