Create a warm, cosy, and safe environment for your small pet with Norfolk Pastures XL Barley Straw — a premium bedding straw chosen specifically for its soft texture, golden colour, and natural suitability for small animals.
Norfolk Pastures exclusively use Barley Straw — not Wheat Straw. This is an important distinction: Wheat Straw is known to have sharper, more brittle stalks that can cause injuries and eye infections in small animals. Barley Straw, by contrast, has a softer, gentler texture that makes it far safer and more comfortable for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, and other small pets.
Harvested at peak dryness when the straw is at its most golden, it is stored carefully in dry barns to preserve quality. The straw is left in longer strands to encourage natural burrowing behaviour, giving your pet the stimulating, instinct-driven environment they need to thrive.
