my boys both love bananas! that picture is hilariousi didnt know you could give them the peel either, ill haveto try that next time. i use both fresh and dried bananas and neitherof them have had runny poop, but i make sure not to give them too much.where can you find dried papaya as william hates papaya tablets.

A while back I transitioned all of my bunnies to a very controlleddiets. Limited pellets, unlimited timothy hay, rolled oats daily,romaine twice a week, and some dried papaya once a week.

The only thing that seems to affect their poops is fruit. However, the dried papaya doesn't seem to bother them for some reason.

I get the dried papaya at Pet Goods. They have it in the small animalsdept and in the bird dept. Kaytee has a whole line of dried fruits andveggies.

I get my dried papaya from the bulksection at a Health Food Store. It is cheaper thatthe packaged ones in the Pet Shops.

Pebbles has as much as 3 papaya tablets and severalpieces of dried papaya every day and she is doing very wellwith her poops.

When I feed Pebbles bananas with the skin.... I always wash the banana first.

Rainbows!

I tried finding it in bulk, but the payaya had sugar added at every place I tried so far.

You don't want them eating big amountsof banana peel or banana for that matter. But the peel is fine forrabbits.

Christa will try and steal the peel off a banana if I don'twatch her. She'd rather have the peel, not the banana.

All of mine get their banana slices peel and all, and I'venever had a problem. They just don't get very much, very often.
