Collection: Rodent food

Caring for domestic rodents such as guinea pigs, rabbits or hamsters starts with a balanced diet. Rodent food must provide the right nutrients to keep their digestive system in optimal condition, as well as strengthen their teeth and immune system. Choosing a feed specifically formulated for them is essential to ensure a long and healthy life.

What essential nutrients should be present in rodent food?

Rodents need a diet rich in natural fiber, which supports intestinal transit and prevents common digestive problems such as constipation or diarrhea. Ingredients such as hay, alfalfa or dried herbs are fundamental in the food, as they help maintain an active and healthy digestive system. Additionally, fiber helps with dental wear, which is essential for species like rabbits or guinea pigs, whose teeth grow continuously.

It is also important that the food contains essential vitamins and minerals such as vitamin C (especially for guinea pigs), calcium, phosphorus and zinc. These nutrients support bone development, strengthen the immune system and provide vitality. A good mix of plant ingredients, without added sugars or refined grains, is also key to preventing overweight and promoting a more natural and balanced diet.

How to choose the best food for your rodent’s health and longevity?

Choosing good food starts with checking the ingredients: the more natural and species-specific, the better. Products formulated without grains or animal by-products are ideal, as they suit rodents' digestive systems and reduce the risk of allergies or intolerances. Furthermore, feeds that clearly state their composition allow you to better control what your pet is eating.

Another important aspect is that rodent food should have veterinary certifications or be recommended by animal nutrition specialists. A quality rodent food must be adapted to every stage of their life, from growth to maturity, and take into account the specific needs of each species. This not only improves their daily well-being, but can also prevent diseases in the long term, contributing to a longer and healthier life.

Is it advisable to complement rodent food with other foods?

Yes, although rodent food should be the base of their diet, it is advisable to supplement with fresh foods in small quantities. Vegetables such as carrot, zucchini or bell pepper can be a good source of hydration and micronutrients. Some fruits may also be offered, although very occasionally due to their sugar content. New foods should always be introduced gradually while observing any reactions.

Likewise, including natural snacks such as apple branches or edible wooden toys can help with dental wear and environmental enrichment. However, these extras should never replace regular feed portions. The key is to maintain a complete, varied diet tailored to the type of rodent living with you, avoiding excess and always ensuring access to clean, fresh water.
