I recently noticed Belle's urine has been a milky yellow color and was reading up on if this was something to be concerned about. After doing some research I came to the conclusion that she has been getting to much calcium in her diet from some of the veggies I was feeding her so I started feeding less of those and watching when I feed them.
I also noticed a couple of days ago that she is on alfalfa pellets and not timothy. I went to buy some and the bin was empty so the associate filled it back up so i decided to read the label on the back to see the fiber amount and alfalfa was the first ingredient! The owner told me that the pellets in their bin that they sell for $1 per scoop was timothy. The pet store I buy my two rabbits pellets from is the same pet store I bought Sir William from that knows nothing about him. Go figure.
So after all that rambling my question is since I am not switching the brand of rabbit food but I am switching from alfalfa ti timothy should I still serve them a mixture of the two and introduce slowly? They were originally on the same brand rabbit food but timothy based and was suddenly switched unknowingly when I started buying out of the bins.
