Burgess Excel Forage & Feast Bar – Hay Treat Bar (60g)
A pressed bar of timothy hay with real flowers. Hangs in the hutch and gives your rabbit or guinea pig something to work at — foraging is a need, not a luxury.
Boredom is a welfare problem
In the wild a rabbit spends most of its waking hours foraging. In a hutch there is nothing to forage for, and bored rabbits chew hutch bars, pull their own fur, and become withdrawn. A hay bar gives them something to work at — it takes time to strip down, and the effort is the point.
What it is
- Pressed timothy hay — the same fibre they should be eating anyway, just in a form they have to work for
- Topped with real edible flowers (cornflower, marigold or rose)
- No added sugar — unlike most “treat” sticks, which are held together with honey or molasses
- Suitable for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus
How to use it
Hang it in the enclosure or simply put it on the floor. Because it is hay rather than sugar, you don’t need to ration it the way you would a seed stick — but one bar between two rabbits, a couple of times a week, is a sensible rhythm.
Why you won’t find this at the big chains
Burgess and bunnyNature are distributed in Australia exclusively to independent specialist retailers — the large chains cannot stock them. If you’ve been buying your rabbit’s food from a big-box pet store, this is a genuine step up, and this is one of the few places in Australia you can get it.
