Before You Feed

  • Feed NatureWise® Performance Rabbit Formula to herd bucks, dry does, pregnant does, does nursing young and young, developing rabbits.
  • The pellets may be self fed that is, kept before the animals at all times or hand fed. Self-feeding is recommended for does with litters to help reduce labor and achieve rapid growth. Self-feeding is also recommended for weaned bunnies.
  • If hand-feeding, the number of feedings per day is a matter of preference. It is important, though, to feed the animals the same number of times each day at approximately the same time.
  • Monitor body condition and adjust feeding rates to maintain desired body condition.
  • It is not necessary to feed hay with NatureWise® Performance Rabbit Formula. High quality hay may be fed, if desired. Hay must be fine-stemmed, leafy, green in color, well cured and free from mildew or mold. Alfalfa, clover, sweet clover, lespedeza, soybean and peanut hay are suitable. Cutting the hay into 3- to 4-inch lengths will help avoid waste.
  • Provide clean, fresh water at all times.
  • Provide salt blocks or salt spools at all times for rabbits who are primarily fed greens, with limited NatureWise® Performance Rabbit Formula. For rabbits fed a diet primarily consisting of NatureWise® Performance Rabbit Formula, additional salt is not necessary.
  • Keep rabbit hutches, feeders and waterers clean.
