wood pellets for litter

[alexandra the great]

I'm not too well versed in litters you can use for rabbits. I know that wooden pellets are an option. Would these wooden pellets be a good option for a rabbit?

Wood pellet fuel is environmentally-friendly and produces very little ash or smoke, leaving you with a just clean burning fire.

They're advertised as 100% natural. Obviously not advertised for use in rabbit litter boxes so there's no information on that.

Those are perfect. Remember they expand so very little is needed.

We use wood pellets. If you live in the USA we get the pellets at farm and horse type stores. Tractor Supply is where I usually purchase them. For a long time I was using it wrong. You just want to lightly line the pan with pellets, add water and see if you are happy. At our store they seem to have 2 different manufacturers and one was light and the other dark but they were wood pellets.

I definitly can say that wood stove pellets under a top layer of hay were a game changer with my indoor rabbits.

No need to add water to the pellets. They will break down when the rabbit pees on them.

We use wood pellets in the bottom of our litter boxes and cover them with a layer of kiln-dried wood shavings. Each day we cover the fresh bunny-berries with more shavings.

For some of the rabbits we cover the pellets with hay; however, urine-soaked hay generates its own stink and we need to dump these boxes more frequently.

Kiln-dried shavings are safe for rabbits because the detrimental aromas have been cooked out of them.
