when i feed veggies my buns hardly eat hay and whn i dont feed veggies they eat hay so what should i do ??

I would drop the veggies, or reduce the amount you give them. Bella is so greedy and never ate hay because i was feeding her too many pellets and veg, ive cut pellets and veg she has veg mayb once a wk and now she muches hay all the time.

Yes, I think reduce too - they say that hay is the very best thing, so I'd go for that over the veg

I have been having a similar issue with Herbie. Now that Inca is not here I was feeding him half the veg that I would have given both of them, he ate it but was hardly eating any hay. Then me and OH realised that probably Inca was a gannet and ate about 3/4 of the portion that I put out for the two of them.

So I reduced his veg and now he is munching hay, although I feel mean cos the amount of veg I give him looks rubbish! But as others have said, hay is better
