  I give my bunny food pellets by Bunny Nature (Basic) around 50 grams a day. But I can tell she doesnt like them. There are like 15 pellets in the bowl every morning and they last up until next morning. She used to love the previous pellets I gave her (for baby bunnies) but now she doenst fancy these at all. Should I change pellets? Or maybe it is okay that she eats it, but just doesnt like them and eats slowly?

  Are these new pellets timothy-based? And the old ones were alfalfa?
  
  If so, it’s normal for bunnies to not like the timothy ones as much, but it’s what they should be on. She’ll probably get more used to them as time goes on. I wouldn’t switch her back.

  Bougatsa, I wouldn’t worry. She will adjust. Rabbits don’t like change. It is actually a good thing she isn’t devouring them fast. They are a concentrated feed and rabbits as a grazing species should just nibble at things all the time, mostly hay and vegetable matter.

  I introduced these pellets like 2 months ago and she still shows little interest in them.. I think they are also alfalfa based and they are the best we can find in Greece… If it is a good thing then it’s ok with me.
