How to Feed Forages to Rabbits - Henlus - 08-03-2019
Forages, that is, legumes and grasses, can supply a major part of crude protein and fiber for rabbits. But they can't supply a major part of energy. So supplementing forages with energy sources like wheat offal and rice bran is good. High-starch feedstuffs like maize, roots, fruits should be fed in small quantities as too much is unhealthy for rabbits.
Forages can also be supplemented by protein sources like soybeans meal, groundnut cake, palm kernel cake etc.
