Product Description

Give your small furries a naturally satisfying way to chew with our Apple Twigs, a safe and delicious enrichment treat for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, degus and other small animals.

Apple wood is a popular choice among small animals thanks to its appealing taste and crunchy texture. Chewing on natural twigs helps encourage instinctive gnawing behaviours, provides environmental enrichment, and can help keep little mouths entertained throughout the day.

Perfect for scattering around your pet's enclosure, adding to forage boxes, or offering as a boredom-busting treat, these natural apple twigs provide a simple yet effective way to enrich your pet's environment and maintain those ever-growing teeth of course!

Product benefits:

100% natural apple wood twigs
Encourages natural chewing behaviours and dental wear
Ideal for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus
Perfect for forage boxes and enrichment setups
High in fibre and has astringent properties

Pack size: 100g.

Please note: Our Apple Twigs are cut to approximately 23cm in length. As this is a natural product, diameters will vary, although most are 1cm or less. For this reason, Apple Twigs are sold by weight rather than by the number of twigs.
