Hi, hope someone can help me with this I'm a bit confused about the whole vitamin D thing with rabbits. Do they absolutely need direct sunlight or can they get it from food?
Mine are outdoors so get to go out in runs and sunbathe, but for the winter I had them in the shed. They had light through a window, but not direct sunlight.
Now they are outside but I've just put two in the shed because they're going to give birth soon (they're separated) and it's more cosy for the babies and safer. They'll be in there until the babies are big enough to hop around, then they can come out during the day in runs.
Will they be ok?
Also for people who have indoor rabbits, do they need sunlight?
Thanks
