Essentials Young Rabbit Food - 5 lb

My baby lion head can't stop eating this fast enough and has excellent health because of it. It is reasonably, priced and healthy and perfect for your growing rabbit. The food doesn't smell and comes in a fresh easy to seal bag.

As a longtime rabbit owner and small animal enthusiast, I've gone through several brands of pellets over the years, and Oxbow Essentials Adult Rabbit Food continues to stand out as one of the best. If you're serious about your rabbit’s long-term health and well-being, this is a product worth considering. ✅ High-Quality Ingredients & Nutrition The first thing I look for in rabbit food is whether it’s based on timothy hay, which adult rabbits need for optimal digestion. Oxbow delivers here—this formula is high in fiber, which supports healthy gut motility and helps prevent GI stasis (a common concern for rabbit owners). Unlike cheaper brands that add sugary fillers or too many high-calorie ingredients, Oxbow keeps it clean, simple, and species-appropriate. It also includes essential vitamins and minerals, which are great for coat health, immune support, and overall vitality. 🐇 My Rabbit’s Reaction My rabbit took to this food immediately—no transition issues or hesitation. He eagerly eats his measured portion every day and still maintains a strong appetite for hay, which is crucial. His coat is shiny, his droppings are healthy and well-formed, and his energy levels are great. 📦 Packaging & Freshness The 10 lb. bag is resealable and easy to store, and the pellets arrive fresh with no signs of dust or spoilage. I appreciate that it’s made in the USA, which gives me more confidence in quality control and sourcing. 🌿 What I Like Most Made with timothy hay as the primary ingredient Veterinarian-recommended formula No added sugars, artificial preservatives, or mystery ingredients Pellet size is appropriate—not too large or small Excellent balance between quality and price per pound 🔍 Final Thoughts If you're looking for a nutritionally complete and rabbit-appropriate pellet that promotes long-term health, Oxbow Essentials is a top-tier choice. I've trusted this brand for years and continue to recommend it to both new and experienced rabbit owners. A staple in my rabbit’s diet—and one I’m happy to keep repurchasing.

“Great quality” I feel good knowing that my bunny is getting healthy bunny pellets and he loves them. Love Oxbow products!

My bunny was on this until I made the switch to the adult. The quality is great and she has had zero tummy issues with this brand. It smells like hay which I love LOL. I’ve only received one bag in a year that wasn’t as fresh as the others and it was an easy exchange. Will buy this brand forever! Photo of my bunny for fun.

Always the only recommended dry food by rabbit rescuers and professionals. Keeps our bunny’s happy, healthy, and living long lives.

Great healthy dog food for the price. Love the raw coating and low temp cooking of the food. Dogs love it.

The product was great but the delivery was very poor. The delivery person ripped off the bag and some pellets came off. Amazon, please hire better people to deliver. We are paying money for our service. Thanks.

This is the best rabbit food. Good quality and amount for the price. Our rabbits have lived and thrived on this for many years.

Good

Nice

So some people may complain that their bunnies don't want to eat it, that's probably because if they're used to eating the equivalent of 'junk food' they won't want to switch over to something healthy that probably doesn't taste as good. I experienced this, you can either give them as much hay as they want and wait until they start picking at the pellets and learn to love them, or (they should always have fresh hay) give them less and less of their old food, so when they're hungry they'll eat the new food. Mixing it doesn't tend to work as they can easily pick out the food they want. This is one of the best quality bunny foods out there, another high quality one being the adult version of this bunny food (it switches out the tastier alfalfa hay for timothy. It has high protein and high fibre (22%!) most other brands aren't close to this percent of fibre, which is very important for keeping their sensitive gut moving.

Me estuve informando sobre diferentes tipos de comidas para conejos, después de preguntar a mi veterinario me recomendó varias marcas entre las cuales se encontraba está "Oxbow", sin duda ha sido un acierto total, a mis conejos les encanta y al mismo tiempo es un alimento sano y equilibrado. Sin duda la mejor opción.
