Hi guys! Thought I would get someopinions on our blossoms diet. Blossom just turned 6 monthsold a couple days ago. Right now she eats oxbow hay,unlimited and oxbow rabbit pellets (for the adult rabbit)Ihave started to introduce her to veggies a few weeks ago. Sofar she has tried baby carrots and peapods, and she LOVES themboth. I am really torn on what her daily diet should bethough. I took her to two different vets (both who claim tobe bunny experts, they both even do yearly bunny education) and theyhave different opinions on food. One said only pellets about1/8-1/4 cup and unlimited hay. The other one said plenty offresh green veggies a day, unlimited hay and about 1/8cup of pellets aday. What I really found interesting is they both said thatspaying is unnecessary, which goes against everything I have everread(I am not overly worried about that right now because my son willbe showing her at the fair next summer so she cant be spayed quite yetanyways) Ok, sorry back to my food question. Right nowBlossom gets unlimited hay,about 1/4-1/2 cup pellets, withmaybe three pieces or less of veggies in a 24 hr. period. Inyour opinion is that too much veggies, too many pellets? Sheseems to always be hungry!!! I really want to do whats best forBlossom, but I am confused:?Iam not sure of her currentweight but about 5-6 weeks ago she weighed 2lbs 6oz and she is aholland lop who was 6 months old on Oct. 20. Thanks for anyhelp, opinions, or suggestions!!! Tracy
