The cecals are a problem. If you can, get as much of it off and offer it to him to eat. Gross, but really essential that he get those nutrients. I used to have...
Hi All- There was a rabbit sanctuary in Maine. They were evicted from their property and now have three weeks to place 120 rabbits. If anyone know people...
Ok, maybe not me but my bunny needs more fiber for sure. Rocky is an itty bitty bunny who hates his hay and loves loves loves his pellets and he gets lots of...
Hi Jessica, the other thing you could do is make a slurry out of his pellets to mix the hay dust in. I usually do a slurry rather than C.C. when Lucky gets...
My buns LOVE dead, dried leaves from the maple tree outside....they don't have moisture so they wouldn't effect the feces in that way...and they'd still have ...
I never thought of the nutritional value of dried leaves. I wonder if he would eat them. I'll have to check. Does hay dust have larger pieces of hay then...
Not sure whether leaves are OK but my buns chew a lot on aged organic apple branches/twigs I get from www.busybunny.com, and also the wicker tents... That...
The Metamucil might be worth investigating, although you might find out it has too much sugar. I wonder if Astrid could chime in on this issue. My Salty loves...
I think canned pumpkin has some good fiber in it too. Will he eat that? Suzanne ... __________________________________ Yahoo! Mail - PC Magazine Editors'...
Note: this is not for my rabbits. Can anyone give me the name of a farm or supplier who sells *straw* at low cost? I need some dry bales for winterizing a...

You can try Sweet Meadow Farm in Sherborn, MA (next to Natick). I know he sells to farmers (not just bunny people). I think the bales may be like $4.00. Could...
Hi Wilbur, Where is the colony? I buy my hay in Western Mass for no more than $3 a bale. If you need a lot, it might be worth it to save money by driving to ...

Just a thought--has Rocky had his teeth checked lately? (All three of my guys have bad teeth so I look for that everywhere!) The hay dust comes from the...

Rocky does eat canned pumpkin like a maniac. He loves anything but hay actually. The problem is that too much pumpkin and we get more poopy butt and since it...
Unfortunately that is how it is at these shelters. It's such a sad, sad situation and the rabbit (and other animals) are the ones that lose. That's why it's so...
Jessica, Salty eats steel cut oats on a daily basis. Normally I wouldn't give a bun oats every day but he is a special case. He has very watery poops and...
It's a very difficult situation. The MSPCA does tend to put bunnies down with the slightest problem. It is a shame- I wish they tried harder. At the same time...
Oats are high in soluble fiber, which is different than the fiber in hay. They're also high in carbs, as is any grain, so you need to be careful of digestive...
This is not rabbit related, but I thought as rescue-minded people, somebody might have an answer... My friend would really like a gecko (lizard), and she'd...
