We recently got a bag of food that looked really bad. The picture above shows the food from the bag we were using in the top right and the freshly opened bag on the bottom left. The date codes were very recent and the food came from a reputable source. The pellets were inconsistent in color and had large chunks of unformed food mixed in. This is a good indicator that the food had gotten wet and was moldy. Never feed food that looks like this to your animals. There is an excellent article on feed issues in Domestic Rabbits (the ARBA magazine) from April 2014. Always give your feed a good once over before giving it to your animals!
