Changing Feed Times...

[Jenk]

After the New Year, I mayreturn to work full-time (since part-time office jobs are nearly impossible to find).When my schedule changes, my bunnies' feeding schedules will need to change, too.

My one bun's current AM feeding of greens (10:30 am)will need to be much earlier (no later than 7:30 am, assuming that my hubby provides it). My one male is currently fed pellets at 4 pm-ish and greens in the evening; his pellet feeding will either need to be moved to the earlyAM or later in the PM, depending upon which is likely better for a bun's digestion. (Both buns PM feeding of greens is around 10-10:30 pm.)

Can Ichange my buns' feeding schedules (making the greens feeding early for my girl and the pellet feeding early for my boy)? Or should I slowly move back the feeding times (by about 30 minutes' difference per day)? Any thoughts?

Thank you,

Jenk

Personally, I've never had a problem doing this with my buns, so I wouldn't think it would cause any gut issues to move feeding times to be earlier. I've had to change feeding times by a couple hours before and it always turned out fine.

I agree, this should not be a problem for the bun at all. So, you rest assured on that. But, you may have to never ending see a bun who apprears to have never been fed before, ever! Snuff is like number 1 at that act, haha! Silly bunners.

My guy's like that in the morning when he wants to come out of his cage, as well as at feeding time. The enthusiasm is astounding--especially to a human who may not have had coffee yet.

My buns don't really have a schedualed (sp?) feeding time, its usually around 7:45am before school or if its a weekend its more like 9:00am and at night its around 5:30pm but it varies everyday
