Excellent! Healthy for your rabbits.

I have two healthy indoor rabbits. Alfalfa free pellets made of Timothy hay is the best for bunnies. Most pellet food out there has alfalfa in it or is made only with alfalfa! That is crazy because its not good for your bunnies especially adult bunnies! This is mostly the crap you will find on store shelves of popular pet store chains! This one by Kaytee is great and Oxbow Bene Terra organic is a good one as well. Sometimes there are farms out there too that sell alfalfa free pellets as well. If your bunny's poop is soft and extra stinky you are feeding to many veggies and not enough Timothy hay and Timothy based pellets like these. Remember that carrots are actually high in sugar so do not feed them daily to your bunny. Green carrot tops are a healthier option as well as a dark lettuce. I still only feed those a few times a week. Their primary diet should be Timothy hay and Timothy pellets if you want a healthy bunny with firm little poop pellets!

Excellent food, bunnies approved!

We have 2 rabbits that we have adopted and they can't get enough of this food. They were eating some food with little colored bits which is just not good for them. I bought a bag of this at a local store and switched them over slowly and now they can't get enough. This is just used for supplemental feeding as they are mostly on hay and veggies, but when they need a little more this is great food. NO alfalfa which was big for us and a very good ingredient list including timothy hay first. Will buy more on here as it is cheaper and bigger bags than in the store.

Rabbits eat it, so I guess its decent!

I feeling my 2 rabbits a premium blend and at some point they just seemed to be costing a small fortune feeding them. This one bag was the same cost as the 4lb bag. they seem to like it just the same. I am about to buy a second bag now!

Bun jumps in the bag when I open it to feed her. What more needs to be said.

This is the only type of pellets I feed my buns. A good pellet should contain at least 18% fiber. These pellets contain 20%. It should not contain more than 14% fiber and 1% fat. This product contains 13% protein and 1.5% fat. This product contains nutrients, vitamins and minerals that aren't always included in your buns diet. You don't want to purchase more than 6 weeks worth at a time as it can go bad. Pellets are extremely fattening and you should not feed more than the package says even though bun will beg for more. You do not want to feed your bun pellets that contain seeds or dried fruit. You don't want them to fill up on pellets or they won't eat enough hay. Hay should make up approx 80% of their diet, yet it seems to be their last choice for food. They tend to choose pellets first, then vegetables, then hay. Don't encourage poor health in your pet by feeding them incorrectly. My buns actually try to climb in the bag when I am feeding them this product. A note on the packaging, I have never been able to open the package properly and reseal it. I fold it over and seal it with a clip. This is not a reason to dislike the product.

Great product without extra bells and whistles!

Great quality, made in the USA (at least at the time of this review) and without any extra stuff. A while back we used to buy whatever products and did not care about the extra stuff (yogurt bits, dry fruit and etc.) it came with without realizing that we were actually not doing any favors to our rabbit. Years ago at one of the check ups, vet told us that the rabbit was gaining weight and it would be a good idea for us to switch off of Alpha Alpha products and with the least extra stuff possible. This is what we switched to and to this day keep on using it. The first rabbit did not like the new diet at first but grew (well actually lost weight, but grew) to like it! Current rabbit likes the diet and we complement these pellets with once a day fresh veggies, plus, some timothy hay. There is a similar product for Guinea Pigs that we are using as well...

I compared the ingredients t to Oxbow brand

I compared the ingredients with the Oxbow and it appears that they have the same or very similar ingredients. I've never had an issues with my rabbits eating this hay. They poop very good and this is something that is very important to people that really care for their bunnies. We are poop aficionados.

just a big beautiful boy, your rabbit should eat about 1-1

These are the only pellets my picky bunny will even touch and he's been eating them for years. I give him a quarter cup per day alongside unlimeted hay and two cups of fresh dark greens (he is a large rabbit, not fat at all, just a big beautiful boy, your rabbit should eat about 1-1.5 cups of greens per 6 pounds of body weight). I'm so glad that these are 100% alfalfa free because my poor baby is prone to bladder sludge if he gets too much calcium and I can feed these to him guilt/worry-free.

Great for grown bunnies

Pellets are usually a good part of a rabbits diet, but the main thing you need to remember is that most pellets contain high levels of afalfa, which is high in fat, and protein. Which is fine for small rabbits, but once they get to about 8 months to 1 year they should be moved to a primarily Timothy hay diet. Really I couldn't have asked for a better product.

Alfalfa-free= good for adults

We started using this food with our first bunn and had great results. We adopted our second bunn and immediately switched him over to this. His previous owner had meant well, but he had been eating an alfalfa-based pellet mix and large whole carrots daily, which resulted in him being a bit of a chunk, as well as some other problems like loose stool, abnormal urine, and some allergy problems like rhinitis. A combo of this food, hay, and free roam of the living room has him in pretty good health now. I'd recommend timothy-based pellets over alfalfa-based pellets for adult rabbits. Oxbow is another great brand, but Kaytee seems to be fine and is cheaper. We also supplement with veggies like cilantro and dark lettuces.

Rabbits love them so much, they think it's a bag of treats!

Not full of junk, and our rabbits think they're getting treats! After a long day of lounging about on the living room rug or exploring the kitchen for stray snacks, a couple of tablespoons of these take the edge off the inevitable return to the cage before the humans go to bed. We also will put these inside of boxes, plain brown paper lunch bags, or glue-free paper towel or toilet paper tubes, fold over the edges, and give them to the rabbits as toys. There's nothing like seeing a rabbit run around the living room carrying a lunch bag! We use about a half cup each day with our two rabbits (1/4 cup per day per rabbit), and the 9.5lb bag lasts us not quite two months. (The rest of the time, they get the appropriate greens and timothy hay. Lucky bunnies!)
