Hey all.
I have a 3lb full grown rabbit. I'm currently attempting to get him completely off pellets as I feed all my pets a completely natural diet and the rabbit is no exception. I have a question for anyone that feeds a hay and veggie only diet.
I've read about what nuturion they need and all that, as well as what veggies to get. The question I had is that while I do limit the "special" foods - carrots, broccoli, a little bit of fruit - that won't be good for him in excess how should I feed his "staple" foods? Since in the wild rabbits forage all day should I just give him an endless supply of these vegtables and let him graze through out the day - much like I give hay? Or should I give a measured amount and feed him in the morning and the night time?
I know that might not be completely clear - so ask questions and I can clarify if need be. I guess I could have said it easier if I said with a hay and veggie diet should the vegetables (minus the "special" ones I mentioned earlier) be given in free feed style?
Thanks ahead of time for any answers.
