Specification of rabbit food:

1. Hay Content:
   • High-quality grass hay, such as Timothy hay, should be the primary ingredient.
   • Hay provides essential fiber for digestive health and helps wear down rabbit’s teeth.
2. Pellets:
   • Balanced pellets containing essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals.
   • Look for pellets with a high fiber content (18-20% or more) and low protein levels (around 12-14%).
   • Avoid pellets with excessive amounts of fillers, seeds, or colored pieces.
3. Fresh Vegetables:
   • Include a variety of fresh, leafy greens like kale, romaine lettuce, and spinach.
   • Carrots, broccoli, and bell peppers can also be included in moderation.
   • Introduce new vegetables gradually to prevent digestive issues.

1. Fruits:
   • Limited amounts of fresh fruits as treats.
   • Apples, strawberries, and bananas are popular choices.
   • Avoid giving too many fruits due to their high sugar content.
2. Water:
   • Fresh, clean water should be available at all times.
   • Use a heavy, non-tip water bowl or a sipper bottle.
3. Avoid Harmful Foods:
   • Keep rabbits away from foods toxic to them, such as chocolate, onions, and iceberg lettuce.
4. Herbs:
   • Some rabbits enjoy fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, or mint.
   • Herbs can be given in moderation as part of their diet.
5. Protein Sources:
   • Limited protein sources, as rabbits do not require high levels.
   • Alfalfa hay can be given in small amounts, especially for young or pregnant rabbits.
6. Supplements:
   • Generally, a well-balanced rabbit diet does not require additional supplements.
   • If recommended by a vet, calcium supplements may be provided.
7. Avoid High-Calcium Pellets:
   • Avoid pellets with excessively high calcium content, as this can lead to health issues in adult rabbits.

1. High-Quality Ingredients:
   • Look for rabbit food made from high-quality ingredients without excessive fillers or additives.
2. Age-Specific Formulas:
   • Consider age-specific rabbit food formulas, especially for young, adult, or senior rabbits.
