        I have had my bunny for almost 2 months now. I know what I have to feed her . I feed her about 1/4 cup of pellets and about 1 cup of veggies with like a piece of carrot or usually celery . I do this twice a day once in the morning at 8 am and again at 8 pm but when I feed her the second time i fell like the time between both feedings are too spaced because she is like super hungry  but I don’t want to change her diet routine when she is used to it . So should I give her a snack when  get home from school at 3 pm . Like a piece of lettuce and a little bit of pellets . just to give her something too eat so is no longer hungry .

          I have this same problem too. Either the rabbit doesnt have enough toys to keep it busy and thats why it just wants to eat all the time. Also the rabbit should have unlimited hay 24/7 so pretty much let it munch on hay in between these two feedings.

                Try getting a hay rack so that she can always have fresh hay to munch on and you will waste less hay. I wouldnt buy any corn husk toy cause it can cause health problems. How old is she ? Whats her weight ?

How can you know a toy is made of corn husk ? because I got 2 toys for Christmas and their was no tag because it was removed . so how can I know if it is made of it ? because I do not want her to be hurt .

                    According to some websites you are not feeding her enough of food. A 6 pound rabbit should be getting 3 cups of veggies everyday. 1 cup per 2 pounds. About the corn husk toys I can’t really tell you how to check if it’s corn husk or not. If you can post a pic of it on here would be great , if not possible you can write on Google ” corn husk rabbit toys ” and see if they look similar.
