Question
Hi my name is sarah and i got a pet rabbit for christmas this year and i was just wondering what i should be feeding it. I have been feeding it some pellets and some other dry rabbit food as well as a piece of fruit or vegetable each day but i am a bit concerned about my rabbits poo because it has been a bit runny sometimes and he does it quite often too.i am just worried it is because of what i have been feeding it! I really appreciate the time you have put into reading this and i really do hope you can give me a good answer. Thank-you for your time!

Answer
Some really useful information for you would be at http://www.rabbit.org/care/new-bunny-index.html especially the diet information.

Depending on the age of the rabbit, he or she may be too young to be giving fruit and veggies to.

Pellets and hay are a great diet for a rabbit, once he or she is stable on that and producing nice solid poops then you can start adding veggies.
