  Hello, I’m new here and I’ll be posting a lot of questions because I’m bringing home an 8 week old bunny at the end of the month! I know the new home transition can be very stressful for pets, especially babies, so I’d like to have some of your tummy tea on hand, but is it safe to give to such a young bunny? Thank you!

  Hi Casandra, you found a great place to ask questions about your bunny! I will have to defer to someone else regarding the tummy tea for a young rabbit since I haven’t used it myself before. Have you read the House Rabbit Society information regarding bunny diet? It is especially important to read when you are getting a young bunny. You can find that information here: http://www.rabbit.org/faq/sections/diet.html#babies
  
  There are also somethings you can do to help reduce the stress during the transition. Once you bring your bunny home, allow your bunny to get used to his or her new surroundings. Putting something like a cardboard box with a entrance cut out in the side, or something else your bunny can go into to feel safe will help. Resist the urge to play too much with your bunny right away, and give him or her a little time to relax. Also, I always try to keep my bunnies on a schedule of when I feed them, give them their veggies, and clean their cage. It seems to help them feel more comfortable and it helps me make sure I don’t forget anything!

  I know a rabbit owner who offers these amazing herbal teas to her bun as a treat, but I never cared to research info on it.
  Good luck.

  Good question. I will ask the supplier. Though she is very conscientious and I am sure would have noted if it were to be given to adults only, however to be 100% sure, I will need to contact her. I will let you you know the answer within a couple of days — I’ll post it here.
