Lots going on at the Homestead behind the scenes that have kept us super busy. We need to downsize our herd to make life a little simpler. My better half broke three vertebrae and we have been trying to reorganize the work flow. That said, there are some proven pedigreed Holland Lops looking to hop to a new barn.

September is !

Rabbits can often be hard to read, but they do express themselves in their posture and behavior. Recognizing pain is crucial in providing effective treatment and care. Here are a few examples of what to keep an eye out for. For more information, please review this post from AMC about expctic pets.

*Not Available*

This is our only WE Harlequinized Black Tort VM Buck with blue eyes. He has the most interesting markings and is such a handsome little man. He is super inquisitive and does zoomies everywhere. I haven’t met a happier bun!

This little guy is our black magpie and he is absolutely stunning. He has one brown eye and one brown eye with a spec of blue in it. He is the sweetest of our boys and will snuggle for hours. This is the most affectionate litter we have had and that is making it hard to part with them.

Good Morning! We would like to individually say Hello Love to each of the babies we have available. This little BEW doe is the absolute most loving little girl we have. She is always begging for pets and stays right with us when she has her playtime each day. She carries heavy VM and possibly WE, but she would make the best companion bun! This girl is absolutely adored and enjoys every minute of it!

Couldn’t have said it better myself!

Let’s talk about your rabbit’s pellets!
Do your rabbit pellets look like the picture on the left, or the picture on the right?
While there are many components to a balanced and healthy pellet, nearly every diet of “plain” pellet will at least be healthier than a pellet with fruit, treats, etc added in!

Why aren’t pellets with added items good?
Well, fruit is very high in sugar, and that’s extra concentrated in dried fruit. If you think about it, a small handful of dried fruit may not seem like a lot, but you have to remember that it has the same amount of sugar as a fresh fruit would! This means a small handful of dried fruit would actually be way too much if it was fed fresh, and honestly it’s way too much fed dry! (This is also true for things like carrots 🥕)
Many of the pellets found in pet stores have quite a bit of dried fruit mixed in. While dried fruits make excellent treats, it should NOT be a part of your pet’s pellets, especially since they would be getting quite a lot of sugar from it.
Spending too long on a pelleted diet filled with things like fruit can cause your rabbit to become severely overweight. This can lead to further health problems down the road, like sore hocks, arthritis, and even issues with litter box habits.
Excess sugar can also cause an imbalance in your rabbit’s gut, increasing the risk of GI stasis. (And you may notice frequent messy poops)

Another common thing added into pellets is cookies, treats, etc. These little rainbow bits are fun, but a lot of times they are made from poor ingredients. (Corn, soy, molasses, artificial color, etc.) Rabbits do find these appetizing, but they are not a well balanced part of their diet and can lead to the same things dried fruits can.
Even if you were to feed a small amount of these types of pellets, all of the excess fat and sugar will most likely cause problems over time. It’s best to switch to a healthy, plain pellet as soon as you can.

And one final note-rabbits WILL pick out every last piece of cookie and fruit, and almost every time leaves the healthy pellets behind! As you probably know, this is a big issue since the rabbit would then be living solely off of carbs and sugars.

While some rabbits never have an issue, it really is best for your rabbit’s health to use plain pellets. Ideally these are free of soy, molasses, and corn, but practically anything is better than sugary mixes. If you want to spruce up your bun’s pellets in a healthy way, add a forage mix of herbs, flowers, etc, or even offer some fresh herbs or greens with their pellets!
