What To Feed A Young Rabbit
Timecodes:
hey guys this is Abbie and in this video
I'm going to be talking about what to
feed a young rabbit
so I already covered adult rabbits in
another video so in this one I'm going
to be covering rabbits from eight weeks
to seven months so like always water
should be fed unlimitedly
and you can provide water in a bowl or
bottle I prefer using bowls but that's
just me some people like bottles better
but just make sure you always have fresh
water available for your rabbit when
you're stuck in the box do you need help
next up is hey young rabbits should be
fed unlimited alfalfa hay alfalfa hay
has a lot more protein which is good for
younger rabbits as they're growing but
for older rabbits that much protein
really isn't good for their system when
they're young you really should feed
alfalfa hay or a mixture of alfalfa hay
and timothy hay or something like that
and at seven months you should start
switching over to timothy hay you don't
have to switch over really quick you can
do it over a month when they're like six
to seven months old but just make sure
they're eating plenty of hay next up is
pellets you should feed unlimited
alfalfa pellets to your bunny up to
seven months but now this doesn't work
for everyone
sometimes a rabbit will just eat way too
much pellets and they won't even touch
their hay which really isn't the best
thing even for baby bunnies they really
should be getting more used to hay than
pellets so in storm was a baby I limited
his pellets quite a bit because he would
just eat too many and it caused problems
and I even ended up switching him over
to Timothy pellets when he was only
about four months old instead of seven
months because they just really weren't
working well for him so it's really
different for everybody you can find
what works best for you some people feed
Unlimited and their bunny does fine with
it but for some rabbits you may have to
limit it down to half a cup of day they
may eat way too much there are tons of
alfalfa pellets out there just because
it's the most common if you want a more
high-quality one I would get Oxbow just
make sure your pellets do not have any
other stuff in them besides bee pellets
and
for veggies go I don't have any left so
this tiny little piece is all I have to
show at 12 weeks so three months old you
can start introducing veggies in very
small amounts obviously bigger than this
and just give a little bit a day like
maybe four times the size but just give
a little bit and wait a day or two see
how they react to it if they like it if
they don't if it upsets them at all and
you can slowly build up that veggie over
time you have plenty of time to
introduce veggies and once they take a
liking to a veggie you could try another
veggie just same way just little bits
just keep introducing veggies and by the
time they are 10 months to a year old
you can feed the full amount of one cup
per three to four pounds that you rabbit
waste it's really nothing to worry about
introducing once you get started and you
just don't worry about it that much and
as for treats girl you really don't have
to feed many treats just tiny pieces of
carrot or teeny-tiny pieces of a
store-bought treat from like Oxbow is
really all they need rabbits really
don't need treats at all and some
rabbits respond really negatively to any
sugar feeding a little bit of fruit or
carrot as a tree really won't hurt them
and it is fun to give your rabbit a
treat that they go crazy over every once
in a while hey guys that was it for this
video I'll have some links down below to
some web pages if you want to read a
little bit of what to feed your rabbit
