So, I've been using Oxbow since the dawn of time. My pair (3 years, 8 months) get 1/4 cup of Oxbow adult and 1/8 cup of Oxbow young daily. I have tried using all adult, but they both have trouble keeping on weight and I find that the only way for them to stay at healthy (but still quite lean) is to give the small amount of alfalfa pellet daily. In addition, their coats have seemed much healthier after adding it. My 5 week old baby gets unlimited access to Purina Show, as that's what the breeder was feeding and I haven't begun the transition to Oxbow. However, after doing a bit of digging, I've discovered that Oxbow really doesn't have the best ratios? Many people recommend it, so I assumed it was okay back when I got my first rabbits. Does anyone have any suggestions for other high-quality pellets I can try? Cost isn't arbitrary, but I'm willing to pay extra for the health of my babies. I really want to try Living World Green, but I can't seem to find it in my country. I am highly considering Sherwood Forest, as I love the idea of a grain/soy free pellet as it really does line up with the diet of a wild rabbit better. I once bought a sample for my first rabbits, which we all loved for its quality, but I didn't feed it long enough to see any long term results. If anyone has any input or experience with any particular brand, it would be very helpful.
