What percentage of fat, fiber, etc needs to be in it?
Also, do you give unlimited hay?

I have had Jenson on it for about a week or so and I haven't notice anything bad. He is shedding a bit down by his tail, but it is the shedding time of year . If I notice him acting different, loosing weight, or shedding excessively...then I will just donate this bag to the Humane Society or find a 4her who wants it and go buy the purple bag for him (he was on that before) .Amy- How does the Fiber3 work for you? When I fed it it caused some major condition problems. I haven't tried the new formula, but I won a bag of it in a raffle two weeks ago. I'm just gonna put it in the raffle at our show this weekend since it's not what I use, but I was wondering how Jenson does on it?
Ah, okay. I just had my two champagnes on it as a test and they started losing weight, poss a fluke, but I'm not one to take chances- plus, why fix what's not broken, right? I still have about half a bag of it (plus the one I won) and I've been using it to make rabbit treats.I have had Jenson on it for about a week or so and I haven't notice anything bad.

What is your rabbits diet like other than pellets? I just got back a rabbit who had been on timothy pellets and I am really disappointed in her condition. Based on what I have now seen of timothy pellets, I would never recommend them to anyone.I no longer see a difference in feeding timothy or alfalfa based
Oxbow's 50 lb bags are ridiculous! The rabbit rescue has the same problem, mostly just dust. They feed Oxbow and Purina. I'm very thankful that we have a local farm supply store that sells 10 lb bags for $13. I totally get not wanting to pay that much money for a bag that's half dust. :grumpy:All I know is that I will not feed Oxbow again after these bags are gone - 1 bought one 50lbs bag for $65 (had to ship it in, can't get that big of a bag local and I refuse to pay $15 for 5lbs of it) and its mostly dust, then the other 50lbs bag of the alfalfa Oxbow was free from a friend who gave up her bunny...that bag is mostly dust, too. I guess Oxbow uses "the bottom of the barrel" for the 50lb bags and that is why they are dusty and the 5lb/10lb bags are not.
