Review: The critical care was spoilt. - The critical care was spoilt and it smelled weird. Review: This product is spoiled. Smells unlike the identical product I got a week before - It smelled kinda moldy and my rabbits who LOVED the exact same product and flavor a week ago from a different package did not like this one.. the expiry is in 2024 so something else must be wrong. They ultimately ate a little but stopped quickly. I hope it.doesnt harm them! ## Features - Designed specifically to support the needs of small herbivores - Powdered formula - just add water - High in fiber, no added sugar - High palatability - Apple Banana flavor ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001FKACXO | | Additional Features | Contains all essential nutrients, targeted at rabbits and rats | | Age Range Description | All Life Stages | | Allergen Information | Soy Free | | Animal Food Diet Type | Plant-Based | | Animal Food Ingredient Claim | Grass-Fed | | Animal Food Nutrient Content Claim | High Fiber | | Best Sellers Rank | #13,308 in Pet Supplies ( See Top 100 in Pet Supplies ) #101 in Small Animal Food | | Brand Name | OXBOW | | Breed Recommendation | Small animals | | Container Type | Pouch | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (4,720) | | Dog Breed Size | Small | | Flavor | Apple Banana | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00744845701011 | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Type Name | Critical Care Herbivore | | Item Weight | 0.31 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Oxbow Animal Health LLC | | Manufacturer Part Number | 103-450-0141 | | Model Number | 744845701011 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Occasion | Birthday | | Product Benefits | High fiber content and nutrition, tasty critical care for health recovery | | Recommended Uses For Product | Supports digestive health and immune function during intensive care | | Special Ingredients | Sugar Free, Gluten Free | | Specific Uses For Product | Stomach, Weaning, Weight | | Target Species | [INFERRED: Small Herbivores (e.g., Rabbit, Guinea Pig, Chinchilla, Hamster)] | | UPC | 744845701011 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Age range (description):** All Life Stages - **Brand:** OXBOW - **Flavour:** Apple Banana - **Item form:** Powder - **Specific uses for product:** Stomach, Weaning, Weight ## Images ![Oxbow Animal Health Critical Care, Herbivore, Apple-Banana Flavor, 141 Gram Bag - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81XWrcpmgjL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does it expire?** A: after you bought it. expiration is about 1 year .Once you opened the Packages its recommend that you used with in 30 days after 30 days throw it out . I always keep one Package on hand . I never know when my Guinea Pigs get Sick .This Critical Care Is great.I give it 10 Stars .Please buy it . **Q: Is this food suitable for Bearded Dragons?** A: The oxbow website, and bearded dragon website suggest oxbow carnivore care for bearded dragons..this one is for herbivores. **Q: How long will one bag of 141g last, specifically for guinea pigs?** A: I have a Chinchiia. I am not sure. Would depend on how much you feed it . I only used about 2 wks and Chinchillia is fine now. She should go back to eating here or his regular meals. I did take my Chinchillia to a Vet. She is doing fine now. I do not think it is a good idea to feed it for ever with this product. Just till they feel better.I did put in the fridge and think it helps with the shelf life. I think all expire in 30 days. Hope helped some. Sherry **Q: Is this suitable for hamsters** A: Hamsters are omnivores not herbivores, so probably not ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ The critical care was spoilt. *by R***O on 1 October 2025* The critical care was spoilt and it smelled weird. ### ⭐⭐ This product is spoiled.
