Details:

Young at Heart herbal blend was created to address elder animal concerns. This herbal blend is an anti-inflammatory and mild analgesic, to address the aches and pains of old age. It’s a kidney and liver tonic, to keep those toxins flushed. It contains some extra calories and good fats, to keep weight on. It has some yummies that encourage eating. Small animals can have high cholesterol, just like we can, so this mix fights the bad fats. It’s cancer-fighting, helps to prevent urinary tract issues, and is a general immune boost. As you see, it’s A LOT of great things!

Variety is so important in small animal diets. Rabbits, guinea pigs, and chickens are natural foragers. They don’t eat only one type of grass, flower, herb or bark. They eat a little bit of this and a little bit of that. (Depending on what’s seasonally available, of course.) Without diet variety, they can suffer a lack of trace minerals and other nutritional components. Small Pet Select’s Young at Heart herbal blend provides the variety they need to mimic forage. This small animal herbal blend is made of whole foods. A whole food = something to eat that’s still in its natural state and is bioavailable. It’s still what it ever was. Nothing is taken out of the original plant. A berry that has vitamin C is a whole food. A leaf is a whole food. A whole food gives vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids, fatty acids, and other micronutrients in a way the body needs them and understands them.

Rabbit and guinea pig teeth also require a variety of foods. They need to bite and chew, and crunch. They need to pull at bark and twigs. If they don’t get a chance to do all those things, mouth health can deteriorate and tooth problems crop up. And although chickens don’t have teeth, it’s still perfect for them, especially if they’re not free-range. Plus, it will make your coop or brood smell ah-mazing!
