        This is my first post here, so my apologies if this isn’t the right section! I’m a first time rabbit owner and have had my two rabbits for almost three years now. However recently my oldest rabbit has been having digestive issues. I thought it was diarrhea, but from reading online, it wasn’t the case as he had plenty of solid poops. I believe it’s called sludge? Either way, after doing some research, it was suggested to completely take pellets out of the equation until the digestive system is solved. And only feed the rabbit hay. Well, it’s been about a week and no mushy poops.

        Would it be okay to start giving my rabbits pellets and vegetables again? Or should I wait another week. Obviously it’ll be in much smaller quantities. As I was unfortunately giving my rabbit a wee bit too much. So he wasn’t eating as much hay as he should of.

          Slow re-introduction plus monitoring is a fine course of action. You can adjust based on reaction.
