What do you feed your show rabbits, or is is this an "ancient Chinese secret"?
I have Mana Pro I keep in the feeders and I give them a handful of T&A hay once a day.
Thanks. So Calf Mana is a good supplement to mix in with there main pellet. Haven't found any around here yet.tm_bunnyloft":23u7fbtd said:i give mine Manna Sho and hay. If they are lacking in condition then I will give them a teaspoon of calf manna with their pettlets. I also give a small handfull of hay every day with their meal.

After our conversation on feed and what you told me, we are feeding Manna Pro Sho and I think you are feeding Manna Pro Pro. I didn't see any "Sho" on the shelf @ TSC but they obviously have it in the back since we've gotten it at the local TSC. Also the Calf Manna, a Manna Pro product, is usually with the horse feeds at TSC. There are usually small bags on the shelf but I had to ask for and go into the back to get the 50 lb bag for the pigs. We feed it as a top dress for skin and hair with them but do not feel we need to add it for rabbits with the "Sho" rabbit feed. Questions? We'll see you Tuesday night or give me a call.

Calf Manna should not be mixed with their pellets, it should be fed separately or as a top dressing. Otherwise, the rabbits may start digging out the pellets to get to the Calf Manna and waste feed. I use this only for Nursing does, and I give only 1 TBLSP per rabbit, per day.

No fuss no muss is easier on the pocket book.

I'm starting to feel that way about every aspect of rabbit raising.
