How does it come about that your rabbit bounces two hops to the left, turns and bounces only one to the right before turning and bouncing two to the left and then turns to bounce back one hop to the right only to turn and have room to bounce two hops to the left, and so on?

Some dancing fruit and veg?

(although on second thoughts the bunny and the carrot might not be a good combination....)

Ok I am sure Thumper would really love the carrot as did my Pinky, Perky,Cottontail and Flopsy (ok, my daughter's rabbits before the jokes come flooding in). So where do rabbits find carrots in the wild. Basically it is us humans wot give em carrots, lettuce etc and too much of these things as far as i am aware is not good for bunnies. Dandelions are yummy the above mentioned used to say - sadly all deceased bunnies now :( . Dried food is also good.

Ok, I now wait to hear from bunny experts, vets etc telling me I don't know wot I'm talking about.

Rabbits are not native to the UK, they were introduced from mainland Europe.

Dutch carrots are apparently blue.

Therefoe orriginally rabbits may have been able to find carrots in the wild.

I think rabbits came across with the Romans.

Apparantly, all carrots were originally blue skinned (with orange interiors), but because there is not much blue food, the blue was removed by selective breeding in the 19th century.

I know that Sainsbury's launched a blue carrot a couple of years ago to much fanfare, but don't know what happened since.
