Healthy diet for rabbits :D

As I mentioned in my previous previous post, ahaa, I guess I owe you all this one, healthy diet for rabbits.

Not only you can give your bunnies pellets and packed food, you can also give them fruits and vegetables. Provided that you consult experienced people or read from books/internet which ones are good and suitable for rabbits :)


How to change your bunny's diet?

You need to do it sloooowly. Do not just throw away the whole old food and replace it with a new one. Yes, literally, but technically you have to first add small amount of the new food into the old one. Then gradually continue to add more and more of the new food everytime and decrease the old food eventually. This should take a week. Easy right? hehe.

Next.. suitable diet for rabbits. you can use it as your reference and it is as practised by us, Arnab Kami. hehe. no offence. for more info, you can always browse through the internet and think whats best for your rabbit :)


0-3 weeks = mother's milk.. and if the mother couldnt give any, buy kitten replacing milk from nearby petshop :)


After 3 weeks = mother's milk, introduce your rabbits to hay and some packed food. we dont usually give our kitten pellets. hehe.


After 4 weeks = unlimited amount of milk, hay and packed food which kami usually buy this brand Versele Laga for their daily food intake. There are lots and lots of other brands and food content available at the pet store. Just do trial and error and see which one your rabbit prefers.


8 weeks - 6 months = Sufficient amount of clean water, hay hay hay and packed food. Kami used to give versele laga hay but i dont think they are on sale anymore so we recently changed to this another brand, PUIK. They have dandelion, peppermint, herbs, etc etc etc. Rambang mata ne mun meleat. haha. Again trial and error. Try one type at a time and see which one is the best for your rabbits. All they have in store is good, just not sure if they're the right one for your rabbits. hehe.


6 months and afterwards = water. hay. packed food. and starts to introduce to your rabbits some veggies. Veggies like carrots, sawi.. green veggies lah yang pentingnya. hehe. but we do not recommend you to give veggies like cabbage and kangkong atuu. pasal the water content is quite high and it can lead to diarrhea.You want to prevent that. hehe.

And oh, when you introduce veggies to your rabbits, do not give all the trillion kinds of veggies at once. haha. try one kind at a time and see how their fecals like after eating the veggie. If the fecals are not round and solid, your rabbits are in much trouble. hehe.


What to do? stop giving them that veggies and provide them with lots and lots of water and food that you normally give them. okay? If the condition gets any serious, bring your rabbit to a vet ASAP. hehe. Any questions or suggestions, you can always convey them through our email or cbox :D sharing is caring whhaaat ;)

You can also give your rabbits something to chew on. such as a block of wood or sabut kelapa which can be easily get, hehe. Rabbit chew can also be bought from a pet store. It helps to prevent the overgrowth of their teeth. rabbits' teeth continue to grow throughout their lifetime, so yeah. keep their teeth of their size. hehehe :D


Here in our barn, we also provide our rabbits with vitamin supplements. Either in the form of liquid or powder or drops like tablet. The tablets can come in different taste and color. they are milk, berries and another one, i cant recall. haha. All and all the above can be found at a petshop. Go to petvision and they have it all. hehehe.


I always have fun shopping.. SERIOUSLY. not only for clothes and shoes and bags and lots of other stuff *dont blame me for being a lady ;p*, hehehe, but also for rabbits. haha. Pet store is like the only place where my honey and I have common says.. hahaha ;p Mun bali kasut kah beg kah, gerenti i like this, he likes that =_='




So people, thats it on their diet :) remember to always read read read from various different sources, okay? We are here only to help and give you some ideas. hehe. Have a nice day everyone.. cheers!
