Product Information

Full details

Burgess Excel Adult Rabbit Nuggets with Mint are ideal for adult rabbit owners looking to ensure a balanced, high-fiber diet that promotes optimal digestive and dental health. These nuggets are specifically formulated to prevent selective feeding, a common issue with muesli-style mixes, though they must always be fed alongside a constant supply of fresh hay, which should make up the vast majority of your rabbit's daily intake.

FAQs

At what age should I switch my rabbit to these adult nuggets?

You can typically switch your rabbit to adult nuggets from 16 weeks of age, though consult your vet if your rabbit has specific health needs.

Can I feed this as the only food source for my rabbit?

No. These nuggets should be fed alongside unlimited high-quality feeding hay, which is vital for digestive health and tooth wear.

Why does my rabbit pick through other food but not this?

Because this is a 'nugget' or 'pellet' style feed, every piece has the same composition, removing the option for the rabbit to 'selectively feed' on sugary pieces.

Does this food contain enough fiber?

Yes, it is formulated with high levels of beneficial fiber to support the digestive system, but it must be supplemented with long-strand hay.

How long will a 3kg bag last?

Usage depends on the size and age of your rabbit, but a 3kg bag is designed to last a standard-sized adult rabbit for several weeks when fed at the recommended daily amount.

Troubleshooting

My rabbit is refusing to eat the nuggets.

Ensure the transition was gradual. If they are new to the brand, mix them with their previous food over 10 days to allow them to adjust to the new taste and texture.

Rabbit is only eating hay and ignoring the nuggets.

This is actually ideal! Hay should make up 85-90% of their diet. As long as they are eating some nuggets to get their vitamins, a primary focus on hay is healthy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Store these nuggets in a cool, dry place, ideally in an airtight container to keep the mint aroma fresh and the pellets crunchy. This product is designed specifically for adult rabbits (usually from 16 weeks to 5 years old). If you have a senior or juvenile rabbit, check the product packaging for specific range alternatives, as their nutrient requirements differ. Ensure the food bowl is cleaned daily to remove any debris or dust.
