Note:
Where it is favorable to use only one product over the whole rabbitry, the total dietary protein level can be best
managed by the use of variable roughages. e.g. to lower total dietary protein replace high protein roughage
(Lucerne) with a lower protein roughage (straw).
· Intake levels are intended as a guide only and will vary according to breed, size, age, feed availability
and environmental conditions, ensure that clean, cool water and effective fibre is available as per
requirements at all times.

· For commercial breeders / growers not using “off floor” housing, additives can be added to assist
against respiratory deceases , conditions apply. Contact mill for more details.
· Herbal Coccidiostat (Regano) used, no withholding period for meat consumption.
