Which teeth do bunnies eat hay with? :wave:
When we got Mole his incisors had just been trimmed and he didn't eat it. When he stopped eating anything (after a few days of having him) I got a GA dental done and he had a broken molar and some small spurs removed. A week or so on and his incisors have really grown and he's started eating hay. I want to get his incisors removed as they grow really fast and I suspect would need trimming every fortnight which means an hour's round trip for him but also being at the mercy of vets' holidays etc - I wouldn't want a non rabbit savvy vet to do it. But is it his incisors enabling him to eat hay or is it, as I suspect, a new molar has grown in to replace the broken one and he's using that?
Any advice appreciated. Trying to get him to the vet this week. He is eating now so it's not an emergency - there's nothing currently wrong, just thinking ahead...:wave:
