If Weston isn't yet full-grown, it's unlimited alfalfa pellets. If he's full-grown he should be getting timothy pellets, limited unless he's underweight. Usually we also provide some greens daily after a certain age. Right now, Honey's favorite is plantain from the yard.

Those yogurt things are completely artificial. I'd sure replace them with a craisins or something. Papaya is a good digestive aid, so Honey gets dried papaya bits.

I've never heard of rice chew sticks for rabbits. What do they contain?
 
Weston has unlimited access to rabbit pellets, timothy/alfalfa pellets, and bermuda hay. He also gets one yogurt drop each day. When he's out and about he has these rice chew sticks for rabbits that he loves.

Yeah, as Lake mentioned, yogurt drops are complete trash. You can replace them with dried fruit (no added sugars) or raisins/craisins. Honestly most pet store treats are not good for bunnies. I would recommend you cut all the rice sticks and yogurt drops out if the bunnies diet. What kind of pellets are you using? Do you give him greens? Fresh water (just making sure)?

You probably didn't notice (being a newer member), but this post is almost 7 years old. You may want to check the post date (above each post in the dark green bar) before replying to such an old thread. ;)
 
FIRST OF ALL I'm NOT a new member. And second of all, why can't I reply to an old thread? Why can't I try to give advice to someone? Not trying to be rude, but come on...

Easy does it. No need to get worked up.

Your avatar shows that you joined last month. As such, it isn't unreasonable to assume you had not noticed the age of the thread.

Advice is fine but the member you are replying to hasn't been on this forum for over 4 years. The advice was asked 7 years ago, so even if they were on the forum, it's a bit late.
