OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

Should rabbits get a mineral block and if so is there an age where they are too young for it? I bought my bun a mineral block and when she first got home she chewed away at it for ages and then I thought – maybe she shouldn’t get it while she is little – so I took it away and have since forgotten about it but I was just wondering what your thoughts are on mineral blocks?

They don’t need one at all. Like salt blocks, they like the taste, but it is not necessary to their health. (I think there may be a question about whether it’s not good for them, like yogurt drops in treats from pet stores are bad for them, yet are still sold.) I’d say toss it and forget about it. He’ll love other treats that are good for him just as much.

Yeah I’ve been really wary of pet shop treats because I can’t imagine them actually being okay for rabbits – I mean, when is a wild rabbit ever going to have yogurt?! haha! I just use some of her pellets as treats while she’s still young and while I look for good treats - You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
