Lotions & Potions

Galens Garden have been producing liquid and powdered herbal blends for rabbits and guinea pigs for over 20 years using mainly the herbs they would eat in the wild.

Our new range of creams & gels use herbal infusions of Hedgerow Herbs, chickweed, nettle & calendula.  All Galen's Garden's creams, gels, blended herbal tinctures and syrups now come in colour coded bottles for easy of use, and because they're pretty!

Herbivore Diet

Rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus all need a diet high in long, indigestible (lignified) fibre to keep their teeth and digestive system healthy

In the wild, herbivores would spend most of their waking hours munching away at plant materials such as grasses and wild plants.  Their natural diet is a 'slow food' diet.  A bowl of rabbit muesli is the equivalent of a fast food diet. 

Graze Trays

Graze Trays are an easy way to provide rabbits and guinea pigs with fresh grass all year round.  Galen's Garden offer a wide range of Graze Trays including individual grasses, Galen's Meadow Mix, sainfoin, clover, fenugreek, kale, oat grass, wheat grass, barley grass, spelt grass, alfalfa, individual herbs and vegetables.

The grass trays can be grazed then allowed to recover and produce new growth. They will also 'stand' for weeks or months on end providing a natural larder of fresh food on tap

Herbs for Rabbits

Wild rabbits not only eat a healthy diet of fresh grass, they also have access to a wide variety of wild plants which they can eat to balance out their diet and keep themselves healthy.

When we keep rabbits in captivity we remove them from both their natural diet and the herbs they would naturally eat if they were in any way unwell.  Providing rabbits with a range of herbs that they can choose to eat, or refuse, gives  them the opportunity to balance their own diet according to their needs..

Chinchilla Treats

Fruits of the Forest is a specially designed 'low-sugar', 'high-fibre' chinchilla treat with wild berries & tree shoots to satisfy the foraging instincts of pet chinchillas.

Chinchillas and degus also relish our Edible Flowers, Berry Burritos, and Aunt Sally's crunchy Grassy Logs, all which are also suitable for rabbits and guinea pigs. 

Look out for our Wood N Rope toys too! 

Guinea Pig Grooming

New Piggy Poo guinea pig conditioning shampoo is made from an infusion of Hedgerow Herbs with essential oils of Bog Myrtle and Fragonia especially designed for guinea pig skin and coat.  There's also Piglet Poo with no essential oils for sows after a messy labour or babies from 6 weeks - not that babies should get grubby with mama pig grooming them!

We also have Boar Bottom Balm for gentle cleansing of the grease spot and Dry Poo 'dust bath' style shampoo for greasy coats.
