  Sorry for all the questions haha. I was just wondering, I know that Loki should get timothy hay at all times. But How much pellets (I bought timothy hay based pellets) should I be feeding a day? she weighs 9.5 pounds. and how much/many veggies should she be getting a day. I finally can now only feel her spine slightly but not at all like it was when I first got her (very boney). So I want to start feeding her the amount and such how she should be fed.

  Check out the link that KK provided but just for a short quickie answer – we follow the House Rabbit Guidelines for spayed/neutered non-breeding bunnies:
  
  General Serving size – 1/4 to 1/2 cup pellets per 6 lb bunny. So since your bunny is 9.5 pounds, I estimate it would be around 1/2 – 3/4 cup. If you find that your bunny gets overweight, then you could cut back. It can also depend on activity. Some bunnies are loungers while others are bouncy balls of energy so that will help you decide whether you should be on the lower end or higher end of amounts.
