All rabbits need high fiber to keep their digestive systems working properly, plus basic vitamins and minerals to maximize their health. Essentials - Adult Rabbit Food combines needed fiber with stabilized nutrients to assure a well-balanced diet when served with Oxbow loose grass hays. Oxbow Animal Health’s founder and owner John Miller created the industry’s first timothy hay-based food for rabbits and other small herbivores, the basis of Essentials - Adult Rabbit Food.

Made from timothy grass meal, Essentials - Adult Rabbit is specifically designed to meet the particular nutritional needs of adult rabbits. Adult nutritional needs are lower than those of animals in the growth stage of life.

Rabbits are designed to eat and digest fiber found in plant material. Timothy grass hay provides the fiber necessary to maintain intestinal health, and makes Essentials - Adult Rabbit the veterinarian's number one choice for your adult rabbit.

• Timothy hay-based
• Optimum protein level
• Ideal diet for adult rabbits
• Recommended by veterinarians
• Balanced calcium to phosphorus ratio
• High fiber from quality digestible ingredients
• Fresh! Straight from the farm!

Always change your rabbit's food gradually to allow the digestive system time to adapt. Some rabbits are resistant to change, so time and patience are needed when switching feeds.

Veterinarians Agree!

When you are concerned about the health of your rabbit, choose Essentials - Adult Rabbit. Adult pet rabbits have different nutritional needs than baby bunnies. Feed them the original timothy hay-based pellet fresh from the farm!
