I just came back from a month long trip during which my husband was taking care of our 4 rabbits. He is not a rabbit lover so I presume he did minimum of what needed to be done. Anyway, I found all of them being more or less all right.
The night I arrived, I came to the yard and gave them Oxbow Simple rewards - they all were impatient for them. Next day in the morning I gave them some kale and they all were eating well. Then, it was hot during the say so I brought Snowball inside as he hates heat. He spent the day in my bedroom and I had a hard time getting him out. I think they are all pretty tired from the heat + humidity we recently having.
On the same evening, I saw that Thumper is lieing in hot garage which was unusual because they all prefer to be outside when the sun goes down and the heat releases a bit. I thought she was missing Snowball who is her fellow (he was still inside). They are housed in garage when are not outside (I know this is not the best option but right now I am discussing something else). I watched her sitting in the same spot last evening and during this morning. She didn't come to eat evening veggies and didn't come for morning veggies. Concerned, I brought her in to look at her closer. She doesn't seem to be in pain, just lieing quietly. I didn't see anything on her body that would concern me. I took her back to garage. We had a lot of rain overnight, they don't like too much wetness outside.
The problem is that its not easy to tell who of the 4 rabbits ate what and who pooped what. I probably should bring her in for a day to see if she eats and id she poops.
She is unspayed 2.5 yo bunny. I am finally saved some money to get her spayed.
Any advise about her not eating? Thanks.

If she continues to eat and improve, then you shouldn't need to give her anymore simethicone, but if you do need to give anymore you can give 2 doses of the 0.6ml, ml is the same as cc, so giving 2 would be 1.2ml/cc, which is about the right amount.
