diet

I'm so exhausted from work and family drama that I forgot I left a bag of grapes on my floor (I was sitting on a pillow and snacking and drawing earlier). I got into bed and, it's hard to hear bc my fan is going and it's thundering. So I only got up when I remembered I left it there. Of course...

Sorry this is going to be long; I want to give as much context and details as possible. I adopted my lion-head bunny this year at like the beginning of June. She's est. to be 2-3 yrs old, and she weighs about 4lbs, and where I adopted her from said that she was still having some poop issues...

My 10 month old out door rabbit has put on a noticeable amount of weight since the summer. My family say he looks bigger and his double chin has also gotten bigger. I’m not sure why and i’m trying to work out what i should be reducing safely. I’ve increased his pellets to 1/3 cup a day and i’ve...

i have a 8 month old male rabbit called Glen. i usually feed him 1/4 of pellets a day, 2 large handfuls of lettuce (1 handful in the morning and 1 in the evening), a couple slices of pepper or cucumber or carrot and he has fresh hay on hand all the time. Since its becoming colder and he is an...

I found this list a while ago on the house rabbits society page and thought I'd share for those who need it! If any of these are outdated I apologize, I got this back in 2018, 2019 I think so there's probably been more research done so if anything is wrong please do let others know! On to the...

Hi, i’m a fairly new rabbit owner and has had my 5 and a half month old rabbit for over a month now So far, i feed him a handful of lettuce and 3 slices of pepper or cucumber or carrot twice a day for breakfast and dinner. He also has pellets and hay on offer for him 24/7 I thought that maybe...

Hi all, emmi and emit are both over weight and I’ve been trying to get them to lose some weight. Emit when I got him was on a free limit of pellets and I’ve cut back to half a cup of feed between the two twice a day. So a cup total per day Along with veggies which I was told shouldn’t be making...

Hi I had found that my grandparents rabbit had had babies again (she currently has ones that are about 1-2 months old) but 3 were dead and one off to the side alive. I took him home and started feeding him di vetalac and he has been doing well. He just made it through his 3rd night so I was...

I was wondering when to start transitioning my bun to adult pellets? He’s nearly 5 months old and still on burgess excel junior pellets. I have the adult pellets ready to go to start the transition which apparently they can eat from 4 months old. Any help would be much appreciated :)

Hi! I recently adopted my rabbit Dr. Cheese from a shelter and absolutely adore him. However, he is my second rabbit and I was a bit concerned about his digestion within the first 2 weeks. I noticed that he seems to leave small circular brown "spots" on his mat in his playpen and my last rabbit...

Hello guys, ever since i got haru I’ve been looking for the best hay I could find. The first one I don’t remember the brand name but it was VERY dusty, and after that I’ve been buying burgess excel, I tried the long stem one, the one with dandelion, and another one I also forgot what it was, I...

Hi friends! My 10 month old Holland Lop, Kyle, is an extremely picky eater to the point of starving himself if he doesn’t get food that he loves. However, he LOVES small pet select 3rd cutting Timothy hay. It’s really the only hay he will eat an adequate amount of (I’ve also tried their 2nd...

Hello I am interested to know how much pellets (if any), you feed your rabbits daily and do you give it in one sitting or more? Also would be helpful to know what size your bun is. I’m particularly interested in small-medium as that is what I have :) Thank you in advance for any info?

I gave my rabbit a tiny piece of lettuce for 3 days now. Can i give him vegetables everyday ? he is 3 months old. i will introduce new vegetables every week but how much should i increase the amount ? Also when can i give him fruits (treats) ?

Hi everyone! For the past few days my buns have both randomly had very small droppings and don’t want to eat much early in the mornings. They eat hay and fresh veggies in the afternoon and evening perfectly fine, and are drinking water. They also act very normal and have been more active...

I've looked this situation up and a lot of similar situations simply seem to be poop. I don't know, I don't really see poop, it's just a clump of fur that's.. stuck there and I'm not sure what to do. It might still be poop though! What do i do? The fur at the end seems to be getting dirty...

My baby rabbit has been peeing out white due to a high calcium/alfalfa hay diet. I took out alfalfa hay completely and switched to Timothy hay. However, does anyone have any recommendations for additional food for rabbits on a low calcium diet such as specific pellets, veggies, etc. Your advice...

Hi all, One of my rabbits has lost all interest in her pellets. Both of them eat twice a day, with both meals consisting of about 1/8 cup of pellets next to their greens. The boy goes wild for them but she doesn't touch them anymore, causing him to steal them and get more than his diet's...

I have a 5 year old rabbit who doesn’t eat hay, she only eats hay cubes. It’s not enough though. We took her to the vet today and the vet said it seems like she’s beginning to develop GI stasis. I know this can kill bunnies which is why I want to know if grass is a good substitute for hay. I’ve...
