Adult rabbits metabolize calcium differently, efficiently absorbing it and excreting excess through urine. Excess dietary calcium predisposes adults to painful, potentially fatal urinary bladder stones and kidney disease.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ3: How many Vitakraft Alfalfa Nibble Sticks should I feed my rabbit daily?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAns: For young rabbits under 7 months, feed 3-5 sticks daily.

It can cause blood sugar spikes, weight gain, and dental issues when overfed.

Alfalfa treats calcium problems for adults. For young rabbits, alfalfa offers beneficial nutrition; for adults, prioritize timothy hay-based treats instead.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ8: What should I do if my rabbit shows digestive upset after eating these treats?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eAns: Discontinue treats immediately and increase timothy hay intake.
