Here's the answer to the question about the hay that you asked on the intro page.
Haley- Alfred never ate much hay, I think it was probably because histeeth were so in the way. Don't get me wrong, he did eat it, but I hadto cut it up into small pieces.
Since his surgery his hay eating habits have stayed about the same. I'mstill cutting it up for him, in hopes that it will get him to eat more.I think that maybe his gums are still a little sore, as his surgery wasonly about a week ago (Actually, looking at my calendar, it was only 4days ago, Tuesday the 3rd of April), and he only stopped the pain medstoday. Maybe it's just too pointy and dry? I'm going to give it anotherday or two then maybe I'll try spraying it with water to soften it. Iwouldn't leave it out for very long like that though, because themoisture might attract bacteria.
Alfred has been eating everything else though. Lots of pellets, freshgreens, and the occasional fruits and veggies. I still have to cut theharder things (fruits and veggies) into small pieces though, because hedoesn't have the front teeth to break them apart.
I'd love any tips and ideas that you have as far as feeding/food choices for bunnies without incisors.
