Do some buns eat slower as they reach adulthood?
As in title, Dumpling always used to finish her meal first when they were little but now Treacle finishes first and then tries to nick Dumplings food Seems strange its swopped over, I'm going to weigh her tonight just to make sure she isn't loosing weight. She is as excited as ever to have her food and will nick anything she can from me, anyone else notice this happen?

I cant say I have noticed anyBun here eating more slowy as they become an adult. It does happen when a Bun has Dental problems, even in the very early stages. So if you are actually noticing her eat a lot more slowly I'd get your Vet to check her teeth

I was thinking teeth hopefully its just me not measuring it out equally, will weigh her and see how we go, any worse and she will be straight to the vets.

I agree with Jane, usually when this happens it's a sign of dental issues and invariably it will lead to one bunny loosing weight and the other gaining.
Even in my pair who BOTH have dental issues I have one chunky bun and one thin bun. It makes co-ordinating rations very difficult indeed.

Weighed her last night and she hasn't lost any, very carefully measured out their food last night and this morning and they were both finished at just about the same time, maybe me panicing a little early

Bunnies should come with a warning that their hoomans will no doubt develope a significantly reduced panic threshold !!
