🌿 Why These Sticks Help

  • Natural tooth file – dense, safe wood shaves incisors every crunch, preventing overgrowth and dental pain Amazon

  • Mild pain-ease – willow bark holds salicin, a plant aspirin that gently reduces low-grade aches and post-play stiffness VcaThe Pet Health and Nutrition Center

  • Trace-mineral lift – supplies zinc, cobalt and magnesium for glossy coats and steady nerves Vca

  • Boredom breaker – shredding bark satisfies natural foraging urges and keeps cages calm Rabbit Hole HayBinkyBunny

No bleaches, kiln-drying or flavourings—just pesticide-free willow from local coppice.

🥄 How to Offer

Rabbits – Offer two to three pencil-thick sticks (about 8–10 cm long) every day. Leave them in the hay pile or wedge between cage bars and replace once the bark is stripped.

Guinea pigs – Two sticks (around 8 cm) daily. Hide them under hay to encourage natural foraging and chewing.

Chinchillas – One stick (8 cm) every other day. Willow is softer than apple, making it a good rotation chew.

Degus – One stick (8 cm) three times a week. Remove and discard any sharp splinters.

Gerbils, rats & mice – One mini stick (about 5 cm) twice a week. Place in bedding or a toy for gnaw enrichment.

Hamsters – One small stick once a week. Tuck into a sand bath, hide box or scatter in substrate.

Parakeets & small parrots – Thread one pencil-thin twig through cage bars weekly for bark-stripping play.

Chickens – Scatter two or three sticks in the run twice a week. Remove any mud-soaked wood after a day.

Wild ducks & garden birds – Willow sticks aren’t necessary, but harmless if pecked.

⚠️ Pain-killer Note

Willow contains natural salicin. Avoid feeding alongside vet-prescribed NSAIDs unless advised—double dosing can upset the stomach.
