Bag of Feed

Since I was feeling a little better today I decided to open up a new 50 lb bag of rabbit food to see how many cups of feed are in a bag of feed. I used a 1 cup measuring scoop, there are roughly 122 cups of feed in our rabbit feed.

Next I decided to weigh our rabbit food containers:


The Extra Large container is used for babies (full feeding) which weighs 0.12 ounces
The Large container is used for our Flemish Giants, it weighs 0.6 ounces
The Medium container is for the Angoras (some of whom are feed twice a day) weighs 0.4 ounces.
The Small container is used for the Jersey Woolies which weighs 0.2 ounces.

The feeders with feed in them weigh the following:

Small container with 1/2 cup of feed weighs roughly 0.8 ounces
Medium container with 1 cup of feed weighs roughly 0.10 ounces
Large container with 2 cups of feed weighs roughly 1.4 lbs
Extra Large Container with 4 cups of feed weighs roughly 2.7 lbs.
