First just wanted to say I’m sorry about the loss of your female. 🙁

Neutering in males is mostly for behavioral reasons, usually things like poor litter habits, spraying, and aggression. Excessive nipping and mounting attempts can also be obnoxious. Unfortunately, unspayed/neutered bunnies are often surrendered at shelters for the same reasons…[Read more]

I’m not familiar with the brand you mentioned, but you can make a pellet mash if you need to syringe feed. Sherwood forest also makes a recovery food that I’ve used (seems to work fine, some of my bunnies prefer one vs the other so I usually try offering both), as does Science Selective (that I have not used).

Agree with LBJ10. This is unfortunately a common problem. We actually have a pinned post about it that might be helpful: https://binkybunny.com/forums/topic/help-why-are-my-rabbits-fighting-by-dananm/

Sounds like a scuffle happened. Babies tend to get along with everyone, but once they start becoming hormonal you may need to separate them to prevent fighting and injuries. They can be rebonded later after everyone is spayed/neutered.

I agree with Wick. Either syphilis or some kind of injury that’s become infected. Best to have a vet take a look. If it’s syphilis, you may need to treat all of the bunnies.

Another idea is it might be an injury that is crusting over. Either way, I suggest taking your rabbit…[Read more]

Thanks for the information! I actually do have separate piles of hay for him. He has one in a big bowl at the center of his home and one in a feeder above his litter box.

Thank you so much for the reply! He does have 24/7 access to his pellets but only in his cage. Often I do see him hop into his cage and eat some but he doesn’t seem to be constantly eating as he is out of his cage almost all day.

I will try changing his hay and adding some fun to it with the towel/toilet roll tubes and the egg cartons. Along with…[Read more]

Thank you so much! I will be sure to get him neutered very soon.

Yes but just a male black lab dog and they get along great.

Great! I’m so glad. I was thinking it wasn’t but then I read more into and was confused. Thank you for an answer!!

Ok, that’s a relief to know! Thank you so much for giving me an answer!
