Garvo 1025 Alfamax Rabbit
Breeders of pedigree rabbits make stringent demands on their animals; breeders want to have tiptop show condition and optimum fertility and growth. Not only heredity plays a role, but also many other factors contribute to the ultimate quality of rabbits. One of these factors is the right nutrition.
One kind of feed throughout the year
Garvo developed the 1025 alfamix rabbit for rabbits. Alfamix is a muesli. These feeds contain all important substances that rabbits need during the various phases of the year. You can choose one of these feeds, and give them all year round. After starting to feed your rabbits with alfamix rabbit the change in condition can be noticed in about 2 weeks.
There are many advantages to be gained from giving the same feed, especially to young rabbits. Young rabbits are vulnerable to outbreaks of coli or coccidiosis, but the risks can be limited if you don’t need to change their diet.
Complete Feed
A pellet usually consists of compressed small particles, but Alfamix rabbit contains coarse bits as gnawing and digesting these coarse corns corresponds with their natural background. Alfamix also contains oils. This mix of oils supports high fertility and fine quality of the fur.
As to the nutritious value, alfamix rabbit is a complete feed, which means that no supplements need be given. In fact, additional feed can even disturb the balance between the various nutrients. Additional portions of hay or carrots will not be necessary, but if you want to give them a treat we suggest restricting the portions to give full justice to alfamix rabbit.
Please note: the only thing rabbits need in addition to the mixed or pelleted feed is straw of good quality. Good straw provides the fibres they need.
Breeding Time
Breeding the rabbits that perfectly satisfy the standard of the breed starts with selecting the right doe with the right buck. When both animals are in a good and slim condition, we will see the best fertilization results. The mineral supply and the oils in the feeds support their hormone management. Indeed, a good fertilization is the basis for a good result.
If you give them alfamix rabbit and straw you must keep a tight rein on supplementary feed to maintain the right balance. Equally important is the quantity of feed at the end of gestation; increase the amount of alfamix with 30% starting ten days before kindling. This will give a nice litter with the right birth weight. Increase the quantity of feed also during lactation.
Young Rabbits
Young rabbits are vulnerable. They gradually build up their resistance against all kinds of diseases. The transition from milk to solid food, the weaning and perhaps the change of hutch will unsettle the bunnies’ digestive system. Alfamix rabbit maximally supports their digestive flora in a natural way. If combined with the well-balanced protein formula, this will ensure a smooth and gradual growth. It is hardly likely that the animals will get too fat with this composition. You can give your bunnies unlimited quantities of alfamix rabbit, at least in the first eight weeks. The feed provides the rabbits with all necessary nutrients for developing into a showpiece of their breed.
Showing Season
Feed has great impact on physical development. Alfamix rabbit contributes to a well-muscled rabbit with a slick and shiny fur … an excellent showing condition. Alfamix contains lecithin. This substance encourages excess energy to be used as heat and not as fat reserves in a large fold of skin or dewlap.
Moulting in rabbits will proceed quickest when there are sufficient materials available for the new fur to develop. With alfamix rabbit the moulting will pass almost without being noticed, but quickly and without problems.
Improved Alfamix
After one year of testing the composition of 1025 Alfamix rabbit has greatly improved. The latest research on digestion in rabbits has led to improved compositions which naturally provide maximum protection against common intestinal diseases. Besides optimal natural protection against intestinal diseases, alfamix rabbit now ensures improved optimal growth, especially in large breeds, without the animals gaining weight. Alfamix rabbit has also changed visually. The food is now less sticky and much brighter in colour. The new formulation naturally provides, with a combination of acids, herbs and yeast cultures, maximum protection against common intestinal diseases! The acids ensure that the causes of disease cannot multiply and the yeast cultures adhere to the coli bacteria so that they no longer can function and are easily evacuated from the body with the stools. The new formulations also provide for a better (faster) growth than before without the animals gaining weight.
