Bunny Branola is a rabbit feed supplement that supports improved stress management, lustrous fur, and digestive and immune health for all pet and livestock rabbits.

It is also a rabbit conditioning supplement containing a combination of completely natural and healthful ingredients: grains, vegetables, seeds, and herbs.

One only needs to use small amounts of Bunny Branola (a teaspoon or tablespoon per day, depending on the rabbit) as a top dressing in order to promote health and a sleek, glossy coat, whether the rabbit is a long-wooled Angora or a short-furred Rex rabbit.

As a high-calorie energy source, Bunny Branola has the extra calories and nutrition rabbits need in winter. Your rabbit will stay warmer and happier during the cold months.

The seeds and fiber in the Branola require chewing, helping to keep your rabbit's teeth and digestion healthy. 

Rabbits do experience stress sometimes, and the herbs and nutrition in Bunny Branola help them feel calm and comforted. If your bunny is going to experience any of the following stressors, the Branola will help ease them through it.... 

• Cold weather
• Shedding coat
• Recent shear or wool harvest
• Pregnancy or milk production
• When travelling or making other adjustments
  
• Frightening encounters
• Rabbits not eating or losing flesh tone despite eating plenty

Other situations can create stress in a rabbit. Good nutrition produces a desirable and healthy physiological response to stress. This helps to minimize the drain on health that sometimes results from stress. (This statement doesn't include internal parasites, disease or injury, just the day-to-day stressful adjustments that rabbits frequently have to make, since they live with humans.)

Now any day is Taco Tuesday!

Just a Tablespoon...!

For an average-sized rabbit of 6 - 9 pounds, it only takes a tablespoon or so per day to make a big difference in nutritional quality, and therefore overall health and stamina!

1 tablespoon of Bunny Branola sits atop the rabbit's rations for the day in this 5.5-inch J-feeder.

General Directions for Feeding
Bunny Branola

Use Bunny Branola 4 different ways!

Amounts specified here are sufficient for an average-sized adult rabbit, roughly 6-9 pounds. 

1. Use as a stress reliever: Feed 1 tablespoon on top of pelleted rabbit feed every other day during situations stressful to the rabbit (see above).
   
   Give slightly more if it is cold or the rabbit has recently been shorn – the oils and extra calories help to raise the rabbit’s internal temperature.
   
   Give slightly more if the rabbit has begun to shed, along with a daily handful of grass hay. Extra fiber helps to keep any ingested hair moving through the digestive system, and the variety of ingredients may also help maintain healthy gut flora which will combat GI stasis from the start
   
   
2. Use as a show conditioner: Feed 1-3 teaspoons every day, for 2-3 weeks before a rabbit show
   
   
3. Use as a daily health enhancer: Feed 1/2 - 2 teaspoons every day or every other day to help support daily health, including immune, digestive and dental health. 
   
   
4. Use as an occasional rabbit treat: Give 1 teaspoon as a top dressing if there is no other treat during the day

Bunny Branola was specifically designed for angora rabbits, however normal-furred rabbits will absolutely also benefit from supplementation. 

If you are newly adding Branola to your rabbit's diet, it would be wise to keep a close eye on the rabbit's weight at first. This will help ensure that you are giving enough to benefit the rabbit but not so much that it will become overweight.

How Bunny Branola Came to Be

Milton, one of several Satin Angora test bunnies, dressed for Halloween.

Bunny Branola was originally developed by rabbit breeder Kim Martin, who raised Satin Angora rabbits for wool production, and American rabbits, a heritage breed.

Kim was looking for a way to feed flax and other rabbit super-foods to her rabbits, using natural ingredients instead of factory-made supplements. She went through several recipes, taking the time to find fully rabbit-safe ingredients, testing and verifying old wives' tales and facts with the help of a veterinarian.

Valuable information came from the most important rabbits in her barn, Ralph and Milton, her test-bunnies. If Ralph and Milton liked an ingredient or recipe, chances were good that all rabbits everywhere would also love the new Bunny Branola supplement. If Ralph and Milton's health and lustrous wool would bloom, then the health and condition of "anybunny" was attainable.

Ralph and Milton the test bunnies willingly chewed their way through multiple ingredients and each of the various recipe experiments. Their "opinions" and reactions were the stage I testing for all the research and development decisions.

Kim states, “It's thanks to Ralph and Milton the test bunnies that Bunny Branola has become a rabbit-favorite-food!”

Rabbit Breeder Opinion

Angora rabbits thrive on Branola supplementation

Besides testing Branola on her own rabbits, Kim gave out free samples to other rabbit breeders. Many of them immediately remarked, “I’d eat this stuff!” 

Of course, the rabbits dove into their feeders head first whenever the Branola was sprinkled over the feed, and the breeders begged Kim to officially market it.
