Small Pet Select really advocates for lots of diet variety. But, that variety has to be the right stuff. And we love nettle for diet variety. Nettle is a favorite rabbit herb and guinea pig herb.

Nettle is high in protein, with a good calcium-phosphorus ratio, and contains a lot of silica (the thing in greens that helps keep teeth ground down). It’s also a great  a source of iron and vitamins, which makes it a terrific all-around healthy forage for rabbits and guinea pigs.

That’s a lot of good stuff packed into one herb! Your rabbits and guinea pigs might not care about all of those benefits, but we sure do.

Adding nettle as a forage atreat keeps your animal from becoming bored. So try it out! Your small pet will go gaga.

Violet W. ★★★★★

My rabbits go absolutely crazy for these leaves—they dive into their bowl and don’t stop until every piece is gone. The leaves are still green and smell fresh, which tells me the quality is solid for adding variety to their daily greens.

The bag arrived sealed tight and the leaves still smell fresh and green, which tells me it wasn't sitting on a shelf forever. I sprinkle it over my guinea pigs' regular pellets a few times a week and they pick out every last piece before touching the rest. Good way to add variety without upsetting t

My rabbits go absolutely crazy for this nettle — it's the first thing they dig for in their bowl. The leaves are crisp and green, not dusty or crushed to powder like other bags I've tried, and it gives them a nice variety from their usual hay.
