Comparing Pellet Brands

[Mac189]

I've been feeding my buns Oxbow since I got them and I'm really impressed with all Oxbow products, however, I recently saw a brand I'd never seen before, Science Selective, that was less expensive and seemed recommended by vets. Has anyone tried Science Selective and found that your rabbits enjoyed it/ were impressed by the health benefits? It sort of sounds too good to be true, but if it's not I'm certainly interested!

There are lines of Science Selective that have decent ingredients and ratios -- just as good as some of Oxbow's.

Thank you! maybe I'll try working up to a mix of the two, see if they still like it!

Yes. It's always a good idea to mix the two to transition.

My bunnies loved science selective and they come in larger size than oxbow. Make the bunny eat a bit slower but I feed my bunnies with a uk brand that have larger pellets now.

I’m scared of one of them choking after going through many choking hazards. So I wanted to find large pellets that weren’t sticks.

So oxbow is out from my list of pellets brands, they are the smallest pellets I have seen and my bunnies prefer the other pellets more

Good to know, I may grab a bag when I have a chance an see if they like it!

I use science selective as treats and will soon transition mine to them completely for her 1/4 intake. She loves them! I get her the grain free version.

I have my buns on this after switching from another food, they adore it especially when i had some herbs as treats sometimes They definitely preferred it and has all the right nutrients for them
