Carob is a flowering evergreen tree that is grown mainly in the Mediterranean, it is harvested for its edible pods (Locust Beans) which are dried and used in both human grade food and animal food. Our locust Bean Treats make a great nibble treat for Rodents, Hamsters & other small animals. They are great for feeding as part of a natural diet, as a treat or as a topper to hay for added foraging fun! Being flaked, it is easy to ensure only a small amount is fed (as they are high in natural sugar), and it can be used in treat dispensers or activity toys too.

Feeding Guide

As with all dried forage, this should be introduced into the diet gradually to avoid any digestive upset. Dried forage should always be fed as part of a balanced diet and not as a replacement for hay.

Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.

Bunny Bistro

How much natural forage should I be feeding?

If you ask your bunnies, they will say there is no such thing as too much forage! For the most part, they are correct, you can feed your bunnies as much natural forage as they will eat. We recommend mixing handfuls in with their hay as well as giving handfuls throughout the day. There are certain scenarios where you should limit forage, for example if your rabbit is overweight, you should limit forage that is high in protein & sugars.
