I have a cockatiel and I am looking into adopting rabbits from the local shelter but, I want to clear up a few concerns before hand:
My cockatiel is on a pelleted diet - often he throws some of the pellets into the floor. I would like to turn my rabbits into house bunnies. If a rabbit got any of the bird pellets, would it make them sick?
I know seeds are a no-no, so after seed I will have to vacuum, but pellets are what I leave available for the bird all day so he can eat as he likes. I can limit this to an off-limits area for the bunnies if I have to, just curious about how dangerous the bird pellets are for rabbits.
Ingredients are:
Ingredients: Ground Corn, Soybean Meal, Cracked Wheat, Wheat Germ Meal, Vegetable Oil, Sucrose, Dicalcium Phosphate, Calcium Carbonate, Iodized Salt, DL-Methionine, Choline Chloride, Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Natural Mixed Tocopherols, Rosemary Extract, Citric Acid,Natural and Artificial colors, Artificial Flavors, Zinc Oxide, Copper Sulfate, Manganous Oxide, Calcium Iodate, Sodium Selenite, Vitamin A Supplement, Vitamin E Supplement, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin K Supplement, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Thiamine, Niacin, Calcium Pantothenate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin, Folic Acid, Biotin
