All of my rabbits have J-Feeders the pregnant does, and grow outs have a large feeders 2 1/2lbs, the bucks, and non-pregnant does have small feeders not sure how much the small ones hold. For the past few months I have noticed that instead of their normal digging in the feeder to move the pellets into the bowl, they dig, take a bite, dig, take another bite, then dig, dig, dig until literally there is an entire feeders worth of pellets in the drop pans. This happens everyday, and since we just did a big feed switch the stuff we're getting now just costs way too much for a good 70% of it to be wasted.
What's a good way to discourage this behavior so we can stop wasting feed?
