Hi there. One of my little girl buns has a bit of an upset tummy - the 3 buns usually get one green leaf a day, but the kids gave them 2 the other day and it seems to have upset little buns tum. I will stop the greens until her tummy gets better, but they normally have a handful of dried herbs, pellets and hay in the day. Do I stop the herbs as well and just have them on pellets and hay? I have some plantain being delivered today - wondered if I should be giving them this or just hold off for a while.
Also, I have just changed their straw to regular bales of straw from the farm as opposed to pets at home straw - would this have had any impact - the straw is not as nice, but so much cheaper.
Another thing ... (sorry massive post!). My buns have a wooden nest box in thier hutch and they seem to just use it as a toilet - when we lifted it to clean them yesterday, one side was very wet and full of poo, so have removed the box and put a large litter tray in the corner with some carefresh in it - is this a bit mean .. should I leave the box in the hutch?
What do other people use for litter - carefresh is so lovely and soft but soooo expensive!!
Thank you!
