    Transitioning to adult diet

    I was wondering when to start transitioning my bun to adult pellets? He’s nearly 5 months old and still on burgess excel junior pellets. I have the adult pellets ready to go to start the transition which apparently they can eat from 4 months old. Any help would be much appreciated :)

    Is small pet select worth it?

    I have two rabbits one which is a 5 pound dutch, and the other a 10 pound new Zealand. I've been trying to find ways to save money on hay, pellets, and litter. I spend about 15 dollars a week on hay for a 5 pound bag, the sad thing is most of it gets wasted and I feel like I could spread it to...

    Oxbow v. Vitakraft

    I've had my boys for a while now, and have made all of the new rabbit-dad mistakes. That being said, they used to be on Vitakraft Vita Prima adult rabbit food, but they've recently switched to Oxbow Garden Select Adult. They used to go CRAZY for the Vitakraft, but not so much for the Oxbow. I...

    Are these snacks actually good for buns?!

    I started giving my bun these about a month ago but had someone tell me that he shouldn’t be having them, but I cant trust the opinion of just one person. The internet gives me mixed thoughts, what do you guys think? He’s a Netherland Dwarf 5/6 months

    !HELP! bunnies no longer want hay

    Hi all! So one day, while I was out for the evening, my bunnies had managed to hop up to the top of their cage, where I had their food (treats, pellets, hay) stored and helped themselves to the pellets. It’s totally my fault for storing the food somewhere accessible to them but I didn’t...

    Freezing Food?

    So I’ve read something the other day about freezing rabbit food and bedding in prevention of living mites/ insects. Has anyone done this or recommend this? If so, for how long? *I’m not having a mite issue or see signs of my rabbit scratching, I’m just wondering if it’s beneficial Thank you!

    Hay Brand

    Has anyone ever ordered from Small Pet Select? I was considering their Timothy hay since I hear such good reviews. I’m currently using oxbow but it’s usually a hit or miss with their quality (with the hay I’m receiving at least) Rabbit Products

I know this is too young but the guy I bought them from told me they were eating pellets and didn’t need milk anymore and I trusted him. Will they be okay on pellets and...

    Type of hay for Rabbits

    I had read very clearly they should be eating Timothy hay from Oxbow, which they ate okay, but my Lionhead mix (snowball)didn't eat it as much as the Lop(thelma). I switched to a Timothy meadow hay from Oxbow and they both eat it like crazy. I know Alfalfa is a no, but is this kind good...
