hey bunny peoples
My bunny Sweets is turning 3 in July and at the moment he's moulting. He weighs 2.4kilograms. I've stopped giving him as much pellets as normal because they make him have really horrible poos...since I've given him less pellets his poo is back to normal healthy ones.
So because of that I've started giving him more vegies and he's going crazy for them! He's also eating like twice the amount of hay that he used to eat.
His normal diet is...
about 4 or 5 slices of carrot, 4 baby pak choy (or bok choy/choy sum) leaves and a handful of celery leaf. That's breakfast.
He'll eat hay and like a tablespoon or less of pellets around lunch time. He has access to hay at all times.
In the evenings/afternoon I normally give him some more leaf and some mint/parsley from the garden.
and at bedtime...around 11pm, he gets the same as breakfast.
Do you think I'm feeding him enough? I've read that the more bunnies eat the more they drink, is that true?
One more question!! What other vegetable like carrots do your bunnies enjoy? Sweets LOVES carrots, but I know he shouldn't have too many.
He seems fine and really happy and snuggly and I love him so much!!!
:inlove:
here's a picture of him eating his breakfast...I'm sure he's finished it by now.
Thanks for any replys or info
