Wombaroo Kangaroo Pellets – Nutritional Support for Australian Herbivores

Wombaroo Kangaroo Pellets are a specially formulated nutritional supplement designed for Australian native herbivores, including kangaroos, wallabies, and wombats. This balanced pellet supports digestive health, immune function, and overall wellbeing, making it an ideal addition to a natural diet of grass, hay, and browse.


Key Benefits:

  • High Fibre Content: Promotes natural chewing behaviour, supports gut motility, and maintains healthy digestion.

  • Low Starch Formula: Helps reduce the risk of dental disease and gut acidosis associated with high-starch cereal diets.

  • Rich in Antioxidants: Contains protective nutrients that help combat oxidative stress and support immune health.

  • Low Oxalate Levels: Designed to support urinary tract health by reducing dietary oxalate intake.

Feeding Instructions:

Feed Wombaroo Kangaroo Pellets as a nutritional supplement alongside pasture, native browse, and hay. Always ensure access to fresh water, especially as pellet feeding may increase water consumption.

Feeding Rate:
Use as a supplement comprising approximately 15% of the total dry matter intake. The exact amount will vary depending on the animal's species, age, weight, and the quality of other foods in the diet.
Note: 1 metric cup = approx. 120g of Wombaroo Pellets.


Transitioning to Wombaroo Pellets:

Some captive herbivores may be habituated to diets high in cereals, fruits, vegetables, or lucerne hay. To promote healthy eating habits, gradually phase out these foods while introducing Wombaroo Pellets.

For Successful Transitioning:

  • Ensure animals are in good health and housed in a low-stress environment.

  • Convert during mild weather conditions, avoiding temperature extremes.

  • Provide constant access to clean water.

  • Remove other non-native food sources like muesli mixes, fruit, or vegetables.

Young animals typically adapt more easily to new foods, while older animals may require patience and persistence.


Using Pellets for Weaning Joeys:

Hand-reared joeys can be weaned onto pellets by soaking them in milk formula to create a soft mash. Gradually reduce the liquid content as the joey adjusts to solid food. This method ensures a smooth transition from milk to a nutritionally complete adult diet.
