Supreme Petfoods Science Selective Timothy Hay 2kg, natural

Product Information

As it tastes great, our Timothy hay helps encourage your rabbit or guinea pig to forage through the stems and leaves and have a good chew or even play. As that’s a way for them to express their natural behaviour, it also helps to keep them happy too.

The ingredient formula for this food includes a natural prebiotic, which helps promote digestive health in your rabbit. It’s also bolstered with vitamins and minerals. These added nutrients encourage healthier eyes and skin and a glossy, healthy coat. There are also natural antioxidants that help to improve the immune system. Science Selective Timothy Hay is superior to other hay available. There are no less than six processes involved to retain the finest quality, so that the tasty long stems remain intact and are bursting with all the nutrients that small pets love. The base of the mixture is Timothy Hay, which is a great source of fibre. It also includes dandelion, which helps maintain urinary tract health, and marigold, which helps strengthen the immune system. The one-kilogram bag of hay is compressed and expands as much as eight times its compressed size. Pellets are such s tiny part of the diet (just one tablespoon a day) but overfeeding pellets and not filtering their drinking water is where they get most of their calcium from so it’s best to watch the quantity of pellets you feed and filter water to control their calcium intake. Choosing a low calcium pellet can help.Along with the essential vitamins and minerals, the nuggets have amino acids, linseed and spinach. The nuggets combine ingredients into a single component, which prevents young rabbits from developing the habit of selective feeding. Along with young rabbits, this food is also suitable for dogs that are either pregnant or lactating.

When it comes to deciding what to feed rabbits, hay is absolutely essential. It is a daily essential for all small herbivores – rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus. Rabbits need hay every day to provide them with enough fibre. Science Selective Timothy hay is a good all-around choice for unlimited offering to your rabbit. Timothy hay is a mix of leaves and stems from Timothy grass, which is a perennial bunch of grass. Selective Naturals FibaFirst combines long chain fibre with essential vitamins and minerals to create a unique diet that caters for the natural feeding behaviour of rabbits. FibaFirst is rich in natural ingredients and is made in a simple and uncomplicated way. By feeding hay you will help to keep your rabbit’s digestive system working properly and their teeth in great shape – rabbits have to chew to keep their constantly growing teeth healthy and even. Harrington’s are sunflower extract based, with wheatfeed a second ingredient and grass as a third ingredient. The average rabbit (weighing 2.5kg) will require 75g of Fibafirst per day (30g of food per kg of body weight per day), although because Fibafirst has a nutritional profile that is similar to hay, it may be fed freely, however weight should be monitored regularly. We would recommend feeding your rabbit their pet food twice a day – once in the morning and again in the evening. A small handful of suitable fresh vegetables should also be provided along with good quality hay and clean drinking water.And don’t forget fresh hay and water! Your rabbits should have an unlimited supply of both at all times. Correctly balanced calcium: phosphorus to help support strong bone development – Calcium 0.8%, Phosphorus 0.5% The second most prominent part of their diet should be fresh greens and vegetables. “Leafy greens are all great,” explained one long-time rabbit owner we spoke to. “Things like fruits and even carrots are good but only in moderation, and avoid anything with seeds or pits.”

It’s always reassuring to know where your food comes from, and even better when it’s from a local source. Now, you can be equally reassured about your rabbits’ food. Supreme Selective provides high-quality Timothy Hay and grasses grown here in the UK.The haylage is carefully collected into large square bales ready to be machine-dried – this process helps to retain the very best nutrients and appealing, natural colour that can otherwise be lost when the hay is dried (and bleached), by the sun’s UV rays.

There are different types of hay and pellet bases available, but they’re not all equal in nutritional value. For example, alfalfa-based pellets have higher calories and lower fibre content. Instead, look for Timothy Hay, which has a healthy dose of the nutrients rabbits need. An adult rabbit has done its growing, but it still has dietary needs to maintain optimal health. These nuggets are an ideal balance of both digestible and indigestible fibre. The former provides your rabbits with essential nutrients, while the latter helps both with digestion and grinding down teeth.

Selective Timothy Hay comes from the first cut of the year, fresh from the fields. It’s harvested from carefully chosen Timothy grass that produces the largest, tastiest seed heads and is one of the best hays to feed rabbits.
