The plants are nutritious, healthy and also have a very nice decorative function, but there is something else we should not forget. The plants promote the natural behavior of guinea pigs. In the wild, guinea pigs spend most of their time foraging for food and essentially eating throughout the day. Herbivores (animals that eat plants) have a gastrointestinal system that can only work if new food is continually eaten. The new food pushes the old food through the intestines, so to speak, which is why it is very important that guinea pigs have hay available all day long.

In the wild, animals choose their own food, but a large part of the diet consists of fresh plant parts. These are chosen for their fiber, vitamins, minerals, trace elements, proteins, but also for their medicinal effect. Many plants are known for their health-promoting properties. The animals know this better than anyone and even in the wild they instinctively look for the right plant for an ailment.
