Paws has never eaten hay- he eats pellets and veg, but just sits on his hay. If i put it in a rack- he grabs it out and sits on it.
Everytime i take him to a vet- they say his teeth are fine.
If this is the case- what factors do you think effect teeth.
I have always fed a high pellet diet- of around 100grams per bunny daily+ and a handful or two of hay and a handful of veggies every few days, prior to changing their diet.
Recently i began feeding a diet of unlimited hay, a handful of veg and 10grams of pellets. This doesn't seem to have worked for my buns. I don't know if it's just because my buns have been so used to pellets and not hay that they are not that fussed about hay.
My rabbits have been fine several years without dental issues.
How long does it take dental issues to occur?
Do you know of any rabbits who don't eat hay and don't have dental issues- like paws ?
Thanks alot for your help on this. xx
p.s Ares hardly eats any hay and his teeth are fine. So does this mean the grinding action of pellets is helping teeth wear- it would make sense to me logically.
