  Ive recently given my bunnies the full run of the garden but since they can eat grass and flowers all day long they’ve lost interest in hay except when it’s evening and I put them in their cage. Do you think this is a problem as rabbits main diet is suppose to be hay?

  Well hay is just dried grass so I can’t imagine it would be a problem. Is the grass treated with anything?

  My rabbit eats less hay in spring/summer when I can get him fresh grass. I have no idea how long evergreen 4 in 1 lasts, but you could perhaps e-mail the company and ask? It’s probably gone by now if you used it last summer. Needless to say, don’t use it this year. It seems to kill off the bunny favorites dandelion, plantain and white clover.
