This - Petsmart - is about the only place I can get bunny food (except for the bulk barn that sells pellets of unknown origin - I think they're corn based)
I can get 10 lb bags of Oxbow pellets from Montrealcritters but it costs about $17.99 + $9.99 shipping for an order. I see that some of you buy purina brand or other brands but I don't see any of those on the Petsmart.ca site. I used to feed the Nutriphase pellets which are alfalfa based (I removed the orange bits and fed them as treats only). But they eat a lot of Timothy hay and they only get about 1/4 cup of pellets per day each (split in 2 portions). Do any pellets on this page look okay to feed? The Oxbow is very expensive, it does last quite some time but I've already gone through 30 pounds since September - I'm looking for a more inexpensive alternative. The Oxbow 5 lb bag is pretty expensive too at $12.99 at Petsmart. I'm planning on maybe going to the store, but I always feel rushed cuz the kids are always running all over - this incluses the big kid I married - he's the worst.

Is anything on this site worth purchasing? - Should I switch brands? I still have about 20+ lbs left to go through before switching, but I thought I'd look into it. Could I feed the alfalfa brand since they get so little? I had a bag of alfalfa hay and they get a pinch as a treat once in a while - could I give them more without consiquence?
