Hi, :wave: I'm new to the forum and have a 5 year old dwarf lionhead called Honey.
With the very extreme cold weather we have been having I've noticed that she has been eating huge amounts. She has always been a good feeder and very trim with it.
She's an outdoor rabbit who is fed Burgess's Dwarf Rabbit feed along with plenty of greens and carrots, also plenty of hay. Usually in Winter there isn't much difference in her feeding habits but at the moment she's clearing anything that I give her. Normally if I give her a treat stick once a week and it will take her a few days to finish it, but now she's finishing it overnight. She's never been keen on brocolli and will usually leave it, but last night she ate a full stalk from a head of brocolli.
I have increased her feeding, but just wondered how much I should be increasing it by? Any advice would be welcome.
