Corn
whole kernel
<what is >
Pros
Cheap, fast weight gain in grow outs.
Cons
May kill your rabbits but acute onset bloat and GI statis. Whole corn is mostly Carbs, which will add fat not muscle. Rabbits can not digest the Hulls so it will create inflammation and damage to the intestines .
nutrient break down

Corn Bran
Corn bran is corn flakes.... Kellogg's actually sells reject corn flakes back to the feed mills for livestock. Once cereal hits expiration date. it's mixed into feed for livestock for carb/sugar boost and energy source
