hi

russell bedding straw is nice and soft, unlike most straw, so that's fine - and they can eat it but there's no nutrition in it - they need hay for that :)
 
thats good then it does say on the front of the bag extremly soft so its ok then i put some hay in the bedroom aswell and they were munching on that there all sooo cute then the dog went and scared them so they ran lol
 
straw is good for rabbits who have behaviour problems sometimes. i reason why some bunnies have behaviour probs is because they are bored and the straw takes them longer to eat!

hay is better for them though!
