Teds future wife needs some help

[lauralittleninja]

We picked up Mable yesterday who is hopefully going to be teds wife. She is a rescue bun and as far as I can see so far , doesnt seem to know shes meant to eat hay ?! Her poos r mis shaped and soft and squidgy but not runny. She has had some greens this morn as shes used to greens but really id like to cut everything out apart from hay to get her munching! Any tips on how I can get her nibbling more? The hay I am offering is from timothyhay.co.uk so top notch yummy stuff .

She may never have been fed much hay, so getting her to eat it may be a long drawn out process. I assume that she was Vet checked and that her teeth are all OK ? If she has so far been on a poor diet then Dental problems are likely to be an issue.

There are a wide variety of hays available from here :

This is an all time favourite for my Rabbits

And when she starts living with Ted she will most likely get into eating hay when she sees him eating it. So, I wouldn't be too worried at this moment, just give her time to settle and she will get there.

Thanku for your replys . Iv been monitoring her this afternoon and she has been eating a bit more hay than yesterday so hopefully she is just settling in soon. She has been checked but I am taking her to my own vet on wed to have a full body mot done as I have recently found a new rabbit savvy vet who is the bees knees .
