Hello all, I am very new to this forum
I am planning on getting a french lop come March- to summer time and have been doing a lot of research on them. I've got a list of everything I need to buy-luckily I'll have an entire room for him!
But, as is the case with research, many people say many different things!
As a kit at 8 weeks- I believe I'll be getting him from this age as I want to have a baby to raise and train and grow used to me etc - do they have formula or pellets? This is the point where they are beginning to have pellets, correct? So should I buy pellets that are for baby rabbits?
Any brand recommendations? I've been looking at Harringtons, Burgees and Wagg, Wagg being the cheapest of the bunch however has a lot of very good reviews.
There i also Selective, a brand I use for my mouse- I feed him the biscuits as I also give him a mix for hamsters and mice and of course he forages so only eats certain things, so the biscuits then give him everything he is missing out on. So would selective be good?
I have no concerns about finding good grass hay for him, just what pellets to feed.
Also, I hear at a young age, as they're still growing, offer up lots of food, as much as they will eat? Then wean it down to a normal amount twice a day as a fully grown adult? Is this correct?
I want my frenchie to be very happy and healthy
