Small dark poop doesnt really mean too much protein. It is more indicative of too little fiber in the diet. Darker poop can also mean more moisture in the diet, as a rule from an increased intake of fresh greens.

Size is more worrying than color. If she is on a hay only diet, I understand that it is hard to gauge how much hay she eats every day,,…[Read more]

Happy news! Thanks for the update!

To be clear, garden select is a type of pellets in the Oxbow brand. There is a separate garden select adult and garden select young rabbit. The difference between garden select and normal oxbow pellets is the ingredients. One is not necessarily better than the other, as both give the needed nutritional value.

Ty so much! I agree and I think Tyb does too 😛

I use what I believe is called a boot box? It’s large and flat and typically meant to put tall boots under the bed, I believe. They were cheap and are sturdy enough to hold. Unlike cat boxes, it doesn’t have a hood,  but I’ve found it large enough for my 5lbs rabbit. My 2.5lbs rabbit finds its roominess nice as well. There is much less hay…[Read more]

I dont think the food is too old for her taste. Hopefully this is just stress from the new puppy. Rabbits are territorial, so any new pet in the territory can affect them rather profoundly. Keep keeping a close eye!

I’m from England and we pretty much have the same brands as the US, just that I think Oxbow is that little bit more expensive.

I feed my 3.5 month old Excel Burgess pellets (alfalfa at the moment as he’s still young) but these go down a treat and I believe they’re very popular here because it’s the one brand I see everywhere – pet shops,…[Read more]

@princedorianthebun oh believe you me, it is never an easy feat to get pictures i think i just got lucky 🙂 tyb loves the tunnel! i’m so glad i got it

@DanaNM they look so sweet and elegant munching on their veggies haha

I actually wish there was a shelter close by to me, I would have loved the opportunity to help out but alas, from my research…[Read more]

ok thanks Louie

yes I will keep in mind what you said  so Oxbow for adult hay/pellets and garden select for baby buns

are you in America or England(you don’t have to answer this question if you don’t want too)know they sold it in America

some people feed their rabbits both alfalfa hay and pellets, but if a rabbit gets free fed alfalfa pellets and eats regular timothy hay, they receive enough nutrients and fiber. My bun was being fed timothy hay and alfalfa pellets and I continued the same way after adopting him.

so I can feed a baby bun timothy hay and give them alfalfa pellets

is this the usual way people give it to them

or do some people feed their baby buns alfalfa hay and pellets?

Aww what cuties from everyone! i adore shelter bunnies, they are so sweet and loving, they usually adore attention.

Grooming is actually a good sign! Sick bunnies won’t groom themselves, so the fact that she’s grooming means she’s feeling better.

If you’re worried about her tonight there is no shame in checking on her throughout the night. I even slept on the floor with Bun Jovi when he had stasis, but that was before we had been able to get to the vet (he got…[Read more]
