  So this Thursday marks 6months for Luna. Should i just automatically start feeding her 1/4 cup pellets? She still is on and off for eating her hay. Will she start eating her hay when she realizes her pellets aren’t unlimited as they used to be. I’ve picked her up a bigger litter box so she has more room to sit and eat her hay.

  I’d cut back gradually rather than stop unlimited pellets abruptly. Rabbits tend to do better on slow-ish dietary changes than swift ones. Hopefully she will eat more hay now, but she might need some time to adjust to eating and digesting more hay and less pellets.

  There probably wouldn’t be any ill effects, but it’s always better to makes changes slowly with rabbits. It will give her some time to adjust.

  Try to brush her as best you can and keep in mind they can get a bit of tummy upset during shedding. Gas drops are good to have on hand! My bun is molting like crazy right now. Yaaaayyy…not 😖

  Thanks everyone.
  
  @Bam Awe, sorry to hear that. Hopefully the shed crazy will end soon for you. I just picked up a furbuster and it’s a must have.
