They're dried cranberries.

And the buns LOVE them!!!

I gave the buns some this morning. I have 7 bunnies and the 6 thataren't getting any go nutsy. They stand against the sides of theircages and bounce all around and keep checking to see if they're next.

Benji got so excited this morning that he jumped up on the cage doorwhen I opened it and fell right out of his cage. Good thing I was thereto catch him. And he's like nothing happened and is still franticlylooking for the craisins because he can still smell them.

They eat them so fast that by the time I given some to all....they'reall looking for more. Like they finish them almost before the cage dooris closed.

If I tried to get Binkie to do that...she would probably just bite me on the ankle to get me to drop it!!

Mine get raisins, too.

I keep the raisins and craisins in separate containers and thecontainers are different. The buns KNOW the differecewhen I shake the container.

Raisins = Really excited

Craisins = OUT OF CONTROL

Someone else here said it best: Craisins is crack for bunnies.

So what are these crasins? when i first saw the name Ithought it was a spelling mistake. lolI live in Cornwall andI've never heard of them.

I live in Devon and had never seen them. But then i found out they'renot called craisins here, well i dont think so anyway. I just bought apacket that said dried and sweetened cranberries on it, i am guessinthey are the same thing

raisins, honey coated dried banana chips, dried pineapple and dried papaya. is this suitable for buns??

I feed mine Dried Apricots and have found someDried Plums that do not contain sugar within the ingredients. I haven'tbought Craisins before due to the sugar. Is that sugar ok for them? Imay buy some if you guys think it is.

I was able to find craisins with no sugar added. I get them at thefarmers market. All they have in them is dried cranberries andcranberry juice....no sugar.
