feeding

Afternoon! Sooo, my husband found a kit lying in a dirt pile nearly frozen on Tuesday 3/29/22. We were able to revive it and dropper feed it. I’ve never dealt with wild rabbits before, but it looks so scrawny. Eyes and ears are still closed, and it’s finally growing a little hair. Able to get a...

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 got my bunny at a petstore (I have no shelters close to where I live) that sadly didn't really give their rabbits hay. Now she doesn't eat any hay at all. But I've been hesitant to take away pellets since she was underweight when I got her. I have tried: Rabbits salad sprinkled into her...

Hi all, firstly I hope I'm posting this in the correct thread. But my doe gave birth to 2 babies 5 days ago, it was an accidental pregnancy and I'm very out of my depth and so unprepared. I've been checking in on them a couple times a day cause I am very anxious it feels like they're my own kids...

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?

Is it okay to give my bunny unlimited pellets while I’m on vacation? He is only a few months old and my dad is going to come once a day while I’m on vaca. I just don’t want him to go into GI stasis. He also eats a lot of hay. If someone can let me know that would be appreciated.

I have two healthy baby bunnies i recently rescued, and they are feeding on formula. Currently, their eyes are still closed, but they have fur and im assuming they are a couple days old. This is their 4th day with us and they just suddenly stopped eating. They pick at the milk, but it is more...

I have just found a baby bunny out of the nest, I picked it up and put it back in but it is just moving and breathing. There are 4 others in the nest which are active and swirling around. I’m not sure what to do. When would I decide to feed it by hand? If I have to what do I feed it and how...

Biscuit weighs almost 4 pounds. How much food should I feed him? Right now I feed him 1 cup 2-3 times a day and sometimes a little snack. Is that too much or too little? Please let me know!

So I got two new rabbits. At their old home all they are are were pellets. They are holland lops and got a third of a cup of pellets a day. I am starting to feed them unlimited hay now which they really seem to like. Should I cut back on pellets or not?

I just got a new rabbit from a breeder and she doesn’t feed hay to her rabbits. I’m wondering how would I start to introduce hay to her?

Hi, new member with a support feeding question. My 1.5 yr old rescue angora cross is losing weight. He was great a month ago but he blew out his coat and had lots a hairy poops and slowed down eating hay. He still eats his 1 tbsp of Oxbow pellets every day and 1/2 cup greens(usually dandelions...

My doe had babies and we have four now because unfortunately the others passed away. Since the mama became ill from how much the babies nurses on her, I have to syringe feed two of them. The two I don’t have to syringe feed are very big and will eat pellets and hay, and drink water on their own...

I have five baby rabbits that are fourteen days old now, and while the mom was feeding them one of the babies started screaming so I took the mom away and checked all of them and they were all okay and moving fine. One baby opened their eyes for the first time at that moment too, so I’m not sure...

June 1 my 5 month old rabbit had seven babies. She had made a nest in her cage, but I read that the nest should be somewhere clean and her cage was dirty so I moved them into a new nest in a clean cage for them. At first she would jump on them, but lately she just lays down near them and kind of...

Hey everyone! I got my first ever bunny a few weeks ago and I absolutely love him! I have quite a few questions though so help would be highly appreciated not only from me but from Toby as well. Toby is a 4 month old lion head rabbit. He’s quirky as hell and loves to run around and such. But I’m...

Hi there I am a new member and new bunny mom! I have recently adopted two bunnies one male named Beauford (Netherland Dwarf) and one female named Beatrice (Holland Lops)! The owners never notified me she was pregnant and I never really realized the signs she was showing until she gave birth...

Hi, I am getting ready to own a rabbit and have a question. I was wondering if the feeding guidelines (link to feed and pictures included) are for if you are feeding vegetables too because I am. I had plans to do 2 tbsp(1/8 cup)of pellets in the morning and 2 cups of vegetables at night (rabbit...

Sorry guys, I am sure many people asked and replied about this elsewhere but I have several doubts and questions about how to take care of my bunny. If you don't mind, I'd be glad to hear some advice... 1) Everybody says that bunnies need unlimited amount of hay all the time... BUT, what should...
