        What is your bunny’s favorite treat?  What do they go crazy for?

        Zeus is a lover of most dried fruits, but lately he goes nuts for dried mango.  He sits back on his hind legs and just sniffs the air all excitedly when he hears me open the bag.

        He’s also a big fan of kale, and won’t let me pet him while he eats kale.  He thinks I’ll steal it from him, and will take it in his mouth and carry it away to a “safe” place to eat, LOL.

          Nate likes anything food related I haven’t found a big preference either way as long as he can put it in his mouth… dog/cat food included

          Tait loves craisins of course, but he goes craaaazzzyyy for dried papaya! I’ve been trying to teach him to spin and if i have a craisin he will do it reluctantly, but if I have a piece of papaya he will spin so fast I almost miss it Veggies wise Tait is also a Kale snob, haha

            My buns is so stereotypical… he goes NUTS for carrots and will take it to a safe place to eat. He also goes crazy for the new Oxbow Digestive Supplements. He will run laps around his room with one in his mouth, just so excited! Then, he has to eat it at his safe place, because you know I’ll steal what I call the “hay cake” from his mouth

              Hunny goes crazy for her brussel sprouts, I usually hide them at the bottom of her salad bowl but she knows it’s in there & will dig & push everyhthing else aside till she finds it & her fave sweet treat are the all natural papaya spears as soon as she hears me open the snack drawer her ears are at attention but I swear she can tell the differnece between the Craisin bag & the papaya one cuz when I pull the spears out no matter what she’s doing (snoozing, going potty, whatever) she comes running full force at me & tries to climb up my leg… Craisins only make her run circles around me feet.

              The papaya spears are also very popular with Ash… the 1st time he ever jumped outta his pen was for a piece of spear… Idk if it’s cuz he saw how excited Hunny gets but he was up & over in the blink of an eye!

                Foos loves dried mango and papaya, and her pellets. She likes carrots but isnt super crazy about them. Parsley is by far her favorite veggie.

                  Tofu loves mint and basil…. but only if he gets to pluck them off of the plant. If I pluck off a basil leaf he will hop over, smell it, chin it, and hop away as if to say “yup, that’s mine, but you can just leave it right there for me later thanks.”

                  He also likes these apple hay cake treats his last owner got him.

                    Kahlua loves banana and radicchio; Rupert loves pretty much anything. He seems to have a special fondness for blueberries.

                      I’ve only ever given Sir Rupert freeze dried strawberries and papaya tablets so far, and he seems like he’ll happily eat them but not be particularly enthused about either. So I’m going to assume that if I find that thing he loves it’ll actually be really obvious?

                          Craisins. You should see them do a running skid into the craisin bag when I rattle it. lol

                            Foo tried arugula for the first time tonight and went crazy in my lap just from smelling and then INHALED what I let her try. Looks like we have a new favorite veggie, for the being at least.

                                She loves any fruit I put in front of her, dried herbs snacks (from the store), bunny cookies, all of it, HOWEVER, if fresh banana or dried cranberries are anywhere near her, WATCH OUT, she goes nuts for them. I had trained her to do a circle in front of me (instead of inbetween my feet where then she gets nutty), so now if she even thinks I am getting cranberries out of her treat jar, she will start doing a gobzillian circles before I can even get the cranberry out. She does the same thing if she even smells banana.

                                  My bun goes nuts for the Oxbow Digestive Supplement just like TH004’s! It’s really cute. I’ll lay her food down in front of her and she’ll go for that first. But she loves bananas. I was sitting on the floor eating one while she was out playing and didn’t think she would go after it since we’ve only fed her it once or twice before. She started yanking on the peel to try to get the banana. xP

                                      Mimzy loves her food & fresh fruit. I haven’t found what she goes absolutely crazy for yet though. The dried fruit, is that just at the grocery store? I want to try craisins & dried papaya!

                                          I get our dried fruit from either the bulk or organic section of the grocery store. If you are only buying bunnu sized amounts, bulk is probably cheaper since (at Giant at least) you weigh out and pay for as little or as much as you want. I’ll pay 75 cents for a month worth of dried mango and papaya slices.

                                            Snuggles, the bunny I had when I was younger, would always go absolutely nuts for bananas and whole oats! Her nose started twitching like crazy when I brought some to her cage. Frankie, my current bun, is a little over 3 months old and I recently started introducing greens slowly to his diet. So far he loves everything I’ve offered him: cilantro, basil, parsley, carrot, banana, and little nibbles of apple and peach.
