Category: HERBS AND HERBAL BLENDS
多樣性對小動物飲食非常重要。兔子和天竺鼠是天生的覓食者。牠們不只吃一種草、花、草本植物或樹皮。牠們會吃一點這個、一點那個。（當然，取決於季節性的供應。）沒有飲食多樣性，牠們可能會缺乏微量礦物質和其他營養成分。Small Pet Select 的 Young at Heart 草本混合提供牠們所需的品種，以模仿自然覓食。
這個小動物草本混合是由全食物製成。全食物 = 仍處於自然狀態且具有生物可利用性的食物。它仍然是原來的樣子。沒有從原始植物中取出任何東西。含有維生素C的漿果是全食物。葉子是全食物。
全食物以身體需要和理解的方式提供維生素、礦物質、酵素、胺基酸、脂肪酸和其他微量營養素。
兔子和天竺鼠的牙齒也需要多樣化的食物。牠們需要咬、咀嚼和嘎吱作響。牠們需要拉扯樹皮和樹枝。如果牠們沒有機會做這些事情，口腔健康可能會惡化，牙齒問題也會出現。
My guinea pig used to turn her nose up at plain hay, but she digs through this blend for the dried flowers every time. It's a nice mix of herbs and bark pieces, way more variety than the single-grass bags I was buying before.
The dried flowers and herbs hold their color and smell fresh the moment I open the bag, and my rabbit actually picks out the different bits one by one like a little connoisseur. It's clearly more than just plain hay, and I feel better knowing she's getting that natural foraging variety every day.
My guinea pigs dive into their bowl the minute I scatter this blend in—the mix of different leaves and stems keeps them foraging for ages instead of picking out one thing and ignoring the rest. It's a nice way to add variety without me having to source a dozen separate bags.
