Hello Jason, where have you been hiding? :wave::wave::wave:
How many pellets are you feeding? I only feed an eggcup full of pellets per bun per day.
Does bunny have much weight to lose and how much weight has come off so far? The key is to make sure it comes off very slowly.
Well, what happened was, last May after Bernie passed away, I bond Minnie w/ Bobby. And during that spring/summer bonding, which takes a few months, Minnie is the dominant 1. And food that's meant for 2 buns, Minnie ate all of them. That's not the case in the past, as Bernie would have eat at least 1/2.
The other reason is that after Bernie passed away, I feel sorry for Minnie, so during the summer, I gave her extra fruits. So I notice the wt. gain, at least 2 pounds, and she's a dutch, so want her to lose most of it back.
The pellet is about 3 to 4 teaspoon for 2 buns, so I've as of yesterday, cut back to 5 piece only for Minnie. I have also cut out all the veggies, & no more apple slice.
But fruits contains vitamin C which functions as an antioxidant against oxidative gain. So I don't want to kill all of it for the next 3 mth. Every animals need some vitamin C to survive.
So I can go w/ the no fruit option for 3 mth. but put in 1 carrot for 2 buns, which is what I have all these years.
And Karen you smart cookie, I sent you 2 emails, didn't you get it?
