@bunnyhouse, yeahh I was looking to see if they specified the kiln drying as well. But in trying to research that it seemed like any compressed pellet is kiln dried since it seems that heat is required for a part of the compression process. I could do amazon, going forward I might do that actually since that would be significantly easier than trying to lug home a 40lb bag. I’m at my mums for a month until I move into an apartment since I just moved back to Ottawa from Vancouver, so getting these at a hardware store was the best I could do in the immediate time. But yeah, if shipping isn’t too bad I think I’ll do amazon since I will not have a car after I move. Although there is a horse supply store somewhat nearby I want to check out. They’ll probably have the pellets, and hopefully some hay since Sully’s been spoiled by very fresh hay that the rabbit sanctuary in Vancouver sold and got in bulk from nearby farms.

@bam I would think so as well. Well, assuming that you’re also somewhere in North America. Either way, I think spruce and pine are the most common here too. Thank you, that is very good information to know. He has a regular open litter box so that is good. While I’m temporarily at my mum’s we’re both in the basement but it’s a pretty big room so I think it’ll be a good open space for ventilation. When I was trying to find information about this I read some stuff similar to what you’re saying about off-gassing but everything that mentioned it didn’t give that much information and was making me a bit paranoid, and confused :p

@magpie it’s the second day of using them and he seems fine. I think I can stop being paranoid now with that and thanks to everyone’s advice here :3
Yeah, he hasn’t been sneezing or having breathing problems. Seems as active as usual too. I’m gonna keep an eye on his eyes as well to make sure they don’t seem leaky or anything that might be a reaction.

Good info about allergies vs other signs of illness. Thank you bunfriend :3
