Do you use treats on two month to three month old bunnies? What kind? I was told it gives them life threatening diarrhea.
Yogurt treats are NOT safe for rabbits, its extremely bad for their digestive system. Hay is essential for rabbits, try different types (timothy, orchard, wheat, oat) try different brands or cuts, I've bought a bad bag a time or 2 that the buns don't want anything to do with, but the next bag they'll devour. They absolutely need hay for fiber.On the subject of treats. I give soup yogurt treats a lot. I use to give her like 2 a day one in the morning and one at night. But she loves em so much i started to give her more. Is this unhealthy. i heard that as long as she isnt over weight she is fine. which she not she at the perfect weight. I also ddnt give her much veggies because i heard some where to that a lot of veggies werent good. i give her carrots and lettuce. I stop buying hay cuz soup would not eat it. For some odd reason she HATES hay. shell just throw it outta her cage. So i try to find fiber somewhere else. Which is kinda hard to i have these treats taht are suppose to be full of fiber with yogurt in the middle so shell eat it. i have a hard time feeding her anything healthy unless it has a yogurt treat in it. She is super spoiled and very very picky. Does anyone know what i can give her that is healthy that she might eat?
Why do you ask if you don't care about the answer?Ive tried all the hays i can think of. She doesnt wanna eat it. The only treat shell eat is those yogurt treats she been eating them for years. Has never had a problem with her stomach the only time she did was when i gave her veggies. She extremely picky... shell eat carrots but not even a good amount of carrots. And a little bit of lettuce from time to time. I use to try and give her a bunch of variety that i heard was good for rabbits and she wont eat it. She seems satisfied with just the pellets and those bars of seeds. She will devour those. But other than that she doesnt touch much else. Dr says she in perfect health. So i try not to change her diet so much on the count of shes old. But she will eat baby spinach idk if thats good for her so i dont give her much of that. Other than that she wont eat it. Soup is spoiled rotten. So its pretty much her way or no way.
Mostly right 2 cups of veggies per 6lbs of bunny, which actually comes out to be about 2x a bunnies head, and less than a "thumbful" of fruit a day. Fruit is really more of a treatSlowly introduce everything to your bun, and don't forget not to give them more than the size of their head in the amount of veggie and or fruit.
