Default Rabbit Health Question!!! please help?

Ok my dutch rabbit recently stopped eating her food, she is about two years old. I have been giving her pellots, carrots, and more things but she seems to still be hungry just not touching her food that im giving her. and she is starting to get REALLY SKINNY! and i can feel her spine when i pet her and all of her bones. my other rabbit i just had along with her did the same thing until it recently died! but i want to get her eating more and gain more weight before its too late! please help!I already know about the whole teeth getting over grown thing i have been in 4-h with rabbits getting grand champion every time. and i keep apple branches and things like that for the rabbit to knaw on and i checked her teeth already and they are fine. and i do feed her more than just alfalfa, carrots and pellots....i know quite a lot about bunnies, im thinking the rabbit is obviously sick but i highly doubt my parents are going to take it to a VET and pay money that we dont have to care for a rabbit and i just dont want to see her suffer...i was looking if anyone just had information on what illness it might possible be and maybe how to get her to eat since i can feel her bones! its pretty scary knowing i cant do anything about it and just wait for it to die.

Get your rabbit to the vet right away. It is possible her teeth have overgrown and she cant eat. It could also be something she caught from your other rabbit. You are gonna lose her too if you dont get her to the vet. I hope she will be ok.

He/she is getting sick of the food give her different varities of food! If that doesn't word that means she has a disease and you should take her to the vet ASAP! Hope this helps!

Ever heard of a vet? A vet is a doctor for animals. You take your sick animals their and the vet makes them better.
