FAQs

How much hay should I give my rabbit?

Rabbits should eat their own body size in hay every day. Provide a generous amount and replenish it daily.

Is this hay suitable for all rabbits?

Yes, Burgess Excel Long Stem Feeding Hay is suitable for rabbits of all breeds and ages.

How should I store the hay?

Store the hay in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Reseal the bag tightly after each use.

What are the benefits of long-stem hay?

Long stems encourage natural chewing, which helps with dental health, and provides emotional enrichment by stimulating foraging behavior.

Can I use this hay as the only food source?

No, Burgess Excel Long Stem Feeding Hay should be part of a balanced diet. Provide fresh water, vegetables, and a small amount of rabbit pellets.

How often should I replace the hay?

Replace the hay daily or as needed to ensure it remains fresh and appealing. Remove any soiled portions.

What if my rabbit doesn't like the hay?

Try introducing the hay gradually. Ensure it's fresh, and consider mixing it with other foods or offering it in a different way.

Is the hay dusty?

The hay is dust-extracted to minimize dust. However, some dust is normal. Ensure it's stored properly and not exposed to moisture.

Troubleshooting

Rabbit is not eating the hay.

Ensure the hay is fresh and of good quality. Try offering the hay in different ways (e.g., in a rack, mixed with other foods). Introduce the hay gradually if your rabbit is new to it.

Hay appears dusty.

Check the storage conditions. Make sure the hay is stored in a dry place. The dust content should be minimal due to the extraction process, but some dust is normal.

Rabbit seems uninterested in the hay.

Ensure your rabbit has no underlying health issues affecting its appetite. Mix the hay with a small amount of fresh, leafy greens to entice your rabbit.
