The hay ball has never been a problem mine only has a large enough gap on one side and its on the top part... He only eats the hay while in his tunnel si he pretty much lays down and just sticks a hand out and grabs some
I just use a clean empty can of veggies with the lable removed. Use your finger to check for sharp spots where the can was opened and remove them with sandpaper. Then I just zip-tie them to the wall of the cage. Remove and clean weekly.
My littlest boy eats the most pellets. I see no need to ration the pellets, or hay for that matter. I buy a 20lbs sack of Panr show rabbit and I have 5 chins. I keep it fresher by storing it in a GIANT ziplock bag but by the time we're down to the last 5 lbs or so (6-8 weeks) the boys tell me it's getting old so it goes to a hungry horse and they get a new bag
Oh, and about every 2 days I dump the old feed and clean their food bowl
Sorry about hijacking the thread..but where do you find the really big Ziploc bags?
I really like the veggie can idea. Maybe I will snip the side and roll the edges to make a hook to hang on the cage. or just screw a hook onto the side or something of that sort.

I have 30# of old feed waiting for the horse - even picked up a free underweight one for this purpose, and she's gotten so fat on it I've had to cut back to a handful.the boys tell me it's getting old so it goes to a hungry horse and they get a new bag
Hm with the veggie cans, you make fleece covers for them? Or can you just use the tin can?
You can just use a plain can with the label removed. I have made a simple fleece cover measuring the height of the can and the circumference plus maybe 1/2 inch overlap on the width but not the height, Use Elmer's glue or a hot glue gun to cover. No sewing needed![]()
