LUCERNE HAY FOR RABBITS

FEEDING RABBITS LUCERNE HAY 

The rabbit should have unlimited access to premium hay in a hay bag or hay rack.

Hay is required by all rabbits. It provides fibre or roughage that they need to digest their food. They should never be without hay. Hanging the hay in a bag or rack ensures that it stays clean and also the 'plucking' of the hay from the holder is similar to how they rabbit picks long grass in the natural environment.

Nutritional Information about high quality premium lucerne hay

Like all Hays and other foods it should be fed according to a rabbit's individual dietary requirements. Buy premium leafy green Lucerne hay. It contains approximately 20% protein and is high in fibre. Lucerne hay contains essential vitamins and minerals for rabbit nutrition.

We use lucerne for rabbits that are underweight, pregnant, feeding babies, baby rabbit to one year, to tempt if appetite is jaded. Rescue rabbits often need building up so Lucerne can be a good first Hay for a rescue rabbit. 

If urine is cloudy or leaves a chalky mark on the floor then add in or change over gradually to a hay that contains less calcium eg Oat, barley, Rhodes grass, Timothy, rye etc. Hays are seasonal so it might mean choosing hays that are in season in your area.

Rabbit Ceramic Food and Water Bowls

Rabbits are very playful pets. They will quickly toss a plastic or tin dish and leave themselves without water or scatter their food everywhere.

We recommend the use of ceramic, straight sided food and water dishes for your pet rabbits.  These are available in pet stores or dollar shops. (Please buy from a pet shop that does NOT sell live animals.  Impulse buying of unweaned tiny baby bunnies is one of the main reasons for abandoned pet rabbits.

These bowls are cheap and last forever (unless dropped by the human). They are easy to clean.

Do not buy rabbit water bottles. They are dangerous. The metal can be sharp and cut the rabbit's tongue. They often fail to work and the rabbit dies of thirst.

Rabbit Calici Virus in Adelaide SA

With the 'accidental' release of a new strain of rabbit calicivirus by Australian government 'scientists' a vet recommends keeping pet rabbits indoors in their homes. He also says the virus can mutate to other species.
Read what the vet has to say.
Dr Peacock said about a dozen pet rabbits had been killed by the new strain across Adelaide and said a new vaccine was needed to protect them.
But Adelaide vet Dr Andrew Spanner said the available vaccine can provide limited protection against the new strain.
"With the presence of a new virus that we don't have an effective vaccine for and one which is unlikely to come in the near future, we're encouraging all rabbit owners to create an inside environment for their rabbits," he said.
"If we vaccinate every six months, we're still providing reasonable protection.
"There's no way that that protection is as good as it was for the original strain of the virus but there's still some cross-protection."
