Anyone use heygates rabbit pellets?

my local farm shop sells it for £7.50 for 20kg

18% protein
16% fibre

I currently use Dodson and Horrell which is £9.90 for 20kg
17% protein
13% fibre

I know these pellets are not the best but its only 10% of their daily diet so i think they are fine and my rabbits are doing well on them.

It should be ok, as long as plenty of hay is provided and your rabbits are good hay eaters. The protein value is a little high though, compared to the percentage of fibre. :?
 
They are good and most rabbits love them
They contain a coccidistat which can be beneficial but some see as a problem..due to constantly feeding your bunnies a drug..even in a very small amount
I use them now and again as are good value..and if only 10% of diet the chemical shouldn't make a difference
