  Hi! I am new to Rabbit Care I don’t have one yet but I will get one, right now I have 2 hamsters. What type of rabbit food should I get? I have heard good things about the Supreme Hazel Hamster for hamsters, but what about Supreme Russel Rabbit for Rabbits?

  I just looked that up and I don’t recommend that – it has those bits and pieces that aren’t good for rabbits.
  
  A favorite on the board is Oxbow – any of their rabbit food but the Basics is what most members use.
  
  I also like American Pet Diner.

  Welcome to BB!
  
  You want a plain pellet. Mixes with seeds and other stuff are really bad for rabbits.
  
  Some good options for adult rabbits are:
  Oxbow Essentials Adult, Oxbow BeneTera, Kaytee Timothy Complete Adult, Kaytee Forti-Diet Pro Health Adult, Sweet Meadow Timothy Pellets, Zupreem Timothy Naturals, and Zupreem Nature’s Promise.
  
  These fall a little outside of the recommendations but are still good:
  Oxbow Natural Science, American Pet Diner Timmy Rabbit, Purina Fiber3 Rabbit Chow, and Sherwood Maintenance.

  Hello,
  I agree with MoveDiagonally, plain pellets are best. My bunny is happy with any basic brand from Walmart or any pet supply store. A good quality hay in unlimited amounts should always be available so you will only need a couple of handfuls of pellets a day to supplement with the hay if you want to feed pellets.

  I use Kaytee Timothy Complete Adult because my bunny is 2 years old. I believe it will depend on whether or not you adopt a baby or an adult regarding what food you want to give him/her. There is alfalfa pellets for babies.
