I'm thinking of changing up the feed program here. I love the Pfaus pellets, but they are pretty spendy.I will not buy the cheaper brands as I'm convinced that doing so, contributed to the loss of over 20 rabbits this winter. What I want to do is this. I have been adding greens to the feed program daily. We have grass, clover, alfalfa, dandelions, and many other options abundant here. I'm thinking of buying one bag each of Pfaus pellets, oats, wheat, barley, and mixing them. Then feed that along with their greens, and of course their daily handful of hay. I got some of those little rabbit salt wheels at the feed store. Some are white, some are reddish, and they are 29 cents. do the red ones have minerals? sometimes I buy the blocks that are about the size of a brick, and break them up. I also feed the buns bananas once or twice a month, and sometimes apples or carrots.
We are feeding 100 lbs of pellets per week, at 18 dollars plus tax per 50 lb bag. I'm trying to figure out a great feed program for the buns, and for my budget. I have unlimited access to greens, but I want to be sure they get their minerals etc. How much grass/greens to feed each day? How much pellet/grain mix? How much hay? Is hay necessary if you are feeding greens? :idea: Suggestions and ideas greatly appreciated.
