85-90% of your small animal’s diet should be made up of hay and/or grass. You can choose between meadow hay or timothy hay, but it should be available to your pet at all times. 

Fresh, clean water is also an essential for your rabbits, guinea pigs & chinchillas. 

The rest of your pet’s diet should be made up of a small amount of Excel nuggets, a handful of fresh leafy greens, and the occasional treat. Why not explore our selection of treats for your rabbit, or explore delicious options for your guinea pig or chinchilla?

It’s also a good idea to keep an eye on your small animal’s weight to ensure they’re healthy. 

If you’re unsure about any of the above advice, or would like more information, contact your vet who will be able to help.

Excel Timothy Hay Box FAQs

With its high fibre and low protein composition, Timothy Hay is one of the best feeding hays for rabbits. Its carefully designed nutrition includes essential vitamins and minerals that help promote digestive health, while your rabbits’ dental health benefits from all the chewing.

Because Timothy Hay for bunnies has all the dust extracted, it also helps promote optimum respiratory health, while its low calories mean it’s a great choice for keeping your rabbits’ weight under control.

As well as providing high-quality nutrition, feeding your rabbits Timothy Hay can also encourage playtime activities. Add bunches of Timothy Hay to your bunnies’ home using cardboard tubes or balls and watch them have fun as they discover how to get it out!

Rabbits are natural foragers and munching on hay can prevent boredom, helping to keep them happy.

Fresh-cut Timothy Hay for rabbits should ideally be added to the places where they rest and poo. You’ll find that they spend a good portion of the day munching on hay so it’s a good idea to spread it out across their favourite places.

Good-quality feeding hay should make up around 90% of your rabbits’ diet, so offer Timothy Hay as the main source of their food intake. Rabbits can’t eat too much hay so don’t worry about overfeeding, as long as you’re not providing an array of extra treats and food on top.

While fresh Timothy Hay should be the main source of nutrients for your rabbits, you can also incorporate a small amount of other foods as part of the Excel Feeding Plan:

  • Excel Tasty Nuggets: These can be fed to your bunnies as a supplement to Timothy feeding hay or grass.
  • Excel Nature Snacks: These should be fed as occasional treats to encourage foraging and natural behaviour. It’s important to not feed too many treats to prevent weight gain.
  • Fresh Greens: Greens and vegetables from the wild or supermarket – including dark green cabbage, parsley and dandelions – can also be fed to your rabbits to provide a balanced diet. But be careful not to feed your bunnies any foods that are toxic or poisonous and, if in doubt, contact your vet for advice.
  • Fresh Water: Remember always to make sure your rabbits have fresh water available and to change it daily.

When you choose Burgess for your rabbits’ Timothy Hay, you can be sure they’re getting only the highest-quality food, made at our very own factory in the heart of Yorkshire.

As well as fresh-cut Timothy Hay for rabbits, you’ll also find a range of tasty nuggets and treats for your buns to help keep their diet interesting.
