After my first thread re- castrating my rabbit and his producing horrid poo's Ive done a little more research.
When we were younger we had rabbits and they were fed a "rabbit bowl" of food a day. The food came from the local pet shop and there was no problem. However I'm beginning to see its not always that easy is it!
I feel bad because normally I look carefully into caring for animals and do everything correctly but am slightly ashamed to admit I thought a rabbit pretty straight forward.
Sooo..... I have a male dwarf lop who's about a year old. What should I be feeding him on and in what quantities? and as for hay, I have horses- can I bring their hay home and give him that or is the vacuum packed ridiculously priced mini bales marketed for rabbits better in some way for them? (I would imagine its cleaner perhaps?)
Please can anyone help? I'm feeling awful I may be the cause of his problems.
