When i feed them treats, or anything other than pellets for that matter, the little one always steals food from big bun while he's chewing! Like if he has a bit of hay in his mouth (hay that i hand fed him, they always have a constant supply but they'll still eat a bit i give them by hand) she will kind of go into a 'panicking for chocolate cake child-you have some and i dont!' state :lol: The thing is, i feed her at the same time. I.e. one treat per hand per bun...she wolfs it down while big bun savors it :) and then while a bit is hanging down or is on the floor while he's eating it she goes in for the attack! Its really funny but i feel bad for him. He never fights back for it bless him :lol: It seems that she always eats all of hers, then she goes and takes his! :S I dont get it, because he's always been the dominant bunny :S
 
My rabbits both steal food some each other's mouths constantly, it's like a very un-romantic lady and the tramp.
 
I think it's something all rabbits do. I try to prevent it as much as possible as sometimes it does lead to fights. I try to give the treat a couple seconds later to the one who eats the fastest :?
