Hi! I would love to help 🙂

1. In terms of pellet composition and brands, it depends on the age. I would suggest, for babies, the following: either Oxbow Essentials Young Rabbit Food (pretty much everywhere) or Sherwood Healthier & Hoppier Baby Rabbit Food (hard to get hands-on right now, though.)

Thank you wick!

<p data-xf-p=”1″>Little update. Had an appointment at 12:15 with my usual vet, we had a good long chat and went through everything. He said he absolutely agreed with me about going through with a dental to really file the lower molar down to the gum line. He is taking xrays too.

I’d do a vet visit to check for eye infection.

Keep us posted.

I love the smell though 😁
