I would cut down the amount of pellets you feed, all rabbits should only be given a small amount of pellets only and not a bowl full. In the wild there diet consists mainly of grass and roots. This is a very natural diet for rabbits and will maintain their health

I only give her a 1/4 of a handful of pellets as it is as thats what the vet says to give her.

Buy a taster pack from Hay Experts. You can see which hay your rabbit likes best. Some rabbits don't like certain types of hay.

Try stuffing a tube full of hay, it makes it into a game for them and they seem to enjoy having to pull it out of somewhere.
