The bunnies are acting weird, in particular Cadbury. They seem picky over their food. I know greens and kale aren't at their best this time of year, but they seem really dissinterested at meal times. They nose it and pick at a few bits then leave, it's mostly gone by next feeding time, but they don't wolf it down like normal.

I'm trying not to worry too much as they're eating plenty of hay and pellets, but their weren't many poos in the main litter tray this morning (Minstrel mostly uses the other one) so I'm assuming mosdt in the main one are Cadbury's and some of them are very dark and small....

In general he seems fine, binkying, grooming and running about and the like. H e just seems unfussed at meal times :?


Any advice appreciated, thanks :)
 
Mine are off their veg too but its a totally different story with the pellets in the morning so i know they are ok!
I know i haven't been able to get very much in the way of nice fresh veg, i managed to get some greens the other day but they were a bit purple round the edges so maybe they do taste a bit 'off' at the moment? They soon ate their slice of banana though!
 
Mine have also been the same the last few weeks.I bought herbs last weekend and they all wolfed them down every night.Spring greens and kale are rubbish at the moment and even smell strange:shock:
 
That's what I have been trying to reason to myself before I do a panic trip to the vets! They'll be living on watercress, spinach and rocket then, but at least they are hay munching :)

Hubby seems to think they done the same last year too.
 
my two aren't impressed with the spring greens at the minute! they sniff them and then eat a few and leave the rest!

going crazy for all other things though so know they're ok! especially my apple i was eating last night! i got jumped on! so i gave them a bit, couldn't resist! :lol:
