Oxbow Natural Science Digestive Support
Oxbow Natural Science Digestive Support is formulated specifically for herbivorous small animals and leverages the brand’s nutrition-first approach to digestive health, using gentler, species-appropriate ingredients well suited to rabbits and guinea pigs. While not always the cheapest option, it delivers technical advantages for strict herbivores—prioritizing fiber- and nutrient-compatible support—making it preferable to generalist pastes for that use case.
