Rodipet Organic Gerbil Food "Junior" (500g)
Nature's recipe
This Rodipet® food's composition is based on a number of research expeditions to the natural habitats of wild gerbils in Central Asia. There, we investigated what types of food would be available to wild gerbils during various seasons. We combined the knowledge gained from those expeditions with the latest findings of research into the nutritional needs of pet rodents to develop this recipe. Carefully chosen delicious herbs, quality grains & seeds and tasty roots and vegetables from organic sources remind us of the wide steppes of Central Asia that are the native habitats of Meriones unguiculatus gerbils.
Foraging adventure
Wild gerbils live in steppes and desert-like areas, where they find a varied diet that changes with the seasons. On their frequent rambles through nature, gerbils use their sensitive noses to find all the best bits of food, which they either carry home or eat then and there. If you like, you can also entertain your pets with a foraging adventure: Instead of providing all the food in a feeding bowl, you can scatter the compound food around your gerbils’ enclosure or bury it under a thin layer of substrate in the digging box. You can then watch your pets act out their natural behaviour, digging up even the smallest seed or grain.
