Brand name ‘Bonanza’ pellets

[PickyPenny]

Hi so Penny ran out of the pellets that was given to us by her former owner. Which were just plain pellets, no ‘treats’ or anything. I couldn’t find any stores around our area that sells Oxbow Timothy based pellets. So my brother bought a bag of pellets. The brand is called Bonanza. The name of it is called Gourmet Diet High fiber Alfalfa & Timothy Hay Formula ~No Artificial colors~

I saw some corn cobs in there and was a little hesitant about giving it to her. She already a a corn cob my brother gave her. But I have the bag now and refuse to give her any before it’s checked. So have anyone tried this kind of “pellets” and how’d it go? Would you recommend it?

If it isn’t a plain pellet, I would not give it to her. Plain pellets only, no added seeds, nuts, corn, peas etc. And take away the corn cob too, corn is not at all good for bunnies.

I have to agree with Monkeybun –

lol, don’t get upset because that wasn’t the answer you were expecting. You asked a question, they gave a valid answer…. looks like the pellets your brother picked up for you are junk food.

This might help though…. the list of ingredients and guaranteed analysis. Someone with more bunny knowledge can tell you if it’s suitable for your rabbit until you can order some oxbow pellets through this site.
