  I posted on this forum awhile ago about my rabbit having a swollen nose and people said that it looked normal. But today, I checked her nose again and this is what I saw… Swollen nose and yellow crusty things stuck on her nose. What could be the problem? I don’t have a rabbit savvy vet near where I live right now and I don’t know what to do… Please help !! She’s only around 4 months old and has had contact with only her siblings and mama before she came to me as a little bunny and then one female bunny and 2 guinea pigs after that (it’s been awhile since she had contact with them).

  Oh, poor baby! I thought it looked a bit red last time you posted but not abnormal. Hope you can get her seen soon.

  It really is time to see a vet, even if you need to drive a bit to get to one. With that many animals, you should have an established relationship with a vet you like for all of them. Since they are all exotics, try to look in your yellow pages for an exotics vet, if you don’t see anyone you like on the link Monkeybun provided. (My first rec. for finding a good one.)
  We can’t diagnose or treat here, and a small issue is a good time to get a vet set up for the next issue with one of your babies. I know that my vet – with clients in financial hardship – will work with them on billing but she won’t with a total stranger’s first time visit. It is worth your while to get this established.

  It is looking a bit like the lesions from rabbit syphilis. Bring this up with the vet if they dont mention it. It’s easily treated.
  Typically, they get the lesions also in genital area but not always.
  
  I hope you were able to find a good vet.
