Flo & Humphrey

Flo and Humphrey are two of our older guests, but who seem quite good for their age. Since being with us they have mastered the ramp in their two tier hutch, and are now tearing around, to the point that Humphrey managed to knock the ladder down.
They did however manage to get to the top deck for their tea, and Humphrey seems to be really enjoying his piece of carrot.
When Flo initially came to stay her owners mentioned that she occasionally gets a sticky bottom. Flo and Humphrey usually have Burgess Excel biscuits and sometimes this can have this affect on older bunnies. Therefore we gave her some Science Selective Mature pellets (slowly introduced over a period of days) and this appears to have resolved the problem.
We don't usually make changes to rabbits diets in this way, unless we feel it would be of benefit to them. Hopefully their owners will agree with our decision and carry on with this feeding regime.
