Great product
Great quality! Even stands up to getting wet (rain hit their covered play area sideways). Unfortunately, not of my (11) guineas know what to do with them yet....
Didn’t get a chance to try it
Our Guinea pig Cookie passed away a day before this arrived. I’m sure she would have loved it. I will donate it to our local animal shelter so another piggie or rabbit can enjoy.
The Bun loves it!
Our rabbit loves these. Always seems to be good quality, good price.
Lip Licking Good!
My rabbit loves the salt and mineral wheels. They are important for his well being and the price at Chewy is great.
A must-have
Anyone dissing these for "I just hung it up and my (insert small animal here) hasn't touched it in a week" has no clue about animal nutrition. ALL animals should have access to a salt lick. Don't grind it into or sprinkle on their food! Humans are the only animals that will eat salt to excess, all other creatures will use it when they need it! My guinea pigs & horses will go weeks without touching it and suddenly their body tells them "I NEED salt!" and they start licking away. Wildlife watchers will tell you there are spots where animals congregate (even insects!) around natural mineral sources. This isn't a "treat", it is a dietary necessity. Adding it directly to their food will cause them to eat less (salt is often added to "free-choice" livestock diets to prevent over-consumption of the diet, but this is carefully measured, don't do this with home pets).
i rlly wanted to like this but...
well, i ordered this because my bunnies needed the minerals and salt but they havent touched it since i got it a few days ago. but they need the minerals and salt so i grounded it into a powder and i mixed a tiny bit of them both into their food bowls and mix it with their food. it works and they are still getting the nutritions they need. but i dont really recommend this unless you wanna be grounding the salt and minerals
Do Not Feed These
These are horrible to give to your rabbits, gerbils, hamsters or any animal. These are not safe as they can cause health issues in your animals. If you’re giving your animal a well balanced diet they will have all the nutrients they need.
Broken product sent
This is the only mineral wheel Chewy is selling and is so overpriced at $3.60, but still least you get the metal clip to hang the wheel on. So I was not happy when I opened my package just now and I was sent a mineral wheel that is broken in half and is crumbling. Nothing else in the huge box is broken but this, meaning I was probably sent an already broken product. The wheel not able to hang up so it is pretty much worthless.
My rabbit won't even touch these
My rabbit is a 10 pound, male, New Zealand bunny and he does not want to even touch these. He has never even licked them. He only ever moves them out of his way.
Link lick, yum yum
My ladies and gentleman love their saltlwheels. I keep then stocked up.
