In case you need any tips on baby bun diet I assembled some info. :)



Baby Bun diet:

http://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Diet - at what age to feed what

ttps://rabbit.org/faq-diet/ - how much to feed at what age

http://www.therabbithouse.com/diet/diet-baby.asp - read this for baby bunny diet.

Feed a baby bunny alfalfa hay (vs other hay) until about 4 months old, slowly mix in timothy and orchard hays to transition them to be 100% off of the alfalfa hay diet and on timothy/orchard hay by about 6 months old. A good source of hay is important to ensure it’s fresh, tastes good, and is no dusty for your bunny. All hays are not made equal, so do try to get the good one vs just what’s on the shelf of a pet store. I can recommend this hay as being really good https://shop.smallpetselect.com/products/alfalfa-hay?variant=1163314957 and they also also a sample box that would be a great thing to mix in as you later transition off alfalfa. For adult bunnies do not offer alfalfa hay as it has too much protein and calcium; alfalfa hay is given to baby bunnies. Too much calcium in the urine and in the bladder can lead to bladder sludge and stones.

Pellets are secondary to food and should be given to bunnies in limited quantities. For baby bunnies you have to limit a lot less (for adults it is no more than 1/4 cup per day for a 6 lb bunny), but still better to limit some to encourage them to eat more hay from a small age. Oxbow young bunny pellets are good (avoid anything with any colorful bits to it and stick to hay/grass based as much as possible. Again you will want to slowly transition them to adult food just like with hay starting right about at the same time, since adult bunny's should not have alfalfa.

Only introduce veggies after 12 weeks of age and in very small amounts! The baby bunny diet linked above talks about how and when to introduce veggies - the key is to do it slowly and let the delicate gut adopt. Watch for any symptoms of issues. If you see any changes in behavior - lethargic, in pain such as moving less, or pressing tummy to the ground, loss of appetite, less poops or abnormal poops, take the bunny to a RABBIT SAVVY vet immediately don't wait a day to see if it goes away. Absolutely not fruit or treats until 6 MONTHS OLD!
