Summary

Ranchway Feeds, Incorporated has recalled 8,000 lbs (packaged in 50 lb bags) of Entire Rabbit Ration because the feed contains high levels of Vitamin D, despite a formulation that should contain none. This error occurred during the manufacturing process and affects feed distributed across Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mexico. Because excessive Vitamin D can cause serious health complications in rabbits, consumers should immediately stop using this product and return it to the place of purchase for a refund.
