Trixie Tube Tunnel With Hay Filling

Hi guys! Today I figured that I would do a review on a product from Trixie, which is one of the most popular and known brands, here in Denmark! Here's what Aiko, Raion and myself thought about it!

The Trixie Tube Tunnel With Hay Filling!
It's natural, rabbit safe wood, and it is filled with hay. On one side it has some dried carrot, and on the other side it has some dried pea. That encourages the rabbits to chew the wood, which is healthy for their teeth. It comes i different sizes and I bought the largest one, in about 30 CM.
Dried carrot and pea does have a lot of sugar, so I wouldn't just leave the log with my rabbits. Instead they were allowed to take a bite of it once or twice a week, until the point where they had eaten all of the dried goodies.
They ate the hay pretty quickly too, and they seemed overall, happy with it!
The wood is quite soft, which is good, since Aiko and Raion doesn't really chew on hard wood. Personally I like the fact that it is natural and that you can fill it up with hay, again and again!

Here's a picture of Raion, who is working very hard to get that hay out, after I refilled it!

Pros:
- Natural
- Safe
- Soft Wood
- Can be reused/refilled
- It keeps them activated
- Not too expencive, at our local Petshop.

Cons:
- Messy
- You have to be carefull with the dried veggies/amount of sugar

Our overall opinion?
(4/5)

The Sweet Life - Smoothie Hearts

I LOVE trying new things for the bunnies, so yesterday when I was making myself a smoothie, I got the perfect idea to a new type of homemade treats.

The idea was to turn my favorite smoothie, into a rabbit safe treat, so if you want to try it out, here's what you need to do:

1) Take some banana, blueberries, strawberries and raspberries (mine was all organic, but that's just my choice, and not a necessity :) ) and put it in a blender.
2) Blend it thoroughly.
3) Add some rolled oats (I find that there are very mixed oppinions on rolled oats. Personally I only use them in treats. It makes everything stick well together and since it is a treat afterall, they don't get that many).
4) When you have a consistency that is thick enough to form the "dough", put it all in a bowl (Just because it is easier).
5) Take a heart shaped cookie cutter, and put a little bit of "dough" in the cutter. When you remove the cutter, you will have a heart shaped smoothie treat, ready to bake!

I never write down how much fruit or rolled oats i use in treats, I just try different things and see what's working and what's not working.
All of the fruits can be changed into other types of fruit or veggies if you feel like it! This is just an example of what I tried!
Remeber that these fruits has a lot of sugar in them, and these treats are not supposed to be a part of a rabbits daily diet!

I hope you guys enjoy! Feel free to send me a message if you have any questions!

Preparing the bunnies veggies

Once a week I take a trip to one of our local shops, to buy veggies for me and the bunnies. All the things I get for the bunnies is then washed and cut in smaller pieces (depending on what it is obviously). After that I mix it all up and place it into veggie-containers, and then just feed them one container full each, every night.
By doing it this way I can make sure that thay get a little of everything everyday, and then I go and buy some other veggies the next week.
It's quite a lot of work on that one day, but I really believe that it is worth it!
This is how it looked last week!

I believe that it is very important to vary their veggies every week to make sure that they get all the nutrition that they need, and also to keep everything "fresh" and exciting! I wouldn't eat the same food every single day for my entire life, so why should my bunnies? :)
