At Burgess, we know that there is a lot of choice when it comes to commercial rabbit nuggets and food pellets. We also know how important it is that your rabbits have a diet full of nutrients, vitamins and minerals that aid their diet, and keep them happy and healthy. This is why we are dedicated to researching ingredients that support a good diet, to help ensure that Burgess rabbit nuggets are not only tasty but can positively impact your buns’ lives.
Such is our dedication to bunnies that, in collaboration with charities such as the RSPCA, PDSA and RWAF, we established Rabbit Awareness Week (RAW) back in 2006. RAW brings together retailers, vets and charities to encourage the right rabbit diet, health and environment in order to improve rabbit wellbeing. It also aims to educate owners on the need for companionship and risks related to inadequate accommodation and diet.

Although indoor rabbits may be more used to the living room carpet than the great outdoors, they still need a diet full of the helpful nutrients they would find by grazing outside.
According to the RWAF, “rabbits need a diet based on 85% grass or feeding hay, 10% greens and 5% good quality nuggets. Providing food that mimics what rabbits would eat in the wild is vital and can be inexpensive and even fun.” Nuggets help to provide the nutrients needed for a healthy lifestyle, and RWAF suggest that good quality nuggets should be high in fibre and contain less than 15% protein.
At Burgess Pet Care, our adult and mature range not only meets these requirements, but also contains other great ingredients that support rabbits. For example, natural prebiotics help develop young digestive systems and keep mature ones functioning correctly.
Our nuggets also prevent selective feeding – a common issue with muesli style food. Selective feeding is where rabbits can select the bits of the food they like the most, leaving the more nutritious parts. This can be a great danger to their health. Therefore, a tasty and healthy nugget – such as those found in our range – is a safer choice.
If you’re at all unsure about the best way of feeding your animal or have any concerns about specific nutritional requirements at different times of their life, ask your local veterinary practice for advice.

If your rabbits are currently eating a muesli diet, we recommend gradually switching them onto a hay and nugget-based diet over a period of between 14 and 28 days. You can do this by gradually reducing the amount of muesli and increasing the proportion of nuggets until you have fully replaced the mix.
Please follow the portion size guidelines on the product packaging, and continuously monitor your rabbits’ weight to ensure a healthy weight. Along with feeding hay and rabbit pellets, ensure that fresh, clean water is always available too.
Foods you shouldn’t feed your rabbit include: Autumn crocus; Begonia; Black nightshade; Busy lizzie; Buttercup; Carnation; Chrysanthemum; Clematis; Cowslip; Geranium; Hemlock; Laburnum; Mistletoe; Poison ivy; Poppy; Tomato leaves; Rhubarb; Yucca.
Other foods your buns shouldn’t eat include: Cheese; Butter; Yoghurt; Chocolate; Pasta; Bread; Meat.
