Beyond The Pellet: Feeding Rabbits Naturally (The Urban Rabbit Project)

Love this book. Very knowledgeable.

If you want to know what kind of things to plant to provide a nutrient dense forage for your rabbits whether you're gathering yourself or have tractors, this is an incredible source. Information is given on protein amounts needed for each life stage, what plants/ hays to feed, what plants aren't safe. Fantastic book, a wealth of information, and a quick read. This book isn't going to break down the nutritional content of things, but does recommend a diverse diet to cover all bases.

This is helpful for especially beginners. But I learned a few things with it. Simple, easy to understand even for a tween.Definitely one to keep on hand for the “cheat sheet” of safe plants for rabbits.

This is a well worn book on how to feed your rabbits naturally. It gives lots of ideas.

Got this book because I want to add other foods for my rabbits full of great information.

Very good....04/04/24

Well Recommended for new beginner. And anyone wanting to feed more than just pellets

Everything I have seen, heard, or read says legumes and night shades are bad and to avoid the whole plant. The book contains lists that include the leaves of legumes and whole tomatoes as safe. Again this contrasts slot of other information. Short easy to read book but not sure I can trust it as a good pocket guide of what to feed rabbits in a pinch.

great book with lots of important info

You keep rabbits, whether for meat or as pets, pellets can go way beyond your affordable budgets and it could be so much easier and almost cost you next to nothing but a bit of time."Beyond The Pellet" gives you plenty of ideas how to grow and process your own rabbit food.

Love this author, he knows what works 'cause he's tried it. With this book I can easily achieve it too.

Very informative, learned lots of new info. Would recommend this to all new people starting out or for all owners for good reference.

Insightful book, however it's COMPLETELY written around rabbits being caged for meat, so the language is quite unpleasant in places for those looking to enrich the lives of their companion animals.Very little nutritional information besides 'it's natural' and 'I've had success therefore it's ok'. The whole book is written around creating nutritious meat for humans, and not necessarily giving buns a long life, so I'd questions whether a lot of the plants, or this diet at all, is ok to feed long term.It is ok as a starting point for further research, and maybe a single source if you're planning on raising your own meat. But if you're looking to create nutritious meals for your beloved pets, this very short (almost a blog post) book is best taken with a pinch of salt, and supplemented by extensive research elsewhere.
