Rabbit "Vitamin"?

[Heritage Homestead]

Hey,
Real quick I was wondering what all you use as a sort of rabbit "vitamin". A sort of everyday thing to keep your rabbits healthy.
Thanks!

Good hay, fresh greens, grains, clean water, fresh air... and love of course!

Not the magic pill you were looking for, I know, but it seems to be working pretty well so far!

There is one other thing- I mix 1 cup of diatomaceous earth into every 50lbs of feed. If I have a "magic" something that would be it!

I agree with MamaSheepdog. Rabbits getting a varied and appropriate diet and good living conditions and care do not normally need a vitamin. If you are not feeding pellets, however, you do need to provide a trace mineral salt block.

Myself I use vitamins through my watering system periodically. There are several multi breed vitamin solubles that are all about the same. I use it when I feel my rabbits need a little extra to help get them over and through those stressful times without any problems. Before and after a trip to a show, weaning, times of extreme heat and whenever else one might be down.

I have occasionally used a B Complex on rabbits that are physically stressed== other than that, good, solid nutrition....

In high heat areas, I would recommend that a mineral block be available at all times ... not the white salt one, but the red one. Especially if they are getting a large feed of fresh greens daily
