Supreme Petfoods Science Selective Rabbit Food, 4 lb

Science Selective Pellets are the best pellets to feed your rabbits. They have everything a rabbit needs to be healthy and they really enjoy how they taste. Also, the extruded shape is helpful to prevent choking.

I’ve actually only used this food as treats for my bunnies since sweet things (carrots, fruit, etc) are not particularly great for their digestive systems. This is along with their daily serving of romaine, a bowl of kibble in the evening and unlimited timothy hay and water 24 hours a day (and also unlimited love and treatment suitable for members of a royal family–jealous they have a better life than my human family or so many people out there!). Typically, I’ll give a couple of these at a time throughout the day as “treats”. When I first introduced these, I would keep saying the word “treat”. Now, when I say “treat” they’ll come running at full speed for one or two of these pellets. Again, every-bunny I have ever had in our family has loved these. I’ve never tried this as a full serving for evening kibble, but I know a vet tech who has (I know they use multiple brands, so I don’t know if the rabbits who get these require a specific diet). I have always used a different brand for regular kibble. Also, these pellets are larger, so it’s easy to hand feed as treats. So it’s win/win. Happy bunnies and healthy treats! I’m sure my buns would have written a similar review, except they’d probably have asked why their human doesn’t feed them this food only. 🙂

I have to say, this stuff is like “crack” for bunnies!! While bunnies need to have a variety of foods in their diet and not too many pellets, the ones I was using were more alfalfa-based and these are timothy-based. The nuggets are a bit bigger so he can chase them around if we play “catch” (which is a challenge!). I have been tapering his pellet ration to just these and his poops stay normal solid. Some other pellets I looked at reviews for the users were talking about soft stool, but I have been using these over a month and don’t see that. They also have a few vitamins thrown in that are helpful to rabbits. It’s kind of funny they ask about Flavor in the review – I’m not going to eat them so I can’t say, but the bunny flings everything out of his bowl to get at them so that must say something! Besides these he gets the usual green leaf lettuce, cilantro and occasionally other low calcium greens. That is another thing I like about this as I have been trying to reduce his calcium output, and they try to regulate it in the food. He hasn’t had any issues but it was showing up in the litter box on occasion. Of course we all know we have to keep them munching on the hay for a variety of reasons and I figured these were an excuse to sneak more timothy into his diet! Once I decided I was going to keep him on them I took advantage of the fact they have been “on sale” to stock up. Note that Science Selective has several other varieties depending on the uniqueness of your bunny – mine is just about to be 2 and I figured it’s still a bit early for the “Adult” or “Senior” versions, but they are out there.

This is good food for our rabbit. It costs a bit more than some of the other options but our rabbit loves it and it seems to keep him happy and healthy. You will get some dust in the bottom of the bag after shipping but that is pretty hard to avoid.
