Product Information

Indoor rabbits have different requirements from outdoor rabbits. In particular, they tend to have less room to exercise and run around. Indoor rabbits are not exposed to sunlight on a regular basis, either, which means that they will need to get vitamin D from a different source: typically, their food. Excel Burgess Indoor Rabbit Nuggets are formulated for the needs of indoor rabbits. Ensure that you switch from one meal to the other slowly over a period of 10 to 14 days if you are giving Selective to your bunnies for the first time. As you progressively decrease the quantity of the previous rabbit diet while carefully adding more Selective, start by combining a little bit of Selective with your rabbits" present food. Even when switching to a higher-quality diet, a fast diet change can disturb digestion. Selective is made with regulated calcium: phosphorus ratio and 25% crude fibre, so you can be confident you are giving your rabbits the highest-quality nuggets possible that will enhance their wellness and boost energy.

This junior rabbit food contains all-natural ingredients that mimic a rabbit’s natural diet, with no added sugars and a low caloric count. It’s also fortified with the extra ingredients that a growing bunny will need. Hay and grass are important not only for rabbits’ nutrition but also for their teeth. Since rabbits’ teeth continue to grow throughout their lives, chewing on fibres such as grass and hay helps to grind them down. That said, remember that freshly cut grass is toxic for rabbits. A rabbit diet is quite complex. While you can provide a cat or dog with all of its nutritional requirements from a single source, this isn’t possible with rabbits. They need a variety of food types, not only ensuring that they get the right amount of protein and fibre in their diet but also ensuring that they get all essential vitamins and minerals. A rabbit’s diet can also affect things like dental health, weight, and digestive health.

With forage as the main source of fibre, Selective contains lots of other tasty, natural ingredients too – linseed with Omega 3 & 6 that help to keep your rabbit’s skin and coat in tip top condition, as well as natural prebiotics to help promote friendly bacteria. Timothy hay is dried Timothy grass. It is considered suitable for all rabbits, and it offers them the nutritional values that they require. Meadow hay is a more generic hay that might include some Timothy grass but will usually consist of several different types of grass. As such, it is difficult to know the exact protein and fibre content. Feeding meadow hay means that you might not be providing the diet that your rabbit requires. Most commercially available hay is Timothy hay, and if the type of hay is unspecified, it is likely to be meadow grass hay. Conclusion Rabbits make lovely pets for caring owners.
