Vitamins and or supplements?

22 9:49:02

Question
Do you recommend any vitamins or supplements for rabbits maybe to boost the rabbit immune system?

Answer
I use a ten dollar vitamin supplement that is added to their water. I do recommend it especially if the rabbit is older, ill, nursing or pregnant.

The only thing you have to be cautious about is too much calcium because it can cause urinary problems.

Their diet however, if it is a broad range of veggies and fruit besides the pellets then they usually will get everything they need from a complete diet.

Rabbit.org has a great feeding guide at the House Rabbit Society.
