I have two dutch rabbits, aprox 7/8 mths old. They always have hay and fresh veg in the morning, and fresh veg and pellets in the evening. The past few days, half the veg is being left and a few pellets left last night which is unheard of as they will normally eat everything in sight!
Other than that they seem in good health if perhaps spending more time in the indoor part of their hutch.
Any ideas anyone?

Hi,
you have not stated what sex they are, if they are male and female then they are more likely to be interested in each other than food. on the other hand if they are to males or female then they may be working out how is the dominant rabbit or they may be fighting. Another thing it could be would be a sudden change of weather. if it has gone hot to cold or the other way then that can cause loss of appetite. Has they rabbits food changed at all. if this has happen it may have upset them as you may know rabbits have very sensitive stomach and it does not take a lot to cause problem.
What i would suggest would be to keep and eye on what they are eating and drinking and make sure that they are going to the toilet and it looks the same, if you are still having problems, take them to a vet to get their teeth checked as these do grow very fast and can grow into the cheeks causing them not to eat.
Hope every thing sorts it self out for you.
