I've recently adopted my hairdresser's buns as they were being ignored and not bothered with anymore. They originally came to me for some grass for a couple of weeks, and I'm glad to say they are now staying for good because her little girl 'hasn't asked about them'. They arrived with straw, muesli mix, wood shavings, and their hutch. No hay, nor could I see any remainder in their hutch so I'm not sure they were given it at all.
Since arriving they have enjoyed eating the lawn, endless supplies of hay, and veggies. They are getting friendlier and are happy to come over and say hi and are getting much better at relaxing while I pick them up to go in their grass run. They have also swopped hutches with my guineas so they have more space for stretching and standing.
Funny thing with them is that they love hay, but it has to be bog standard 'no frills' stuff. I thought I would be treating them the other day by getting the PAH stuff with dandelion in but they turned their noses up! Plus, they were only accepting a particular brand of regular meadow hay from a particular local pet shop. Funny buns! Anyway, I 'invested' in a farm shop bale yesterday, figuring the guineas would get through it if it still didn't meet the bun's exacting standards and I'm pleased to report they love it (as do the guineas). Phew! £4 stuff from now on, and it will last for ages. Brucey bonus!
