This delicious Timothy Hay imported from Germany is tasty and healthy hay for your rabbit, guinea pig, chinchilla or rodent. The hay, made from the German Timothy, is packed completely by hand.

The hay contains a low calcium content, which can have a positive effect on animals with bladder problems. In addition, it has a high content of crude fibre and is good for digestion. Because of a long chewing time, the hay stimulates the natural wear of the teeth.

In principle, the hay can be given indefinitely, but as a guideline you can stick to: rabbits about two handfuls of hay a day, guinea pigs one handful, degus and chinchillas about half a handful a day.

 

Properties:
  • German Timothy hay
  • Low calcium, can help with bladder problems
  • High content of crude fibre
  • Long chewing time for natural tooth wear
  • Hand packed
Analytical Constituents:
Crude protein 5%, Crude fibre 30%.


Hay produced in South Africa are traditionally sun-dried whilst leading hay manufacturers such as Bunny Nature in Germany are using the latest developments in technology to produce high quality feeding hay.

Why is Bunny Nature hay machine-dried indoors?

Using a gentle machine drying process that is Co2 neutral to produce hay provides a range of advantages:
  • The harvesting process is less dependent on the weather, and therefore easier to plan.
  • More of the nutrients remain preserved in the hay which therefore requires you to feed less to provide ideal maintenance. This is a considerable cost advantage of machine-dried hay.
  • The animals are also healthier, the vet bills lower.
  • The quality of the hay is clear to be seen: even after drying, it preserves a colour and smell that makes it seem freshly mown. This also attests to the hay’s nutritional value: 5% more protein content and lower in sugars.
 

Please find below a simple guideline to help pet owners understand the high levels of beneficial fibre required by rabbits. 
 
1. High Quality Feeding Hay
 
High-quality, feeding hay should make up 85-90% of your rabbit's diet. You should make sure it is freely available and replaced with fresh hay every day. Bunny Nature timothy and meadow hay from Germany provides the highest quality by offering a wide variety of plants such as timothy grass, meadow fescue, meadow foxtail, ryegrass, red fescue, bluegrass, bentgrass, cocksfoot, creeping red fescue, german ryegrass, dandelion, silverweed, chickweed, yarrow, ribwort, white clover, red clover, birdsfood trefoil. This hay provides maximum taste and nutrients to rabbits through its diversity of plants. It is rich in fibres, crunchy & dust-free.

2. Bunny Nature Trimellos®

These Trimellos® are made with 42 different plants from natural meadows, just as nature intended. This food does not contain any added preservatives, flavour enhancers, added sugar, colouring or flavouring.

Bunny Nature, a dedicated brand for small mammals!
 
Bunny Nature is a family owned business in Germany that is founded with love for animals. Their goal, which they continue to pursue to this day, is to produce optimal and healthy food for small mammals, which is perfectly tailored to the animals' original living environment and needs. 

This company works closely with leading veterinarians specialized in rodents and integrates scientific research into the production of rodent food and accessories. Bunny Nature was one of the first manufacturers to develop a low-sugar diet for small rodents, which minimizes the risk of diabetes.
 
The CEO of Bunny Nature says: "When developing and producing animal-friendly food, we always put the animals first. We look at where they come from, what they eat there, what their social behavior and eating behavior look like. It is not only important to provide that information and understand their nutritional needs, but it is also essential to apply this knowledge consistently when choosing the right food. That makes all the difference."
