Okay, I'm going to stick my foot in it here. :) Alfalfa, and most leguminous hays, are awesome powerhouses of nutrition. High in protein (some as low as 18%,...
I almost always take the stairs just because of this. I make a formula with feverfew and butterbur which takes the edge off of many of the migraines,...
I love the smell of peppermint oil, but alas, it doesn't help with the migraines. But unlike most other odors, it doesn't make me ill either. All I have to do...
I should have added here that the feverfew and butterbur actually prevent most of these types of migraines from occuring at all--a huge bonus, if you ask me. ...
Wow! You guys are making me think about the all timothy diets (with salads) I've been feeding my rabbits. I went to the feed store today to get alfalfa pellets...
I'm very interested in the information people are giving about how they feed their rabbits and the different experiences and results so I thought I would throw...
I also feed unlimited hay--makes for messy trays but I think it keeps the bunnies healthier. I feed either timothy, oatgrass, or mountain grass--whichever is...
... If you're going to feed large quantities of greens, dried ones are your best bet for not having digestive issues. Pam, do you have a link or a chart...
In addition to a pellet ration, I feed a grain/seed mixture and alfalfa hay
cubes. I have access to hay but prefer the pressed cubes for ease of
storage, lack...
I've had rabbits in my home since about 1988, but my contact with "rabbit people" had been exclusively with those who have pet rabbits. I also belong to a...
Dear Susan Just a word from New Zealand re feed The reason rabbit pellets were developed was that rabbits would pick at
their feed and eat only what they...
This is very interesting since people I know here are going in the direction of feeding mostly veggies on the theory that "real food" is better for them. My...
I am interested to note that some of my email content is missing. Some
paragraphs are missing for some reason. Below is the missing bits: "This pellet does...
Here is some thoughts further on this subject - they are purely my own
opinions so please don't anyone think I am attacking them. Sometimes I wonder about...
Something funny is going on here. Hopefully this goes thru again. Missing part of paragraph reads: "From time to time I have rabbits inside and these I will...

... The "rescue" point of view seems to ... meat or ... Rescuers seem to have a very poor sense of business, for starters. I constantly hear how we breeders...
Wow, we're really having fun now! :) :) Seriously, this is great. I am so sorry to hear that someone wound up loading SPCA and rescue with hundreds of purebred...
*We are HOBBIESTS.* YOU are a hobbist. Lets just make that point clear. I know for a fact that there have been commerical breeders on this listserv and...
I have read descriptions of rabbit digestion but you're putting it in a new light. Thanks. So what do you feed your rabbits? Are there pellet brands that are...
I don't know that rescue people think breeders are in it for the money. The people I know just see how many rabbits there are in the world who are abandoned...
That's so funny about the making money thing. When I first got into rabbits it was for my kids to do 4H. I fell madly in love with these little creatures and...
