What do I feed him?!
My bunny is soooo picky! He used to be just fine with the food we gave him, but he's so spoiled now! (He's about a year and a half now. I've had him since he was 3months old). He is very specific on the hay he will eat. He only eats soft hay, if it's too hard, he'll grab it from you and spit it out. This wouldn't be a problem, but I can't find a bag of hay that only has soft pieces. He's eating a brand of Timothy hay right now, and only about 1/5 of the bag has "acceptable" pieces. Same with his pellets. He'll eat the big pellets, but once you get to the bottom of the bag and they start getting smaller, he'll flip his whole bowl over so it falls through the cracks of his cage. I don't know what to do! I know he needs to eat, but I can't keep giving in to him either!
The only thing he wil eat with no problem is lettuce and yogurt treats (neither of which he gets very often). Any ideas of what to do??

RE: What do I feed him?!
Does he have toys? I'm not the bunny expert Big Grin but mine needs lots of toys to keep him occupied. If he doesnt have toys, then he throws his food dish all over the cage - full or not. I also mix in carrots & celery in his food, feeding him twice a day. He goes crazy for the carrots then that sort of leads him to the pellet food.

Is there any chance your overfeeding him? Maybe he just doesnt like that brand of food & hay anymore?
