How Niblee™ Is Designed to Be Fed

Niblee™ Rabbit Feed is formulated as a primary, nutritionally complete pellet designed to be safely consumed throughout the day as part of a hay based diet. It supports steady gut motility, balanced cecal fermentation, dental wear, and long term digestive stability without requiring strict pellet restriction.

Rabbits are continuous grazers, and their digestive system performs best when fiber intake is consistent rather than delivered in large, infrequent meals.

How Rabbits Are Designed to Eat

Rabbits are continuous foragers and hindgut fermenters adapted to consume large volumes of long-strand, structural fiber throughout the day. Their digestive system is built around constant chewing, steady gut movement, and tightly regulated cecal fermentation.

Their digestive system depends on:

• continuous intake of long-strand fiber

• strong chewing activity for dental wear

• steady gut motility driven by fiber bulk

• controlled cecal fermentation speed

• stable calcium and phosphorus handling

Rabbits are especially sensitive to gaps in intake. Even short interruptions in fiber consumption can slow gut motility and increase the risk of cecal imbalance or gastrointestinal stasis.

Feeds that rely on strict restriction to prevent digestive upset are compensating for formulation weaknesses. Niblee™ was engineered to support natural, continuous intake without requiring artificial limits.

Role of Niblee™ in the Diet

Niblee™ pellets are designed to serve as the nutritional foundation of the rabbit diet, providing:

• structurally supportive fiber to reinforce gut motility

• consistent chewing resistance to support dental health

• balanced protein and amino acids without excess energy

• corrected calcium-to-phosphorus ratios for urinary health

• targeted vitamins and trace minerals

• gut and immune system support

Free-choice hay should always be available to support natural foraging behavior and additional chewing. When paired with unlimited hay, Niblee™ pellets do not need to be tightly restricted to protect digestion, because the formula is built to ferment predictably and support long-term stability.

Free-Choice Feeding Approach

Niblee™ Rabbit Feed is formulated as a primary, nutritionally complete pellet designed to be safely consumed throughout the day as part of a hay based diet. It supports steady gut motility, balanced cecal fermentation, dental wear, and long term digestive stability without requiring strict pellet restriction. Rabbits are continuous grazers, and their digestive system performs best when fiber intake is consistent rather than delivered in large, infrequent meals.

Approximate Intake Observation

When fed free choice alongside unlimited hay, most adult rabbits naturally consume a steady, moderate amount of pellets throughout the day rather than eating in large meals. Typical self regulated intake commonly ranges from about 1/4 to 1/2 cup per adult rabbit per day, depending on body size, activity level, and life stage.Individual intake will vary. Healthy consumption appears gradual and consistent across the day, not rushed or concentrated into short feeding periods. Body condition, stool quality, and appetite consistency are better indicators than exact measurements.

LIFE STAGE CONSIDERATIONS

• Growing, breeding, or highly active rabbits may consume more

• Seniors or less active rabbits may consume less

• Rabbits recovering from illness, dental issues, or stress may show temporary changes in intake

• Monitor body condition and fecal output rather than chasing exact measurements

Clean, fresh water must always be available.

IMPORTANT FEEDING NOTES

• Niblee™ does not require strict pellet restriction under normal conditions

• Unlimited long-strand hay should always be available to support gut motility

• Avoid mixing with sugary treats, cereal grains, or starch-heavy supplements

• Sudden feed interruptions increase the risk of slowed gut motility and cecal imbalance

• Transition gradually over 7–10 days when changing diets

FINAL NOTE

Niblee™ was formulated to support the rabbit’s natural design as a continuous forager, allowing animals to eat naturally, freely, and consistently without digestive stress.

Feed freely. Feed confidently.
