A simple, naturally aromatic browse forage made from 100% dried apple leaves, perfect for adding another leaf shape, flavour and texture to everyday forage rotations.

Apple leaves are light, crisp and easy to scatter through hay, forage trays and enrichment areas, encouraging animals to search, select and browse naturally.

Unlike dried apple fruit, the leaves provide the interest of the apple tree without turning the forage into a sugary fruit treat.

Simple, leafy and naturally interesting. 🍏🌿

🌿 Why Apple Leaves?

🍃 Natural Browse

Apple leaves provide a completely different texture from hay and grasses, making them useful for adding botanical variety to a fibre-led diet.

🌾 Forage Variety

Different leaves bring different:

• Shapes

• Scents

• Textures

• Flavours

to feeding time, encouraging animals to investigate rather than simply eat from one uniform pile.

🍏 Apple Without the Fruit

Apple leaves give animals another part of the apple tree to explore without the naturally high sugar found in dried apple pieces.

This makes them particularly useful for forage rotations where you want interest without adding sugary fruit.

✨ Naturally Occurring Plant Compounds

Apple leaves contain naturally occurring plant compounds including polyphenols, giving them an additional antioxidant botanical element.

🐾 Natural Enrichment

Their light, crisp texture works brilliantly for:

• Scatter feeding

• Mixing through hay

• Forage trays

• Hiding amongst enrichment

• Combining with other suitable leaves and flowers

Apple leaves are established rabbit forage, with PDSA specifically listing apple leaves and twigs amongst safe plants to forage.

Specialist small-animal forage retailers also sell apple leaves for rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and other small animals, while apple-tree browse is widely offered for chinchillas, degus, rats and mice.

🥄 Species-Specific Feeding Guide

Offer as complementary forage alongside the normal balanced diet and fresh drinking water.

• 🐰 Rabbits: Small handful 2–4× weekly

• 🐹 Guinea Pigs: 1–2 tsp or small handful, 2–4× weekly

• 🐭 Chinchillas: Small pinch 1–2× weekly

• 🐹 Degus: Small pinch 1–2× weekly

• 🐹 Hamsters: ½–1 tsp, 1–2× weekly

• 🐭 Gerbils: ½–1 tsp, 1–2× weekly

• 🐀 Rats: 1–2 tsp, 1–2× weekly

• 🐁 Mice: Small pinch 1–2× weekly

• 🐿️ Chipmunks: Approx. 1 tsp, 1–2× weekly

Scatter through hay or offer in a forage tray to encourage natural searching and browsing.

Introduce unfamiliar forage gradually.

Rabbits and guinea pigs should continue to have unlimited suitable hay or grass available at all times.

Apple leaves are different from apple fruit — there is no need to treat them as a sugary fruit treat, but they should still form part of a varied forage rotation rather than replacing the staple diet.

🍏 Perfect For

• Mixing through hay

• Scatter feeding

• Forage trays

• Leaf rotations

• Adding new textures

• Combining with suitable grasses, flowers and browse

• Natural enrichment

🌿 Carefully Selected by GGT

These apple leaves are carefully sourced for GGT rather than grown and dried here, allowing me to offer useful single-ingredient botanicals alongside the products I make myself.

I choose sourced products using the same principles as the rest of GGT:

✔ Species suitability
✔ Ingredient quality
✔ Natural forage value
✔ Sensible feeding
✔ A genuine reason for including it in the range

Carefully sourced. Personally selected for GGT.
