I don't want to overfeed my buns, but they do seem to get through a huge amount. Ben, in particular, clears what he is given very quickly and is always wanting more. The twin does aren't as bad.
I give them a large handful of pellets twice daily, along with some veg. Each bun would eat 2 or 3 full cabbage leafs, a couple of sticks of celery, half a dozen brussel sprouts, and a carrot everyday.
They are medium sized rabbits. Does that sound like enough? I was originally worried it might be too much, but they just seem so hungry!
The other thing I was going to ask is how much they drink? The water bottles I put up seem to be emptying very slowly. I have two bottles up for three buns for three days now, and they're both still 2/3 full. I thought they would be drinking more, so I set in a bowl of water last night in case the bottles weren't working correctly (though there are two of them). This morning the water bowl was empty, though I suspect it has quite possibly been knocked over rather than lapped up!
