    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    Hmm, I guess that makes sense since the pellets are probably harder than anything else she eats. Is there a way I can tell if she has teeth problems at home or is that something only a vet can determine?

    Got the Zupreem... she didn't touch it.

    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    I don't know about an alfalfa pellet... I was thinking just a different Timothy pellet, temporarily. My other rabbit didn't like the Oxbow at first either but he got used to it when I switched over very gradually. I'd like her to eat the Oxbow... Maybe I'll give the Zupreem a try, I've seen it...

    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    I usually leave the pellets I give her in the morning until the next morning, and then throw them out and give her new ones. I'm going to buy another bag of Oxbow today just to see if maybe they are stale or something and my other rabbit, who will eat anything, just doesn't care. She's able...

    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    I waited three weeks, plus she was given this same food for two or three months at the shelter, so I don't think that's the problem.

    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    I will have had her for three weeks tomorrow. I would think she'd get used to it by now. They didn't say anything about whether she did/didn't eat them... they are a very big shelter and have dozens of pets go in/out daily and I think if I called now they wouldn't be able to give me an answer...

    New bunny is a very picky eater & won't eat Oxbow pellets

    I adopted a new rabbit about three weeks ago to eventually be a companion for my original rabbit. I feed Oxbow BB/T and she will not touch it. She would pick at it a little bit to begin with but now she won't eat it at all. She eats her hay, and she eats greens... but is also picky about the...

    Kaytee Timothy Complete vs Oxbow Bunny Basics T

    I bought a bag of the Oxbow, though he doesn't seem to like it too much. I've been mixing it in with the Kaytee and he eats all of the Kaytee and leaves the Oxbow behind. BethM, what is the reason you switched to American Pet Diner? I haven't heard of that brand before.

    Kaytee Timothy Complete vs Oxbow Bunny Basics T

    Which is better? and WHY, what ingredients make one better/worse? I have been feeding Kaytee but just found a place that sells Oxbow nearby so am considering switching. Kaytee: Sun-cured timothy grass hay, oat hulls, wheat middlings, dehulled soybean meal, ground wheat, ground oats, dried cane...

    Not using the litterbox in new cage

    jcottonl02 wrote: He did that last time, and that is how I originally got him trained... but he seems to be going in the middle of this one. I will keep an eye out and see if he picks out a corner, I think he may not feel like this is "his" cage yet (he's only in there at night) so maybe it'll...

    Not using the litterbox in new cage

    I recently got a new cage for my rabbit. It has a second story and ramp similar to his old cage, and I put his same litterbox underneath the second story as it was before. In his previous cage he would always use the litterbox to pee, but I noticed he hasn't in his new cage. I wiped up his...

    Sterelizing a previously-inhabited cage for a new inhabitant

    And you've had no problems with bleach? I have been worried about not being able to get all of it off before allowing my rabbit inside and harming him if he goes to bite on the bars of the cage, for example (which he rarely does - but have still seen him do it)

    Sterelizing a previously-inhabited cage for a new inhabitant

    I just bought a new cage for my rabbit. It's a used cage, clean and in very good condition, but used. It was clean when I received it, but I took a sponge and poured rubbing alcohol on it and went over the entire cage inside and out, and then wiped it off with several wet paper towels. Is...

    What brand of pelleta do you use?

    I feed "Timothy Complete" by Kaytee. After doing my research, this brand of pellets best fit in the "average" of what was recommended. It's available at PetCo if you've got one nearby. You should always feed unlimited Timothy / grass hay. It is very important for the digestive tracks of...
