  bought natural cereal grass for my son. but I’m not so sure, I want to consult with,( it consists of oat-barley-wheat seeds) it is also used in cats. this made me a little worried. their stomachs are not the same, do you think it’s bad for my rabbit?
  what do you think about barley straw?
  
  i bought it from barley straw because he doesn’t eat normal straw,
  he likes to eat oats and alfalfa, and I’m worried about oats

  Cereal grass is fine for buns!
  
  Barley straw is fine, but straw isn’t food. Hay is food, straw has very little nutritional value and is mostly used as bedding.
  
  Alfalfa is not good for adult buns because it has lots of protein and calcium. Its excellent for young buns up to 6-7 months of age.
  
  Oat hay is fine, but if there is lots of seed heads in it you should pick out some of them. You can use the seed heads sparingly as treats.
