Yesterday, I went out and got my first bunny! He is seven weeks old and is a Holland lop. :]
The problem is, he hasn't been eating very much at all [I haven'tobserved him eating any food, and his dish still looks about as full asI filled it.] I was looking around online to try to find an answer andthe most logical explanation seems to be that he is under a lot ofstress right now [he spent a whole lot of time in the car yesterday,and is still adjusting to his new home] and so that's probably why he'snot eating a whole lot.
But what can I do to get him to eat more? He chews on things a lot andeats some of the hay, I think, but doesn't really enjoy chewing on anyof the toys I got him, just some magazines when I let him explore thehouse. Also, he seems to be pooping just fine for now, but I'm worriedthat if he continues to barely eat, he'll develop diarrhea and becomeill. :[
Pleaaaase help! Thank you!
[edit]--By the way, his food bowl is kind of big and so it's a bittall. Would it help if he had a smaller and lower food bowl, maybe?
Also--his name is Napoleon Bonaparte and here is a picture of him!
