So I have 3 baby bunnies, all in the same litter, and I'm trying to adopt them off, but one of the problems i have with litter training is they keep digging and pooping in their food. I can't get them to stop. :C It's bogus and annoying. How can I get them to stop?
 
How old are they? I've experienced that with young bunnies when they first start eating, you could put the bowl up higher or something. I'm not sure.
 
Do you mean in their food bowl? I have a couple who dig in their bowl, and they're both well over a year old - actually Winston is the worst and will seem to purposely scatter it all around with his paws, and then forage in his hay and bedding for it. And the pooping thing could be solved with a few smaller bowls so they can't sit in/on them. As long as they're not peeing in it, of course, I wouldn't worry too much about it. If it's not bothering them, leave them to it I guess :)
 
They are at least 8 weeks, and they did the food out of the bowl and then poop and pee in it, ruining the food.
