        We recently brought home a 12 week old Netherland Dwarf bun. We constructed his run this morning and noticed in the process that our grass is very mossy.

        We put him out in it this morning and he didn’t seem too fussed just very inquisitive and a bit nibbly. My husband took him out when he started eating more as we are meant to ease him into grass.

        But I’m just a little worried this mossy grass might not be good for our bun? Any advice? I won’t know what to do if it’s not because the whole lawn is like it!

          Hi Gypsy bun! I just did a quick forum search and the majority of posts here seem to agree that moss is toxic for buns. I also did a quick google search and there seems to be a few ways to remove moss naturally (i.e. not using any chemicals that would be bad for a bun), which might be something you could try. Depending on how much lawn his run involves, it might be an idea to just remove the moss in the area that the run covers. (Bear in mind I have no experience of owning a lawn so I’m just making assumptions here.) If that’s not an option though, you could perhaps use a tarp or some kind of covering to stop bunbun eating the grass. That way he still gets to enjoy the great outdoors without risking anything.

            Yes, I did a search too, I got mixed results some say its fine, others say it’s toxic. Ditto to toki and maybe try removing it naturally, just to ensure total bunny safety.
