The hay rack is made of sturdy and powder-coated metal. The lid prevents the rodent from climbing into the hay rack and the hay stays neatly in the hay rack. Because the hay rack is high on its legs, the hay does not come into contact with the feces and the hay remains clean and hygienic.
✔ Made of metal, making it gnaw-proof
✔ To be filled with hay, grass etc.
✔ Lid prevents the animal from climbing in
✔ Prevents contamination of the feed by feces and urine
✔ On legs so that the hay is further off the ground
This hay rack is suitable for use as a basic hay rack.
This hay rack was designed together with the German Animal Protection according to the strictest animal welfare regulations? It's true! This hay rack was designed according to Article 18 (AT) of the German Animal Welfare Act.
A good quality hay rack should be designed so that rodents can put their snouts between the bars, but not their entire head. The appropriate bar spacing depends on the species and size of the animal. In general, the following spacings are recommended:
Guinea pigs: about 3 cm
Degus: about 2.5 to 3 cm
Chinchillas: about 2.5 to 3 cm
Dwarf rabbits: about 3 to 3.5 cm
Medium rabbits: up to about 4 cm
Large rabbits: up to about 4.5 cm
It is very important that the animals cannot put their heads through the bars, because otherwise they can get trapped. This is different if the bars are very far apart and the animals can easily move their heads back and forth. If you notice that your rodent's head just fits through the bars and could possibly get trapped, it is advisable to remove the hay rack from the enclosure and choose one with a smaller bar distance.
The Tierschutz-Kennzeichen (Animal Welfare Seal) is the only official seal of approval for products that comply with the Austrian Animal Welfare Act. It is awarded by the Fachstelle für tiergerechte Tierhaltung und Tierschutz (FTT), an independent body established by the legislator, and guarantees compliance with animal welfare regulations.
In order to be certified, the products must meet the requirements of the Austrian Animal Welfare Act, including the associated regulations. The assessment is based on legal requirements, current scientific findings and practical experience, comparisons with similar products and inspection and testing of the products.
Each product assessed and positively evaluated by the Fachstelle is given a unique test number with the Tierschutz-Kennzeichen, with which it is clearly recognisable. The test number consists of the year, a number for the animal category and a serial number.
