New Kit
Hi,
I'm Bren and live in Colorado.
We just adopted a bunny from a couple who had taken over care of the bunny from a teacher who had got her for a class pet, then realized that she was allergic to her. Now the couple has to move in a few weeks and couldnt take the bunny.
Soo, here I'am.. I have her.. and am not real sure what to do with her. She is really shy of us still, though it has only been since Sunday eve that we went to pick her up.
I have lots of questions... 'specially about diet. The couple had been feeding her 2 times a day, a whole bowl of mixed greens(I'm not real sure what mix this is) with parsley,mint(I dont know that either, spearmint, peppermint) and basil, along with another bowl of fresh fruits such as blueberries & blackberries with the occasional strawberry added in 3 times a week, plus hay and a 1/2 cup of pellet mix(though this had dried fruit mixed in it as well) Is this tooo much food for her? I think she is pretty fat, but weighed her last night and she is only 7 lbs, though she feels and looks like at least 15!! :lol:
Any help or suggestions would help me out tremendously as I have never had or been around anyone with a bunny.
