I had a rescue juvenile that was about 8-9 weeks old when I got her [originally as a foster, I lated adopted Noodles :-)]. The first person who had saved her and had her for a week or so couldn't get her to eat much of anything except shredded carrots and water. [She had been taken from her mother way too young by an unscrupulous pet store owner to be sold as snake food :-(. She's such a gift from God now :-).] When I got her I was able to transition her over to BB 15/23 within about a week with a lot of loving care. I kept her on it [with an alfalfa.timothy hay mix and veggies] until she was roughly 6-7 months old. About a month after her spay I transitioned her to Bunny Basics T without any problems. She is sleek, active, alert, friendly and healthy.

Pros: good for rapidly growing juveniles

Cons: difficult to find

This food is great for rabbits under a year old. I used this food up until last fall when my youngest rabbit turned about one, then switched her to Oxbow Bunny Basics T (timothy) pellets. She did quite well on both types of the Oxbow pellets. I would highly recommend them to anyone with rabbits as this company seems to have very high quality foods.

Pros: Quality pellet food based on alfalfa

Cons: Usually have to order from the company

This product is good for baby and younger bunnies, as they need more calcium in their diets, due to growning bones and teeth. It is good for proper weight gain in baby and young rabbits, as well as those set heartlessly free out of doors, by uncaring owners. About half of the rabbits in our rescue have been set free in this manner. Many come in emaciated from this experience. It is great to watch them reach a healthy weight, and get a healthier coat, as well.

Pros: good for young bunnies and more

Cons: shipping is expensive

I feed this pellet to my foster babies and their mom. This is a high quality pellet from Oxbow, and like most Oxbow products, it comes to you fresh and sweet smelling. This is made from alfalfa, so it has more calories and protein than the timothy based pellets. It is an excellent choice for young rabbits and lactating moms who need extra calories for growth and milk production. These pellets may also be used under a vet's supervision for bunnies that are low in weight because of illness.

Do not feed this pellet to your adult companion bunnies. It is too high in calcium and calories for them. Use the Oxbow Bunny Basics T instead.

Pros: high protein, high calories for growing rabbits

Cons: too many calories and too much calcium for adult bunnies

I have one rabbit who recently lost quite a bit of weight. She had an abcess on her jaw and she didn't have an appetite. Now that she's had her molars removed she needs to gain some weight back. I feed her separately with 15/32. The other buns get Bunny Basics T.

Pros: Good for young rabbits and those who need to gain weight

Cons: Shouldn't be fed every day to adult rabbits
