Burgess Excel Nuggets with Mint Adult Rabbit Food, 4 kg

Product Information

A rabbit diet that consists of nuggets, good quality feeding hay and the occasional treat should provide all the nutrients they need. But there are some foods and plants that should be avoided, including muesli, potatoes, cucumber, iceberg lettuce, whole carrots, avocado, beans and apple pips. The best way to ensure your rabbits get all the nutrition and fibre they need is by following the 5-step Excel Feeding Plan, developed in conjunction with one of the world’s leading small-animal vets. Analytical Constituents: Beneficial fibre 40%, Crude Protein 13%, Crude Fat 3%, Crude Fibre 19%, Crude Ash 7.5%, Calcium 0.8%, Phosphorus 0.5%, Sodium 0.17% Selective feeding is when rabbits eat the sugary and high starch elements of a muesli-style bunny food diet but leave behind the high fibre parts. This can lead to them developing all sorts of health issues including dental disease, obesity and problems with their digestion.

As well as providing essential fibre, feeding hay and fresh grass have an important role in helping wear down your rabbits’ continually growing teeth.If your bunnies do consume any of these foods, it’s important to seek veterinary advice. Are rabbits selective feeders? Vets recommend choosing a diet that can support your rabbit's dental, digestive and emotional help, and these Burgess Excel Adult Rabbit Nuggets with Mint have been tailored to do just that. The Excel Feeding Plan offers the ideal way to ensure your rabbit is getting everything it needs, including the right levels of nutrients and fibre.
