Gluten Free Bunny Food?

Hi all,

 

I'm having the hardest time playing with my rabbit without getting sick!  He's a really sweet animal and I've had him 5 years and really, really don't want to part with him.  Whenever I take him out a lot and spend a lot fo time with him (which he requires - he's needy!), I get cc symptoms.  This has been going on for a year and a half now since I went gluten free.  Please help!  This oscillation of me getting sick followed by not playing with him for a couple weeks is not good for either of us.

 

Thanks!

I don't know how you buy your hay. I buy mind at a local farm store because paying $20 for a dinky thing of hay at the pet store seems criminal when I can buy a bale of hay for $5. Something to keep in mind though is if you buy alfalfa hay, it is not unusual at all for the rotation crop to be barley or oats, or sometimes even orchard grass. This can lead to a minor risk of CC from his/her hay if you use alfalfa. My local farm store used to carry grass hay but hasn't had it lately. Oh well, she is twice as crazy for alfalfa. Spoiled brat.

 

My bun is very snobbish and wouldn't dare deign to lower herself to something like playing with a human. I guess I lucked out there. When she does demand things like petting and attention though, I am careful to always brush her hair off of me then wash my hands. If her hair clings I change my clothes.

 

The best forum or website I can suggest is binky bunny. It was a great resource for me when I was getting ready to bring Freya home and when I first got her. You'll probably find a lot of info on a good balanced diet of veggies and such from bunny experts and may even find a good source of gluten free pellets. I haven't bothered finding any since my furry baby is such a snobby brat.

      This was one I tried w/o issues using gluten-free flour. It gets confusing the 121 cup for cup. Especially the price of it.

      That's an idea. I have found good chocolate chip recipes that mimic tates cookies or other chocolate chip cookies with gluten-free for without an issue. I have seen recipes from chef Alina looping whisk etc that have gluten-free flour but they are trial and error. I guess I will have to mix and match. I made my own flour using flax meal corn flour potato...

      Gluten free flours can be very different, even from one manufacturer. For example, King Arthur has two certified gluten free flours that act quite differently in some recipes. I find that it is best to use the recipes on the website of the manufacturer of the flour, although I often bake for a shorter time than listed. I like this recipe for chocolate...

      Are you supplementing any vitamins?  Recently added medications? the ones that helped me the most noticibly was increasing vitamin D blood level to 80 ng/ml and Iodine to 500 mcg once or twice a day, Thiamine, Choline, and Iodine, B6 speeds up gastric motility, gastric motility, which is the movement of food through the stomach, is primarily achieved through peristalsis. Moving food faster helps bloating. 10,000 IU vitamin D 500 mg Thiamine or more Choline  brain fog, fat digestion.  Since the recommended reduction in red meat and eggs, experts estimate that only 10% of the population eats the minimum RDA., 500 mg.  Choline is a large percentage of bile.  Many Celiacs are first diagnosed as Gall Bladder surgery candidates.  It works for a while, fut the the symptoms come back. Iodine – 600 to 1200 mcg of Liquid Iodine Vitamin B2 helps break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. It plays a vital role in maintaining the body's energy supply.  500 mg Pantothenic Acid vitamin B5 Low fat yogurt.  My favorite brand is Stonyfield.  Pasture fed means an omega 6:3 ratio of 1:1.  Comercial dairies feed grains and have omega 6:3 ratio  of 5:1.  Omega 3 is healing, omega 6 is inflammatory. No fat yogurts, including greek style has various gums added to replicate the fatty mouth feel, and these gums like guar gum can have several side effects, especially if low vitamin B6 causes poor gastric emptying. Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids in Vegetables  Eating more of the vegetables low in omega six and high omega 3 can reduce inflammation. The American diet is fortified.  Gluten free foods are not.

I have found good sandwich bread at Whole Foods called 365 which is under $4 for a regular loaf you won't realize its gluten-free or the Promise bread brand. Making your own sandwich bread seems like a bunch that break apart etc. Eventually I will have to try one.

      Thankyou so much for your replies. I have been gluten, dairy, egg and soya free for 5 years, and am mainly symptom free following an extremely strict diet but still symptoms flare up again and I have to do an elimination test to determine the cause.. basically my intolerances are still developing and I've found I can't eat: apples, grapes, raisins and other dried fruit, spinach, potato, tomato, onion, cabbage, leek, broccoli, mushroom, oily food, coconut oil, pork, sulphites, alcohol, spirit vinegar... I have difficulty breaking foods down, especially the skins of fruit and veg. I have been trying to reintroduce gluten in order to have a reliable ttg blood test, but I'm in so much pain.. abdominal spasms, joint and muscle pain, bloating etc etc, this is all from having half a wheat crispbread. I'm not sure if this is celiac or something else as there seems to be no sign of it getting any better.
