My Rabbit will only eat pellets and treats

Hat lasts quite a long time - no need to have all 6 pounds are finished before getting other hay. Grab a small bag of alternative hay at the local pet store, and see how he does on a mix of old and new. If he prefers the other hay, you can always sell your existing supply to another rabbit owner

I was going crazy trying to get Sweetpea to eat something other then her favs; She would ONLY eat the stems of alfalfa and nothing more she would throw her dish across the room. She would get mad and NOT eating nothing for days.

I found a hay she loves!

I take baby steps with her; I'm using the weening one right now and its helping she is eating all her hay.

I saw this hay too! I can't find any petstores that sell it around me and ordering online is in incredibly expensive .

petco has something similar - the sales lady showed it to me when she was confirming what I said about them being out of alfalfa. way too pricey for my liking, though - my rabbits would go through a box a day easily.

Stay vigilant! Your rabbits diet should be 90% hay! Most rabbits may turn away new foods the fist few times u serve it. Check your local House Rabbit Chapter for store hours. The San Diego one here has a bunny store that sells nice big boxes of hay for $12! It is a combo of timothy and other hays. As u know fruits are high in sugar and not a healthy choice of treat. I used to give Ziggy mango but now buy him special bunny crackers made from hay, and he loves them more than fruit now! I would be cautious of grass trimmings as well, any unseen mold can make him sick. Even the most stubborn bun will come around and break bad feeding habits, good luck!!
