Hi!
I've tried giving my bunny Simba Timothy hay and orchard grass hay, but the only hay he ever eats is alfalfa hay. Timothy and orchard grass and all the other types end up either untouched or scattered all over his cage.
I read a bunch of articles on correct bunny diet, and I know that alfalfa hay is not the healthiest hay for bunnies by far. I took the advice from those articles and mixed the Timothy hay and some orchard grass hay in with the alfalfa. But my bunny still won't eat it! I think he picks out some bits of alfalfa out of the mixture I make for him, and the rest goes untouched.
I've been feeding my bunny just alfalfa for about a year or so before I found out the truth about it. Still, it's the only hay he ever eats. Simba has not been showing any signs if sickness whatsoever since I got him, and his stool is perfectly fine.
If anyone knows any tips on how I can get my bunny to eat the right hay for him, I'd REALLY appreciate it if you shared them with me. Thanks!
