Often Mistaken For

Is Fresh Lawn item toxic?

Fresh lawn grass is not a concentrated toxin like many houseplants, but too much at once can still loosen stool in rabbits, guinea pigs, and chinchillas. Herbicides, fertilizers, dog urine, moldy clippings, and mystery weeds are the bigger dangers.

Should I feed my pet Fresh Lawn?

Sometimes, for many rabbits—only clean, unsprayed lawn clippings in small daily amounts as an add-on to unlimited hay. Use extra caution with guinea pigs and chinchillas.

How much can I feed them?

Offer a small handful of fresh clippings daily for rabbits if stool stays firm; scale down or stop if stool softens. For guinea pigs and chinchillas, offer only a few blades as a rare taste test unless your veterinarian approves more.
