Solving Rabbit Coat Health Issues with Rabbit Show
Beautiful fur made easy with nutrition: Beautiful fur condition with protein from RANDOLPH RABBIT SHOW
Randolph Rabbit Show is the only rabbit food specifically formulated for coat maintenance that offers more than just aesthetic enhancement—it provides comprehensive health support. A rabbit’s coat acts as a mirror to its internal health. A coat that lacks luster, feels coarse, or sheds excessively is often linked to nutritional deficiencies, illness, hormonal imbalances, genetics, or even environmental pollution. In rabbits, the primary factor is nutrition. Here is how Randolph Rabbit Show helps.
Understanding Shedding vs. Poor Health
While owners hope for soft, lush, and shiny fur, many only begin to pay attention when the coat becomes coarse or starts falling out. You may be told that "hair loss" and "molting" are the same and perfectly normal. However, recurring molting cycles where the new fur is thin, brittle, small-stranded, or accompanied by visible dandruff are actually signs of underlying health issues. These rabbits require proper nutritional correction.
The Science of Fur and Skin Growth
Keratin is the fundamental building block of skin, fur, and nails, providing structural strength. It consists of proteins and amino acids linked by disulfide bonds. The primary amino acid found in keratin is Cysteine, produced by cells called keratinocytes. The more bonds present, the stronger the structure; for instance, fur is composed of up to 95% keratin protein.
While firmness comes from keratin, skin suppleness and moisture are derived from amino acids like Serine, Alanine, and Glycine, which permeate the outermost layer of the skin (stratum corneum). In rabbits, diet is the most critical factor in keratin production. Other influences, such as thyroid hormones or cortisol, typically only show significant impact during overt illness. However, protein and amino acids remain the primary fuel for growth and serve as reliable indicators of a rabbit's recovery and overall health.
The Randolph Formula: Enriched Protein & Collagen
Randolph Rabbit Show is a source of enriched protein (no less than 18%), containing essential amino acids for various body functions. It is further fortified with sulfur-containing amino acids to provide extra Cysteine.
This enriched protein approach is widely used in high-performance herbivores, such as horses, to achieve balanced muscle tone and a silky, radiant coat—much like humans use protein treatments for healthy hair. When applied to rabbits, this formula stimulates the shedding of old fur and the rapid growth of a new coat within just three weeks.
Randolph is the pioneering brand to develop this coat and skin formula for clinical therapeutic use. Beyond natural plant proteins, Randolph Rabbit Care has evolved to include Collagen supplementation. Collagen is a protein synthesized by the body consisting of 19 types of amino acids, including 8 essential ones. Its most abundant component is Glycine, making up 33% of its structure.
Comprehensive Benefits of 5 Core Collagen Types
By providing Randolph Rabbit Show, your rabbit receives benefits that extend far beyond a beautiful coat. Collagen is categorized into various types based on biochemical structure:
Type I (90% of body collagen): Found in skin, bones, and tendons. Deficiencies lead to wrinkles and coarse fur.
Type II: Supports joint health and is found primarily in cartilage.
Type III: Found in muscles, blood vessels, and internal organs like the intestines.
Type IV: Located within the skin layers.
Type V: Found in the skin, hair/fur, corneas, and placental tissue.
As rabbits age, the quality and production of natural collagen decline. Oral collagen supplementation provides the necessary Glycine to assist in skin cell turnover and the stimulation of new cells, leading to visible improvements in vitality.
Total Wellness Support
The benefits of collagen include joint care (arthritis and injury recovery), liver support (as Glycine helps produce glutathione), vascular strengthening, and wound healing.
Additionally, Randolph Rabbit Show is packed with essential vitamins and minerals fundamental to recovery and fur synthesis, including:
Vitamins: A, D, E, B-complex, and C.
Minerals: Zinc and Iron.
