Details:
Variety is so important in small animal diets. Rabbits and guinea pigs, are natural foragers. They don’t eat only one type of grass, flower, herb or bark. They eat a little bit of this and a little bit of that. (Depending on what’s seasonally available, of course.) Without diet variety, they can suffer a lack of trace minerals and other nutritional components. Small Pet Select’s Zen Tranquility herbal blend provides the variety they need to mimic forage.
This small animal herbal blend is made of whole foods. A whole food = something to eat that’s still in its natural state, and is bioavailable. It’s still what it ever was. Nothing is taken out of the original plant. A berry that has vitamin C is a whole food. A leaf is a whole food.
A whole food gives vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, fatty acids, and other micronutrients in a way the body needs them and understands them.
Rabbit and guinea pig teeth also require a variety of foods. They need to bite, and chew, and crunch. They need to pull at bark and twigs. If they don’t get a chance to do all those things, mouth health can deteriorate and tooth problems crop up.
Ingredients:
Chamomile, Lavender, Lemon Balm, Red Clover Flower, Rose Petals, Comfrey, Kava Kava Root Powder, Borage, Skullcap, Valerian Powder
Feeding Instructions:
Any new food, snack or supplement should be introduced patiently. Once your animal accepts the mix, Zen Tranquility herbal blend can be fed daily, up to 3 tablespoons per 10 lbs. of body weight.
The first few days they may not touch it at all. Avoid putting their new snacks or supplements on top of greens, pellets, or mixing in to hay at first. (We don’t want them to stop eating the things they already trust because this new stuff is all over it.) Make a fuss about the new stuff, tell them how good it is. Do a little snack dance. They’ll get the idea, and work up their confidence, and one day they’ll try it. After that, there will be no looking back. They will run up to you when they hear the bag, and look forward to their herbs and flowers with great anticipation.
