A Note on Treats

So.....What is a wise treat (or treat amount) to let bunny have?
Everybody likes a nice sweet. With bunnies it is very important to watch her sweet intake. Please note that pellets (depending on the brand) and "rabbit friendly" fiesta mixes are almost just as sugary as sweets. It is always better to avoid any store bought treat unless its a very special occasion. ;)
Bunnies like natural foods. And- believe it or not- they like veggies and fruits for dessert! Not only will bunny be healthier but she will be happy too! Bunny would be happy with just 3 or 6 baby carrots. (Remember small bunnies get a little less). Carrot tops are great. So are small apple chunks, pear chunks, and papaya (no seeds). Pineapple is good too.
Give bunny treats 2x a week. Twice a day. Not to much though.
