https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/clinical-questions/15557/bunnies-haylage Hi all, I&#39;ve a client with a 5 month old dwarf lop. I was explaining about diet and the need for hay etc. She asked could she feed haylage? I told her I&#39;d no clue but would find out. Any ideas? I suppose I may as well ask about silage too whilst we&#39;reen-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/92551?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 04 Jul 2013 22:50:42 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:606f0636-504c-4b72-91b1-5db7a21a00e0Michael Woodhouse<p>Once haylage or silage is exposed to air it starts deteriorating. If they have the stuff on site for a horse then it would be ok. No good opening a bale and using it over a year like you can with hay. </p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/92375?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 03 Jul 2013 21:48:44 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:3e27f93a-2846-4426-a571-0a7394cf3d06Lindsay Sissons<p>In a bad hay year when hay quality was poor I fed my rabbits on haylage - they loved it - body condition was good too and no ill-effects that I could see. I now feel that if you can only get poor quality hay, then good straw or haylage is a much better option.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/92372?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:59:17 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:c7634f2c-1ec5-4f22-b93b-37960e4f8e6fMiriam Lodewyks<p>Sounds like a good idea to me. Got to be better than muesli and pellets...?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/92370?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 03 Jul 2013 20:46:01 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:4efb0ab4-52dc-4ebd-8935-abedd2220e36Linda Filshie<p>I&#39;d probably highlight risks of poor quality silage or haylage i.e. listeriosis.
