Im having an issue with Thumper potting in her pellet dish. She hasn't been doing this untill now. Nothing really has changed other then introducing veggies. She does however move her dishes all over. Any help? suggestions?
 
I prefer to use J feeders, with the tall part outside the cage and the trough through a hole in the side of the cage, suspended just a little above the cage floor. The only rabbit's I've had use these for potties are babies that figure it's easier to climb into the trough to eat rather than just sit up a little bit.

You might be able to discourage that behavior with a crock (bowl) if you suspend it a little higher from the side of the cage (just below where her chin normally is when sitting in a relaxed position). She won't be able to shove it around the cage then, either.
 
Thankx something that simple I wouldn't have thought...duuh that makes sence. What are J feeders and where can I find them? She has bowls right now for pellets and hey and Im noticing she is pottying poo and pee in both of them now. I just had to clean out her hay bowl and give her fresh hay. It makes it hard to do now causei zip tied to the bowl to the cage. Any other easier ideas?
