🌿 Woodland Calm & Chew Forage Tray

Enrichment • Digestion • Calm • Dental Support • Natural Foraging

A carefully structured forage tray designed to encourage calm exploration, natural chewing and digestive comfort. This blend combines aromatic herbs, grounding roots, soft browse leaves and a wholesome hay chew, creating a varied sensory experience that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing.

Optimised for slow foraging, stress reduction, and gut support, this tray is ideal for animals that benefit from enrichment with purpose — not just decoration.

🌱 Ingredient Breakdown (Optimised %)

Hornbeam Leaves – 25%

Dandelion Roots – 20%

Willow Catkins – 15%

Dried Lettuce – 15%

Peppermint – 10%

Mixed Flowers – 10%

Hay Cookie – 5%

Why this balance works:
Leafy browse forms the bulk (40%), roots and chew elements add structure (25%), aromatics and flowers remain supportive but controlled (20%), and the hay cookie anchors the tray as enrichment rather than feed (5%).

🌿 Ingredient Roles & Benefits

Hornbeam Leaves (25%)
A gentle browse leaf that supports digestion and gut motility. Adds natural texture and grazing behaviour without overstimulation.

Firm, fibrous roots that encourage chewing and support digestive movement. Excellent for dental engagement and boredom reduction.

Willow Catkins (15%)
Seasonal forage that encourages exploration and gnawing. Adds interest and supports natural chewing behaviour.

Dried Lettuce (15%)
Light, digestible leaf that increases grazing time and bulk without heaviness. Encourages relaxed, continuous foraging.

Peppermint (10%)
Aromatic herb that supports digestion and helps reduce gas. Kept at a controlled level to avoid overstimulation.

Mixed Flowers (10%)
Provides antioxidant support, colour and sensory enrichment. Chamomile within the mix contributes gentle calming support.
