        How do you feed bonded rabbits and make sure they get enough pellets and greens?

        I have to rabbits, but they are not bonded yet, but hopefulle soon. But i am a bit concerned about food, because one of them is such a gluton and eats until nothing is left, and then goes straight back to the hay. But the other one he likes to save hes pellets to eat when he feels like it. So i am afraid that when i put them together that my little gluton will just eat the other guys food when he dont want anymore.

        So any one have any tips as to making sure one wont get fat and the other wont starve?

          I have one who goes crazy over anything and my other who could care less about food, and they are bonded together.
          Your bond may make the buns see there is someone who is there to eat the other food so they will want to eat.

          As for pellets, I give mine when we do tricks at night so they each get the same about and no one gets shorted. You may just have to end up separating them when they eat until they can both share the food equally. Mine are both doing great and no one is fat or underweight for the past 2 years, so you don’t know how they are gonna act until you have them bonded!

            I fed my rabbits the same amount of food when they were bonded as when they were seperate. But if one of the your bonded bunnies are eating all of the food, just put the food bowls on separate sides of their cage. Put the said rabbits in front of their separate bowls, and they can eat as much as you need.
