I have been feeding Rascal Zupreem's Nature's Promise pellets... timothy as the main ingredient, no wheat, no soy, no pesticides. He has been doing wonderfully.
But it appears that the company has discontinued it in favor of their new Timothy Naturals food - which does have wheat and soy, and has some weasel-y wording about "tested and monitored for pesticides"
I am upset! I personally don't eat wheat or soy, and I don't really want Rascal eating them either. And I am worried about the change in wording about pesticides.
Here is the kicker - I ordered a 20lb bag from amazon.com of what I thought was the original variety (according to the title, description, and photo)- but they send the new one instead! As if it were the same thing!
Do any of you feed your buns this brand? Do you have any good/bad things to say about it? Should I just return the food and go for something else, or should I just deal with giving him the new food? Do you think corn (an ingredient in the original variety) is better or worse than wheat and soy for a rabbit?
I have had a heck of a time finding premium pellets without extra added unhealthy nonsense.
Here is the new food:
