Hay

Hay is the most important part of a rabbit’s daily diet. It is rich in fibre and supports healthy digestion, proper gut function and the natural wearing down of teeth. In this category, you’ll find high-quality, fibre-rich hay for rabbits, carefully selected by us for optimal health and taste..

Our range includes different types of hay for rabbits, such as low-calcium hay including timothy hay and orchard grass, as well as herbal hay from natural meadows personally selected by us in Belgium and Germany. Each type of hay has its own structure, scent, and nutritional value. Variety in hay is important, as different smells and textures encourage rabbits to eat more hay. This not only improves digestion and dental health but also helps prevent boredom, as your rabbit spends more time eating and exploring. This way, you support a content rabbit that feels good, stays active, and can express natural behaviour.

Hay should make up the largest part of a rabbit’s diet (around 80%). As a guideline, you can count on an average of at least 55 grams of hay per kilogram of body weight per day, supplemented with (dried) herbs, vegetables, and possibly a limited amount of pellets. Offering unlimited fresh hay or grass is essential for proper gut function and the natural wearing down of teeth. Rabbits that eat enough hay stay more active and are less likely to develop dental or digestive problems.

At Happy Rabbits and Friends, you’ll find the right hay for a healthy, active, and happy rabbit life. High quality and a wide assortment allow you to vary regularly, which only benefits your rabbit’s interest, stimulation, and overall wellbeing.
