Daily Skin & Coat Nutrition for Rabbits and Guinea Pigs

Healthy skin and a well-maintained coat are an important part of everyday care for rabbits and guinea pigs, especially during shedding season, heavy molts and long-haired breed care.

Our Skin & Coat Care Hay Powder is a Timothy hay-based supplementary food formulated with flaxseed, carrot, red bell pepper, tomato, papaya and blueberry to provide a variety of naturally occurring plant nutrients as part of a balanced daily diet.

Flaxseed adds naturally occurring plant fats to the formula, while colorful vegetables and fruits provide additional nutritional variety from whole plant ingredients.

Its finely ground texture makes it easy to mix with water and serve as a soft hay-based meal, making it especially convenient during molting periods or for rabbits and guinea pigs that benefit from additional daily nutritional support.

Many long-term customers choose this formula during shedding season and for long-haired rabbits. Some customers have also reported that their rabbits' coats appeared smoother, shinier and easier to maintain with less tangling when the formula was included regularly in their feeding routine.

This formula is intended to complement a hay-based diet. Unlimited long-strand hay and fresh water should always remain available.
