If you are feeding Selective Naturals Grain Free to your rabbits for the first time, make sure you change from one food to another, gradually over 10-14 days. At first, you should mix a small amount of Selective Naturals Grain Free with your rabbits’ current food, slowly decreasing the old diet, whilst gradually increasing the quantity of Selective Naturals Grain Free. A sudden change in diet can cause digestive upsets – even when you are changing to a better quality diet – so take care! With the potential for a less active lifestyle and without the need to expend extra energy on combating the effects of outdoor temperatures, some indoor rabbits can have a tendency to put on excess weight. To help keep them at their ideal weight and to ensure they always look their best, out House Rabbit food features high fibre (22% crude fibre), no added sugar and linseed for healthy skin and coat. The cut Timothy grass is then spread in the field up to six times over three days to accelerate the drying process and to help retain the highest levels of beneficial nutrients. 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.

If you are wondering how much hay a rabbit needs or how often you should feed your rabbit hay, the answer is to make sure that hay is always provided in unlimited amounts. As a guide, a rabbit will usually eat a ball of hay equivalent to his or her own body size (volume not weight!) per day. Why timothy hay is good for rabbits? Selective Naturals FibaFirst combines long chain fibre with essential vitamins and minerals to create a unique diet that caters for the natural feeding behaviour of rabbits. FibaFirst is rich in natural ingredients and is made in a simple and uncomplicated way. The average rabbit (weighing 2.5kg) will require 75g of Fibafirst per day (30g of food per kg of body weight per day), although because Fibafirst has a nutritional profile that is similar to hay, it may be fed freely, however weight should be monitored regularly. We would recommend feeding your rabbit their pet food twice a day – once in the morning and again in the evening. A small handful of suitable fresh vegetables should also be provided along with good quality hay and clean drinking water. Intended to be a complementary pairing to rabbits’ fresh hay diet, this nugget food helps provide necessary nutrients. Designed to prevent selective feeding, these nuggets ensure your rabbits eat everything they need, not just the sugary or starchy pieces.

The second most prominent part of their diet should be fresh greens and vegetables. “Leafy greens are all great,” explained one long-time rabbit owner we spoke to. “Things like fruits and even carrots are good but only in moderation, and avoid anything with seeds or pits.”

There are different types of hay and pellet bases available, but they’re not all equal in nutritional value. For example, alfalfa-based pellets have higher calories and lower fibre content. Instead, look for Timothy Hay, which has a healthy dose of the nutrients rabbits need.An adult rabbit has done its growing, but it still has dietary needs to maintain optimal health. These nuggets are an ideal balance of both digestible and indigestible fibre. The former provides your rabbits with essential nutrients, while the latter helps both with digestion and grinding down teeth.
