Burgess Excel Junior & Dwarf Rabbit Nuggets Mint 3kg
Overview
Burgess Excel Junior & Dwarf Rabbit Nuggets with Mint are designed for junior and dwarf rabbits from 1 week old. The mint-flavoured nuggets are made to be tasty, while the nugget format helps reduce selective feeding and keeps every mouthful consistent.
This high-fibre recipe is formulated with vets and nutritionists and is built to support growth and development. It combines extra protein with prebiotics, beneficial fibre, antioxidants such as vitamin E, and added vitamins and minerals to help keep rabbits in good condition as they grow.
It is a practical everyday option for young rabbits and dwarf rabbits where a hay-and-nugget approach is preferred over a muesli-style diet. Hay and/or fresh grass should always be available and should make up the majority of the diet, with fresh water available at all times.
