Wild rabbits should NEVER eat pellets and grass is NOT enough to sustain a wild rabbit. They eat a large variety of weeds/flowering plants...
For crying out loud you don't know what you are doing and you are going to kill this bunny if you don't get it to someone who does! Stop taking misinformed advice from strangers online and give the bunny up.
well, you're one of the stranger online, why should he listen to you?
wild rabbits should never eat pellets? funny that the ones around here eat the pellets that fall or i dump out from my feeders, daily. not eat grass? what do you think they're eating in the wild? grass/weeds, bark, roots. he's not looking for a long-term diet replacement plan. as you so aptly stated, seeing as you are the only one who seems to know what they are doing here and the rest of us are idiots, the little guy probably is not going to make it. infection will set in, more than likely, and so also sepsis.
well, if anyone else has any questions, don't post them in the open forum, pm them directly to the expert
HA, at first I was thinking "wow this lady is a BLEEP, she really freaked out over nothing." Then I realized I quoted your post and now I understand why you got all PO'd...
Sorry to inform you that YOU handed out bad advice but yes, as someone who can google wild rabbit care (and has seeing as we just had one for about 4 days under our care) I thought it would be important to note that a wild baby bunny should NOT eat pellets or just grass. It needs to stay on a diet like it would if it is the wild which is wild flowering plants (dandelion greens are very important) weed plants and some different varities of grasses. Domestic rabbits are really different. Eating the random pellets that fall from the ground is fine for an adult wild rabbit not so much for a baby)
Guess I am the expert
of being able to google and also having VOLUNTEERED at WILDCARE (if you aren't familiar WILD CARE is a wildlife rehabbing facility where I live). I'm still laughing about how clearly upset you are.
I could go on to point out the other issues with things that have been posted about rabbit care if it would make you feel less attacked?? NM...
