HI,
I would be cautious with the amount of pellets. In my beggining days with a baby pygmy goat I had one die of bloat from ingesting too many rabbit pellets. She was being weaned and probably was really more greedy but I didn't think about the rabbit pellets being too much. I went out to check her at noon, she was fine. At 5 pm she was down with bloat and being a newby I didn't know what to do. On the way to the vet she died. So I am very leary on rabbit pellets. I do have rabbits and so I keep my pellets in a locked up area where my goats, the escape artists they are can not get into them in uncontrolled amounts! It still just scares me so I avoid goats and rabbit pellets.
