ofc not my intention to let them get ahold of one [emoji2356]

it was this, they’re a vegetarian dog treat: https://www.whimzees.com/products/alligator/

totally clueless as to how they got it as it was on top of the gerbil cage and they couldnt have pushed it down.

not totally eaten but a good chunk is chewed

both are eating fine and there’s output so ?

damn rabbits [emoji849]

I have no idea, perhaps your vet could advise over the phone if it’s likely to be a problem or put your mind at rest. I hope they’re okay x
 
Having checked the ingredients, I would just keep an eye on the rabbits for a day or so. As long as they are eating and pooing normally, I wouldn't be too worried.

NATURAL INGREDIENTS:
POTATO STARCH, GLYCERIN, POWDERED CELLULOSE, LECITHIN, YEAST, MALT EXTRACT, SWEET LUPINE MEAL, ANNATTO EXTRACT COLOR, ALFALFA EXTRACT

dear binkycodie,-I agree with observation,as a precaution,offer lots of grasses,and water-however rabbits are very resourceful .--sweets like sugar products,molasses,will change the gi tract flora to a serious negative effect,with a dreadful serious outcome--sincerely james waller from across the great pond,usa:love::wave:

thank you all :love: they seem to be ok. nice golden output still, i think we've escaped unharmed. have removed the treats and put them in a box which i hope thye won't be able to get ahold of! nothing seems too harmful for them, but ofc not healthy and ideal either.
