Maybe I should post these separately. Help with either or both is greatly appreciated:
1) I was chatting with a friend the other day and she said that one of the issues she had with her rabbit (male, now 11) was that she kept feeding him kale after age 3 and he ended up getting huge calcium build ups.
Yoshi (F, Norwegian dwarf) is nearing age 3 (I adopted her at 1ish and I've had her for about 1.5ish so it's sort of hard to say) and kale is her FAVORITE (mine too!). Should I stop feeding her this? Is this true? Is it a male rabbit thing?
2) Same person also told me to make sure (and I'm trying to remember this one, I should have written it down!) her pellets are NOT alfalfa based and that her hay is timothy (which is already true) after about age 3ish as well. I thought alfalfa pellets were the best?! =/
