My heart stopped - I'd run out of Fenugreek Crunchies!!!

Blackberry & Co

I had to drive out to the nearest pet store that opens late - 30 minutes each way - to make sure the boys had their 'fix' tonight....does that make me slightly bonkers? :oops:
 
You just wait for the stress when you're down to the last few crunchies and the store that sells them has run out :shock: I broke out into a cold sweat as the panic overwhelmed me :lol: now I never let my stock go below one unopened bag so I will have time to order them online if needs be :lol: I couldn't bare to see D&D cry if I told them we'd run out!!!
 
is this a snack for your bunnies?

Yes, it is a "treat" that they go mad for. I am down to my last 4-5, ordered some last week from Hay Experts but they are not here yet. Don't know what the bunnies will do tomorrow if they don't arrive. :?:lol::lol:

I was lucky - they didn't have FCs on their own, but they had some in a mixed bag with other treats (the piggies will eat the other bits :lol:)

Mine have only been having them for a couple of weeks - it was the first bag that I'd finished last night, but now they have to have one each at bedtime :lol:
 
They are only treats so "should" be limited (1-2/day). Not sure I would give a 4 month old them just yet as they are still developing and having foods introduced so may get a dodgy tummy - someone may correct me here.
 
Spenser hasn't had them yet. His current treat is little dried apple pieces (excel, I think). He gets them when I go out to say goodnight to him, takes them out my hand, which is really sweet. :love::love::love:

It's lovely when they snatch them out of your hand, nearly taking you fingers off in the process :love::love::love:
 
after hearin all this fuss on here about these fenugreek crunchies i thought i would buy some for mylo....i never realised a rabbit could get soooooo excited about something. He had never tasted them before but got excited!!! And now everytime i bring the packet in he runs as fast as he can to me and does a binky and nearly rips my arm off so he can have one quick!!!!!
 
I keep mine on their toes. They don't get them every night and some nights they get two. ;)
 
D&D get very excited they run round in circles crashing in to each other and I have to hold out a crunchie each at the same time or I wouldn't like to say what might happen in the frenzy for a solitary crunchie :lol:

Dan and Clo are like that - in fact, Dan stood on Clo's head tonight in his desperation :shock::shock::shock:

Butter can eat his quicker than Blackie, so he ends up with an extra half a one so that Blackie can finish his in peace :roll:
 
Mine have never had them... where do you find them? Although I don't know if I like the idea of them being addicted to something... :roll:

And anyway in Grim's case they would have to be fenugreek soggies. :lol:

I saw fenugreek in the spice section in Sainsburys, was tempted to buy some to try myself and see what all the fuss is about.

Edit: Got to correct myself, I assume buns eat the leaves and the spice is the seeds of the plant, so never mind on the last bit. :) And... just saw the packaging on line. Grim has had them but didn't like them. Trust him to be the odd one out... :roll:

:lol::lol: all's fair in love and war and the fight for a crunchie!! Daisy eats hers so much faster than Dudley she then eats his remaining bits AND steals what she can out of his mouth :shock::shock: I sneak him secret crunchies when Daisys not in the room :lol:

I get my from Animal Magic Pet Supplies online (Holiday Hutch on here)

I did try making some fenugreek cookies for them, but I prefer the crunchies as they're just corn and fenugreek.

Fenugreek is what gives curry it's strong smell.

I think they could live without them, but they get so excited when they smell them :love:
 
They're the only commercial treat mine get now. The other treats are dried dandelion, plantain and coltsfoot. But they're exempt cos they're natural, they just save me some time. :oops:
