I know i have discussed a lot about what bunnies should eat after weaning. I live in Australia and have not found in my local area anywhere that stocks the good quality pellets, I found some protein enriched stuff at the pet shop and when I asked what the ingredients were, they had no idea and had no idea if bunnies could eat it, so I did not buy it. I have looked for the oxbow pellets and cannot find them. I have been able to find lucerne dried grass, which I think is the equivalent to alfalfa grass, correct me if I am wrong. Anyway, is it ok for the bunnies to eat this?? What do the need in addition to it. I have found a couple, 1 mainly, always getting out of the nest box, cheeky little thing it is, and in the food dish nibbling!!! They are only 16 days old. Is this normal?? Should I provide them with water, as the mothers water bottle is up way too high and I cannot get it lower. This little cheeky buny, I have watched it, and it will go up to the mother for a feed every chance it gets, it is so funny, I see it with its bum in the air trying to get under mum. Is this normal behaviour to want extra feeds and go after the mum??
