I hate feeding grain to my rabbits first of all because they are so wasteful with it. They spill more than they eat. I've always fed them the hard crusts from my home made whole wheat bread but that isn't a complete grain. I had the idea the other day of baking bread specially for them with half whole wheat flour and half whole grain wheat and barley. I also add some wheat germ to the mix. It doesn't rise as much as the usual bread so it makes for a heavy loaf. I slice it and then dry it before I feed it to them. That should give them complete grains and they love crunching on it and waste almost none of it. It's so hard it should also help keep their teeth worn down and satisfy their gnawing instinct.
Now a question. Their diet is almost completely grass and red clover. How often should I feed grain? What are the problems with over doing the grain?
