Let's take a look at the culinary preferences of our little furry friends. Gerbils are not only picky, but also health conscious. They mainly like seeds, plant parts and animal proteins. But let's focus on those tasty herbs and seeds they love to devour.

When it comes to seeds, Gerbils are true "granivores". This means that they are seed eaters and love nothing more than a crunchy bite. In their home countries the choice is limited, but fortunately here we have an abundance of seeds to choose from. Our carefully selected seeds are not only suitable for Gerbils, but also super healthy! They are packed with essential oils and fats that provide a shiny coat, radiant skin and even functioning Gerbil brain power. Give them some seeds and they will become true geniuses in their rodent world!

And let's not forget food enrichment! No boring loose seeds with us, no! We have seeds still on the plant so Gerbils can channel their inner farmer. They can harvest their own harvest, which spectacularly enriches their dining experience. Imagine them crossing the desert in search of food, just like in the wild. So stick those seeds upright in the bedding and let the Gerbils discover their own mini oasis of treats. It's like a culinary adventure right in their own gnawing paradise!

Now, let's talk about those flavorful spices. Gerbils have a preference for plant parts such as roots, stems, leaves and flowers. So why shouldn't we give them that? Our Gerbil foods already contain a hint of spice, but it's always a good idea to add some extra fiber to their diet. Sprinkle some herbs around every now and then and let them enjoy the tasty fiber-rich treats. It will certainly do their intestines good and give an extra boost to their gnawing adventures!

Just a warning: not all herbs are suitable for Gerbils, so be careful! We have carefully selected herbs that are safe for our furry friends. But fresh herbs are a different story. They are more powerful!

Gerbils are desert animals by nature and their diet reflects this. In the dry and arid landscape where they come from, they mainly eat dry plant parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers. These plant parts not only provide essential nutrients but also help hydrate the Gerbils as they do not have much access to water in their natural environment.

When keeping Gerbils in captivity, it is important to replicate their diet as closely as possible. Adding herbs to their diet is a great way to do this. Herbs often contain valuable nutrients and provide extra flavor and variety to Gerbils' diets.

However, it is crucial to choose the right herbs. Not all herbs are suitable for Gerbils, some can even be harmful to their health. It is always wise to seek advice from a veterinarian or rodent specialist before adding any new herbs to your Gerbils' diet.

Fortunately, DRD Knaagdierwinkel® offers a carefully selected collection of herbs that are safe for Gerbils. From dandelion leaves to chamomile flowers and nettle leaves, we have a range of herbs that are not only tasty but also contribute to Gerbils' overall health and digestion. It's like a culinary adventure for your furry friends!

Another benefit of adding herbs to Gerbils' diets is that it stimulates their natural digging and foraging behavior. In the wild, Gerbils are constantly looking for food, and hiding a few herbs here and there in their environment can challenge them and keep them active. Hide the herbs in tunnels or among bedding and watch them have fun finding their tasty rewards. It's like a scavenger hunt that they will love!

So, if you're looking for ways to enrich your Gerbils' diet, why not add some tasty and healthy herbs? With our wide range of carefully selected herbs, you can ensure that your Gerbils enjoy a nutritious and varied diet, while also encouraging them to exhibit their natural digging and foraging behaviour. Order today from DRD Knaagdierwinkel® and give your Gerbils a tasty adventure that they cannot resist!

Do Gerbils Need Herbs?

Gerbils do not have a strict requirement for herbs in their diet, but adding herbs to their diets can provide several benefits. Herbs often contain valuable nutrients and fiber that can contribute to Gerbils' overall health and digestion.

Because Gerbils in the wild also eat plant parts such as the roots, stems, leaves and flowers of various plants and herbs, it is advisable to give the animals in our home the opportunity to eat these. Most good Gerbil foods already contain some herbs. If, for whatever reason, an all-in-one pellet is fed, then sprinkling herbs around occasionally is a good idea. The extra fiber will have a good effect on the animals' intestines.

Gerbils are desert animals by nature and their diet consists mainly of dry plant parts such as leaves, stems and flowers. These plant parts not only provide essential nutrients but also help hydrate Gerbils since they don't have much access to water in their natural environment. Herbs can complement this diet and provide extra variety and flavor.

Eating herbs can help stimulate Gerbils' natural digging and foraging behavior. Hiding herbs in their environment can challenge them and keep them active. This gives them the opportunity to dig, forage and find their food, just as they would in the wild. It is a form of food fortification that can promote their physical and mental well-being.

Can Gerbils have all Herbs?

No definitely not! You always have to be careful with herbs. The herbs we have selected are suitable for Gerbils, but there are also herbs that should not be given because they can have a bad effect. We also advise against giving fresh herbs without a good knowledge of herbs. Fresh herbs are many times stronger than dried herbs, so the effect on digestion can be many times greater due to the fresh ingredients. Gerbils are desert animals that mainly eat dry plant parts, just like in the desert (arid plants).

Do Gerbils like Herbs?

Gerbils are naturally mainly interested in energy-rich foods, such as seeds, because they contain essential oils, fats and carbohydrates. Because of this, they will often prefer seeds to herbs. However, for good digestion and the required fiber in their diet, herbs are very important.

Gerbils eat herbs as needed. To understand this better, we need to take a look at how animals live in the wild. Gerbils live in a warm and arid environment. It is vital to get as much energy as possible, which is why Gerbils prefer energy-rich food, but this is difficult to find. Energy-rich foods include, for example, plant seeds, which, in addition to essential oils and fats, also contain energy-giving carbohydrates. Gerbils will therefore always prefer the seeds to the herbs, but fiber is also needed for good digestion and the herbs provide that.

If you want to test whether your Gerbils like herbs, you can offer small amounts of different herbs and observe their reaction. Watch for signs of interest, nibbling or tasty consumption. However, not all Gerbils may respond equally enthusiastically, as individual taste preferences may vary.

Do Gerbils Need Hay?

Yes, Gerbils need hay in their diet. Hay is not only nice for Gerbils to nibble on, but it also has several important functions for their health and well-being.

In addition, hay can also be used to strengthen the ground cover. This way the animals can improve their gaits. The hay can then be used as an intermediate layer, with a bedding layer spread underneath and over it.

In addition, hay is a source of fiber and helps to wear down the teeth of rodents. If the animals need extra fiber, they can nibble on the hay.

Gnawing hay also helps wear down Gerbils' teeth. Rodents' teeth grow continuously, so they need to wear down regularly to prevent excessive growth. Chewing hay helps wear down the teeth naturally and prevents dental problems such as overgrowth or crooked teeth.

Gerbils also use the hay to line their sleeping area. Hay also has an insulating effect so it is nice and warm.

Make it fun for the Gerbils!

Gerbils are known to naturally like to dig and hide. So, what happens when you combine their diet with their love of digging? You get an "edible treasure hunter"!

Imagine making a little edible treasure map for your Gerbils. Hide some Gerbil hay, herbs and seeds in different parts of their enclosure. You can fill small toilet paper bags with a tasty mix of treats and bury them underground, like a true treasure hunter. Place some hay in tunnels, hide some herbs in small holes and scatter seeds around as trails leading to the big reward.

Once your Gerbils discover the clues, they will use their natural digging instincts to search for the hidden treasures. They will dig, sniff and eat their way through their habitat, excited and curious about what they will find. It is like an adventure game where they not only get their nutrition but also stimulate their mind and body.

And when they finally find the hidden treats, you can enjoy the spectacle of their enthusiasm and joy as they tuck into their well-deserved reward. It's a great way to keep them active and engaged, while also enjoying a delicious meal.

So what are you waiting for? Create your own "edible treasure hunt adventure" and watch your Gerbils bring out their inner treasure hunters. Order some Gerbil hay, herbs and seeds today from DRD Knaagdierwinkel® and turn every meal into an exciting voyage of discovery!
