Treats for rodents - nibbling fun & healthy snacks

Buy treats for all kinds of rodents online

What's your favourite thing to give your favourite rodents? That's right! Treats! That's why you'll find treats for all kinds of rodents in our online shop. You can discover various flakes here, JR Farm also offers many tasty treats for small (and large) rodents. It is only natural that we want to spoil our pets. That's why we have created a separate category for these products. Treats for rodents. Of course, rodents can't eat chocolate. Yoghurt drops and the like are also simply not species-appropriate. We have therefore put together only the best for you and only products or treats that your rodent can tolerate and that are not (too) unhealthy. You should always be careful with dried fruit and vegetables, as they can quickly add up to too much on the scales. We would also like to point out that not all treats are suitable for dwarf hamsters due to the risk of diabetes. You should therefore avoid treats containing dried vegetables such as carrots or sweetcorn. Apples are also not suitable for a diabetes-friendly diet.

Treats are perfect for taming the animal

If you want to tame your small rodent, you basically can't do without treats. You can use various fresh foods, but also the dried versions that you can find in our shop. The advantages are clear:

• You can buy several treats directly in stock.
• If your hamster stores them, it doesn't matter, as they don't mould as quickly as completely fresh food.
• We focus on high-quality products. In our shop you will therefore only find treats from natural production. Without questionable additives or by-products!
• The naturalness factor is also important to us. We use dried fruit and vegetables, nuts, seeds and insects. It always depends on which rodent you are buying for.

Always feed treats in moderation

There are food products such as nettle or dandelion, of which most rodents only eat as much as they need anyway, and then there are particularly energy-rich products. Pea flakes or maize, for example, should only be fed in moderation. Even for larger animals such as guinea pigs, rabbits and hares, they should remain a speciality. Otherwise the small four-legged friends run the risk of quickly becoming overweight!

Tip: Use airtight tins for storage! Corn kernels can be separated from the cob and then stored in the same way. This effectively prevents food mites and food moths.

Treats for hamsters

Taming diaries on YouTube, Instagram and the like have already done a lot to make us all want to give our hamsters treats to gain their trust. Bribery in this sense. This also works really well with golden hamsters with tasty treats such as apple flakes, carrot flakes or even tomato flakes. Whole corn cobs and the JR Farmys that we have in our carrot and fennel and herb garden or the JR Farm marigold or sunflower are also very popular. The latter two are also suitable for dwarf hamsters. Whole sunflowers are also suitable, i.e. the heads. This way your pet can work a little harder for its food. But here too, sunflower seeds contain a lot of fat, so you should not leave them completely in the enclosure, but rather put them in sporadically.

Snacks for gerbils and degus

Admittedly, it's not that much different for gerbils, coloured mice and degus. They are also crazy about the treats listed above, so there is nothing to stop them from really spoiling your pets. Of course, you should also make sure that the diet of these species is as balanced and varied as possible. Treats are not a staple food, so you should take a look at our staple food category. Whole corn on the cob is of course an excellent snack, but there is a risk that your rodents will put a little too much weight on their ribs. It's the quantity that counts, just like with us humans. However, you can feed the desired amount of nettles, daisies and dandelions from JR Farm without any problems.

Treats for rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas

Of course we also have treats for rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas! The flakes are generally just as popular, but are usually a little small for these animals. We therefore recommend using the JR Farm rodent vegetables or the JR Farm corn on the cob. Also very popular with rabbits, guinea pigs and chinchillas are JR Farm nettles, JR Farm daisies and JR Farm dandelions. Our own mix "Getzoo vegetable garden" and the "Getzoo herb garden" are also great treats for rabbits and co. Take a look at the two products, there are lots of great herbs, flowers and other goodies included.
