    Bananas

    Thank you, Their names are Lily(brown) and Bella( white). Sad to say that Bella pass away last year. Lily is 8 years old now, but she continues to be a lover of bananas, apples, carrots, tomatoes, oats, and greens. I use the fruits as a treat every other day at about 5:00 pm. She always comes...

    Bananas

    My bunny loves apples and bananas. I usually give her a snack of fruit she likes 2 or 3 times a week. I usually cut the banana up into 5 small pieces and the apple into several small pieces.

    I got my baby bunny yesterday and she won’t eat or drink. I have to force feed her!

    She still may be accumulating to her new surroundings. I would just put hay in her cage or wherever you keeping her. If she is litter trained, you can put hay in her litter if she is litter trained. Bunnies like to eat while they use the potty.

    Saved rabbit, need help IDing breed so I can look up care tips

    You probably will want to give him some kind of hiding place when he is outside in the pen just in case some kind of predator comes around. Rabbits like to have a place to hide. I am so glad that you found him. He looks like he feels safe and at home with you. A great source that I used before...

    Need advice on switching food

    I would change her to timothy hay and give the alfalfa hay as a treat until it is gone.

    Rabbit not pooping

    What are you feeding your rabbit? If it is soft poop he may be eating it.

    What is the best place to buy hay?

    I don't know about hay but I have grown grass in pots and my bunnies love it. I got the seeds on Amazon. I am not sure what kind of grass it is. I buy Standlee hay from amazon. I get their 25lb box which lasts about 4 to 5 months for 2 bunnies. The hay is fresh and green. The stalks are long...

    What is the best place to buy hay?

    I buy my hay from amazon. Standley is the name. I buy a 25-pound box for my 2 bunnies. It lasts me about 3-4 months. It stays fresh for that amount of time. The hay is clean and green with long stocks. It is about 42 dollars for 25lbs. I am not sure if they sell smaller amounts but it would...

    She will get used to you. Rabbits are social animals and like to be around others, whether it's another rabbit or a human.

    The transition with hay is an easy one. You can just change their hay. The pellets are a little more tricky. You need to give them the old pellets with a little of the new and every day continue to increase the new pellets and lesson the old pellets. They should only have 1/4th cup of pellets a day.

    I was wrong about the alfalfa hay you only feed them alfalfa hay up to 6 months and pellets up to 4 months. I would transition them from both the hay and pellets. The pellets should slowly transition with a little of their old and new pellets. I would feed them the hay until you run out and then...

    If she is a year old or older it would be best to switch totally to timothy. Rabbits are able to transition to hay much easier than pellets. So you do not have to mix. Make sure the pellets do not have any fillers like nuts, or little treats in the pellet mix. I usually give my rabbits 1/4th...

    Treats are ok but it is best to make their treats like natural things. Such as greens, oats a little bit of fruit, my bunnies like love pieces of bananas dried or fresh or cran raisins. Those are the only fruits that my rabbits like. However they do also like the miniature tomatoes you just...

    Bunny only wants to eat cardboard

    Cardboard is fine for bunnies to eat. I would give him small pieces of cardboard. and other toys that he can chew on. You may want to get the rubber wire protectors. Cardboard and paper is a natural thing for bunnies to eat. Just reduce the amount of cardboard that you give him. If you don't...

    Can someone help me

    Some bunnies are more used to drinking from a bowl instead of a bottle, but they do adjust. I have used both for my bunnies. As everyone says hay is supposed to be the main source of the bunnies diet. They should only get about 1/4th cup of pellets a day. I would hold off on the carrots for a...
