What kind of feed(s) does everyone use? How much protein? Do you use the same for youngsters as adults? Do you use any supplements?

The feed store owner buys a ton at a time for me and stores it in his warehouse.
All rabbits are fed this brand with alfalfa hay as a supplement. The hay is fed two to four times a week.

Is this what you use?:
"Top Show Family is a complete, 17% protein diet for lactating does, a starter diet for growing bunnies, or a maintenance diet for mature larger rabbit breeds."
I am thinking about switching feeds. I seem to having trouble getting the rabbits to become pregnant (they will breed but not conceive, and this is with 2 different bucks) and I have some youngsters I am raising for future breeders that aren't growing like I would like to see. I like the brand for the chickens (Wendland's, it is milled about not too from here) just doesn't seem to be working out for the rabbits. There is a Kent supplier about 45 minutes from me, and my husband drives out that way often for work so he could pick it up. I am not sure about the price yet, my phone isn't getting a signal for some reason this morning.
