Pellet questions

Ruby is 9 weeks old tomorrow. I have had her for just over a week now and she has turned from a shy little critter to a cheeky bun who thinks she owns my whole bedroom.

I have been feeding her Oxbows Rabbit Pellets. They are the timothy version for adults. I understand that there is another one for youngsters however I can not get this from my vet who is the only place in Western Australia that I have found to sell Oxbows range of products. I would prefer to stay with this particular brand as well as I have heard only good things about it.

Now my main question is, should I be free-feeding her the pellets or restricting them to say half a cup a day (or less)? What are the requirements?
 
Cool that makes it easy. :) Thanks!

So at what age do I start to restrict them? I was also giving her a bit of lucerne chaff - which is basically chopped up lucerne hay. No grains or anything like that. Is this ok to continue giving her - and should it be restricted or not?
