The short answer
Plain, age-appropriate, high-fibre pellets can complement unlimited hay in a measured amount.
Recommended amount
No universal serving is established; ask a rabbit-experienced veterinarian before routine feeding.
Suitable rabbit age
Best considered only after a young rabbit is established on hay and its normal diet; introduce one new food at a time.
Preparation
Wash well, identify correctly, serve plain and raw unless the guide specifically says otherwise, and introduce gradually.
Parts or forms to avoid
Avoid colourful muesli, seeds, nuts, dried fruit and pellets for other species.
Nutritional and feeding notes
Variety does not replace unlimited clean grass hay and fresh drinking water.
