Supreme Petfoods Science Selective Timothy Hay 2kg, natural

Product Information

An adult rabbit has done its growing, but it still has dietary needs to maintain optimal health. These nuggets are an ideal balance of both digestible and indigestible fibre. The former provides your rabbits with essential nutrients, while the latter helps both with digestion and grinding down teeth. Here at The Pet Express we want you to enjoy every time you shop with us. Occasionally we know you may want to return items, we have tried to make our terms as clear as possible to avoid any nasty surprises.

The base of the mixture is Timothy Hay, which is a great source of fibre. It also includes dandelion, which helps maintain urinary tract health, and marigold, which helps strengthen the immune system. The one-kilogram bag of hay is compressed and expands as much as eight times its compressed size. If you are wondering how much hay a rabbit needs or how often you should feed your rabbit hay, the answer is to make sure that hay is always provided in unlimited amounts. As a guide, a rabbit will usually eat a ball of hay equivalent to his or her own body size (volume not weight!) per day. Why timothy hay is good for rabbits? Young rabbits need food that can meet the nutritional needs of their growing bodies. This junior rabbit food contains all-natural ingredients that mimic a rabbit’s natural diet, with no added sugars and a low caloric count. It’s also fortified with the extra ingredients that a growing bunny will need. When it comes to deciding what to feed rabbits, hay is absolutely essential. It is a daily essential for all small herbivores – rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas and degus. Rabbits need hay every day to provide them with enough fibre. Science Selective Timothy hay is a good all-around choice for unlimited offering to your rabbit. Timothy hay is a mix of leaves and stems from Timothy grass, which is a perennial bunch of grass. If you are feeding Selective Naturals Grain Free to your rabbits for the first time, make sure you change from one food to another, gradually over 10-14 days. At first, you should mix a small amount of Selective Naturals Grain Free with your rabbits’ current food, slowly decreasing the old diet, whilst gradually increasing the quantity of Selective Naturals Grain Free. A sudden change in diet can cause digestive upsets – even when you are changing to a better quality diet – so take care!Hay and grass are important not only for rabbits’ nutrition but also for their teeth. Since rabbits’ teeth continue to grow throughout their lives, chewing on fibres such as grass and hay helps to grind them down. That said, remember that freshly cut grass is toxic for rabbits. Pellets are such s tiny part of the diet (just one tablespoon a day) but overfeeding pellets and not filtering their drinking water is where they get most of their calcium from so it’s best to watch the quantity of pellets you feed and filter water to control their calcium intake. Choosing a low calcium pellet can help. Science Selective Timothy Hay is superior to other hay available. There are no less than six processes involved to retain the finest quality, so that the tasty long stems remain intact and are bursting with all the nutrients that small pets love.

The second most prominent part of their diet should be fresh greens and vegetables. “Leafy greens are all great,” explained one long-time rabbit owner we spoke to. “Things like fruits and even carrots are good but only in moderation, and avoid anything with seeds or pits.”

Along with the essential vitamins and minerals, the nuggets have amino acids, linseed and spinach. The nuggets combine ingredients into a single component, which prevents young rabbits from developing the habit of selective feeding. Along with young rabbits, this food is also suitable for dogs that are either pregnant or lactating. With the potential for a less active lifestyle and without the need to expend extra energy on combating the effects of outdoor temperatures, some indoor rabbits can have a tendency to put on excess weight. To help keep them at their ideal weight and to ensure they always look their best, out House Rabbit food features high fibre (22% crude fibre), no added sugar and linseed for healthy skin and coat.

High-quality hay is the cornerstone of a rabbit’s healthy diet. It’s imperative for everything from proper digestion to proper tooth wear. Rabbits are meant to eat, as a minimum, their body size in hay on a daily basis. With that said, this feeding hay absolutely meets your rabbits’ needs.

Selective Timothy Hay comes from the first cut of the year, fresh from the fields. It’s harvested from carefully chosen Timothy grass that produces the largest, tastiest seed heads and is one of the best hays to feed rabbits. And don’t forget fresh hay and water! Your rabbits should have an unlimited supply of both at all times. Harrington’s are sunflower extract based, with wheatfeed a second ingredient and grass as a third ingredient. The average rabbit (weighing 2.5kg) will require 75g of Fibafirst per day (30g of food per kg of body weight per day), although because Fibafirst has a nutritional profile that is similar to hay, it may be fed freely, however weight should be monitored regularly. We would recommend feeding your rabbit their pet food twice a day – once in the morning and again in the evening. A small handful of suitable fresh vegetables should also be provided along with good quality hay and clean drinking water. There are different types of hay and pellet bases available, but they’re not all equal in nutritional value. For example, alfalfa-based pellets have higher calories and lower fibre content. Instead, look for Timothy Hay, which has a healthy dose of the nutrients rabbits need.It’s always reassuring to know where your food comes from, and even better when it’s from a local source. Now, you can be equally reassured about your rabbits’ food. Supreme Selective provides high-quality Timothy Hay and grasses grown here in the UK. The cut Timothy grass is then spread in the field up to six times over three days to accelerate the drying process and to help retain the highest levels of beneficial nutrients.
