slight concern

Wise Old Thumper
Bobby poo is smaller, she still has a hell of an appetite and eats quite a lot of hay, I have started cutting down pellets as well have been doing gradually throughout last month, she eats a bit more veg, she has coriander thyme mint and some savoy:)

Just wondering whether there is something that I am doing something wrong:?

She has about half a handful Of pelletts (I have really little hands) in the morning and then the same at night, veg at tea:D
 
Are you saying she's lost weight? It could be dental problems, as even if she's eating loads it isn't absorbed properly in dental buns. Or it could be worms - are the droppings normal?

Is she a houserabbit?
 
Yes it could be linked to the reduction in pellets but, you will need to maybe start weighing her everyday and try and increase the hay intake, mine like a sprinkling of dandelion and some Burgess apple snacks (teaspoon) on the hay in the evening to encourage them to nom it a bit more. As long as they are still good poops I would keep an eye on this but, not panick stations yet I don't think. Try alternating with Spring Greens aswell and some basil and dill for variety.:)
