FAQs

How often should I feed my rabbit the pellets?

Feed your rabbit once or twice a day, adjusting the amount based on its size, age, and activity level. Always provide unlimited access to fresh hay and water.

Can I feed these pellets to my guinea pig?

Yes, these pellets are suitable for guinea pigs. Supplement their diet with fresh vegetables and hay.

How should I store the pellets?

Store the pellets in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and moisture. Seal the bag or transfer to an airtight container to maintain freshness.

What should I do if my rabbit doesn't like the pellets?

Try mixing the pellets with your rabbit's existing food. If the issue persists, gradually introduce the pellets. It may take some time for your rabbit to get used to the new food. If problems persist consult your vet.

What is the shelf life of these pellets?

Check the expiration date on the bag. Once opened, use within a reasonable timeframe to ensure freshness and nutritional value, typically within a few months.

Do I still need to give my rabbit hay if I feed it these pellets?

Yes, hay is crucial for rabbits' digestive health and dental care. Pellets alone do not provide enough fiber or help wear down their teeth. Hay should be a major component of their diet.

Are these pellets suitable for young rabbits?

While suitable for young rabbits, monitor their intake and growth. Consider adding extra supplements and consulting a vet for advice specific to young rabbits.

Troubleshooting

Rabbit is not eating the pellets.

Try mixing the pellets with a small amount of familiar food. Ensure no other health issues exist and consult a veterinarian.

Soft stools or digestive upset.

Gradually introduce the pellets into the diet. Ensure fresh water is always available. If the problem persists, consult a vet.

Pests are getting into the feed bag.

Store the feed in a sealed container in a cool, dry place. Inspect the feed regularly for signs of infestation.
