Burns Real Food for Rabbits

Unlike dogs which have adapted markedly from their counterparts in the wild, pet rabbits have the same physiology as wild rabbits. Rabbits are designed to eat grass as their main source of food.

Grass has a low nutritional value and is high in fibre which means that rabbits must spend a long time each day grazing in order to meet their needs.

In the wild, the rabbit will spend several hours grazing, especially at dawn and dusk. Herbs, fruits and berries will form only a small part of the rabbit’s food intake.

Ideally, the diet of the pet rabbit should mimic that of the wild rabbit i.e. based on grass or hay which should always be available. This should be supplemented by vegetables, wild plants and herbs.
