The Best Healthy Rabbit Food And Treat Suggestions 

If you have kept rabbits as house pets or breeders, it is important to give the right diet and treats to your small pet that will keep them strong and healthy. There are so many types of food that rabbits can feed on but you should understand the nutritional requirements of the rabbits so that you provide the right food for them.

Manufactured rabbit pellets is another rabbit food suggestion. The pellets are bite-sized and made using ground hay, minerals, vitamins and other food components that are suited for rabbit’s food digestive system and are available in stores. The manufactured rabbit pellets should be fed to the rabbits twice a day. Colored, old and moldy rabbit pellets should not be fed to the rabbits.

The other type of food that should be fed to the rabbits are fresh vegetables and fruits. The green leafy plants such as romaine, endive, chervil, arugula, collard greens, and dandelion are great food suggestions for adult rabbits.
