I think mint is suppose to be good for tums, obviously introduced gradually.

I don't think Doughnut likes it. I got a spearmint plant just for her and she turned her nose up.

I grow it so give 1 or 2 leaves occasionally.
They seem to like it and never had any issues

mine love it and get it daily.
i haven't had any problems with anything except sage which upset Bud a bit but he has a sensitive tummy anyway!

i feed mint, dill, parsley, basil and coriander every night.

Mine have it and I've never had any issues with it. I only give a small amount though.

Alfie and Harriet will eat it if it's there, but they don't go crazy for it like they do for parsley. Jessie didn't even entertain it.

My buns love herbs the most, they get dill, flat leaf parsley, curly parsley, coriander and mint every day. Sometimes we throw in thyme too. Never had an upset tummy over it xx

Everybun here loves mint! I used to have loads of it growing in the garden before I started letting the buns have garden time. It quickly disappeared! :roll: I've planted some out the front, but it doesn't seem to be growing very quickly. :?

Buckley loves mint. He's never had an upset tummy from it though. He also like a sprig of mint in his water every now and again.

I grow mint and Julie loves it. I only give it once in a while though as a treat.

I think mine must be the only buns in the world that don't like the stuff. Coriander on the other hand is gone in a flash.

I give it occasionally. You'll never forget the look on their face when you first give it to them. They see it's green and go to eat it, then they smell it and look so confused/surprised and wait a second before they decide to eat it.

Well, Charlie nommed it straightaway. Cookie looked at it, put his nose to it and left it until I went to take out his dish tonight and ate it quickly.
