Bunny’s Best Bites

Hay is the most important component of a rabbit’s diet. Bunny’s Best Bites  is a custom blend of Oregon hays. Rabbit Advocate volunteers select the hay and hand-mix each bag to provide your rabbit with a nutritional and tasty culinary experience and to provide you with an easy and economical way to please your bunny and keep him healthy.

Rabbit Advocates are pleased to offer you and your rabbit this specially formulated variety of quality hays.

  • Timothy Hay 50%
  • Orchard Grass 25%
  • Oat 12.5%
  • Fescue / Rye 12.5%

All profits benefit the Rabbit Advocates Medical Assistance Fund. The fund is used to provide medical care, spays, and neuters
for needy rabbits.



Hay in the Rabbit’s Diet

Timothy or other grass should be available at all times. Hay is an important part of your rabbit's diet. The high fiber content of hay promotes a healthy bowel, while the chewing action helps keep teeth from growing too long. Alfalfa hay is too high in protein for adult rabbits and leads to obesity and bowel upset. Hay can be purchased from Rabbit Advocates, feed stores, pet stores or local farmers. Do not store hay in an airtight container. Always check for mold or insects before feeding.
