  Babbity loves apple sticks. She doesn’t seem to love apples so much though. As I don’t have ready access to apple trees (or anything but oak or sugar maple), I have to buy these sticks. We used to have a number of crabapple trees in our yard but recently had them removed so we could actually grow some grass. My neighbors have a pear tree though that they never harvest and I’m sure I could take some sticks from. Does anyone know anything about crabapple or pear for rabbits? I don’t see them listed on any “safe for rabbit” lists.

  Here’s some info on chewing (and which branches are safe).
  
  http://www.rabbit.org/faq/sections/chewing.html
  
  It does say Pear branches should be dried for a month or more (I guess they’re toxic when fresh).
  
  Edited because I forgot to add the darn link! >.<
