Verm X?

Hi everyone

I have been doing a search on the internet for improving young bunnies gut flora, as I am taking on two new bunnies from a rescue in a couple of weeks.

It will naturally be a stressful transition for them and I want to make sure I cut an GI or stress problems down. Anyway........ I have just seen Verm X : http://www.viovet.co.uk/Verm-X_for_Rabbit_Small_Animals/c18936/

Trouble is, it has alfalfa which I don't like plus it has molasses which isn't ideal? I am familiar with all the other types of powdered pro biotic/ healthy gut flora products but I am not sure which is best.

What do you guys think or what do you give your buns?

I am hyper worried about them as I lost my last beautiful boy in the spring and I am desperate to keep these healthy and happy for as long as possible.
