Are your products only safe for bunnies?
Although our shop is marketed towards bunnies, a lot of other small animals, such as guinea pigs and hamsters are able to enjoy most of our products too! If in doubt as to whether our products are suitable for your pet, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to assist.
How often can I feed treats & forage?
All of our packaging includes labels with feeding instructions, however, we recommend treats be fed sparingly - no more than once a day, especially those containing fruit as they are naturally higher in sugar. In terms of forage, this can be fed daily as part of a natural diet.
How long do Darling Bun Shop products stay fresh?
This can vary depending on what the product is. Generally speaking, forage can last 1+ years while treats will only stay fresh for 2-3 months due to their ingredients. If stored incorrectly, this time can be much shorter.
We recommend storing our products in airtight jars or Tupperware, ensuring they are kept in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
