Rabbit Feed Performance Pellets is a high energy feed containing additional nutrients required for optimum reproduction, growth & appearance.

This ration may be fed as the sole ration or it may be fed with good quality legume hay or fresh grass. The feeding rates suggested below are based on the assumption that no hay or grass is used. If hay or grass is fed free choice, reduce the quantity of this ration fed daily to approximately 1/2 the amount recommended below, then adjust the feeding rate as necessary to maintain the desired condition of the rabbit.

DOES AND LITTERS: Limit feed to pregnant does to 3 to 5 ounces per day during the first two-thirds of their pregnancy to control weight gain. During the last third of pregnancy, gradually increase the quantity of feed to a level approaching free choice at kindling. Feed free choice to lactating does and their litters. Lactating does should consume 4 to 8 ounces per day depending upon their size and condition. The doe and her litter will consume considerably more as the bunnies mature.

DRY DOES, HERD BUCKS, AND PETS: Excessive weight gain in rabbits is one factor that affects health and fertility. Control excessive weight gains by limiting the feed to approximately 3 to 5 ounces per day. Adjust the feeding rate to maintain the desired weight.

WEANED BUNNIES: Litters should be weaned from the doe as soon as they are eating freely or as soon as the doe is without milk or is bred. For maximum weight gains, feed weaned bunnies Rabbit Star Performance Pellets free choice as the sole ration.

SOME IMPORTANT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES:

• Changes in feed should be made gradually. Sudden changes may make the rabbits sick or cause death. When changing from one feed to another, start by mixing 1/4 of the new feed with 3/4 of the old feed. Continue to mix the feeds over a five- to six-day period, gradually increasing the amount of the new feed until the rabbits are eating it entirely.

• Feed regularly. One, two, or three feedings per day may be used. The time of feeding each day is more important than the number of feedings. Since rabbits eat mostly at night, late afternoon or evening feeding is preferred.

• Provide plenty of fresh, clean, cool water at all times.

• Follow a strict sanitation and health program. Consult your local veterinarian or your Country Agricultural Extension Service for advice.

Feeding Instructions:

Top Of The Rockies Horse Cubes can be used effectively as the sole source of roughage for all classes of animals.  Horses that are fed alfalfa cubes tend to eat all the cubes provided, whereas horses fed long-stem alfalfa hay will sort through the hay and not eat the hay offered.  Research in Colorado reported that mature horses fed alfalfa cubes maintained their body weight better than horses fed equal amounts of long-stem hay.

Normally horses will eat between 1.5 to 2.5% of their body weight per day (this includes forage and grain).  Heavily lactating mares, intensively worked mature horses and younger weaned horses (4 to 18 months of age) can consume up to 3% of their body weight per day.  The amount may vary depending on the animal's needs and activity

Grains and/or supplements may be fed if necessary for a desired body condition but you will always want to provide plenty of clean fresh water.  The cubes may also be soaked for those animals that have dental issues or respiratory problems.
