My one year male rabbit wouldn't want to eat for 8 hours. He was fine eat and play then suddenly the symptoms of being uncomfortable and sick showing on him like hunch his stomach to ground until he isolated himself and didn't eat anything. I gave symithcon every hour and and force feed him apple juice and massaging his stomach . I really don't know what wrong with him and I can't reach the vet . So what can I give him food expect from Apple juice? I don't have any products or medicines

Be careful using too much apple juice. It is very high in sugar. If you use it, you should dilute it 50:50 with water. Syringing plain water is best. I have linked an article for you that has in-depth information on how to try and treat this at home until you reach the vet. https://rabbit.org/gastrointestinal-stasis-the-silent-killer-2/
