Hello cyberspace! Just wanted to give a quick shoutout to my new favorite feed for my Dwarf Hotots and Holland Lops: Purina Fiber3 pellets. If you have digestion problems, weight issues (over or under), and have trouble weaning kits from momma to pellets, give this low protein feed a try. You may have to order it from a feed store, but by golly it is worth every effort! I have had a 80% reduction in soft stool, my rabbits are still in good coat despite the heat (ok, Gerry and Cecila are molting messes, but they prefer their "numnum" Calf Manna over the Fiber3), and I haven't had any kits with soft stool---a major improvement! Hotot's constantly have digestion battles, and I've tried multiple feeds in the past with little success. My rabbits stay healthy, but their cages aren't the cleanest and when you raise white rabbits, cleanliness is key! Fiber 3 is worth the try, just saying!
*Carried at Clearbrook Feed and Supply in Clearbrook, VA and also in Berryville feed stores.

My daughter raises both Hollands and Dwarf Hotot's and French lops. We don't have as big a problem with Frenches as the smaller breeds. It was recommended by some friend to try the Fibre 3 for the entertis. I was wondering if you are still happy with it.
