Welcome to BB!

I have a couple, but here is my name’s sake, Wick! This is a popular picture of him when he was molting, haha.

I agree that it looks relatively healthy and non-concerning at this point. If flakes continue to form/populate, I’d be more worried, but an occasional dry skin patch/flakes from normative molting is fine! Many rabbits will have patchy molts, where sections of fur release, exposing bare skin for all to see.

A roll of kraft paper can go a long, just like toilet/papertowel rolls too! Also just switching up the environment a little can be stimulating so the rabbit can explore in “new spaces” without actually moving.

Welcome Rabby and Ritter to Binkybunny~!

Hi and very welcome to the BB forums! Hello Ritter!

Wonderful news!

If he is eating enough by himself you can stop the CC, but unless he hates it very much it doesnt hurt to keep him on a serving per day for a few more days just to make sure he gets all the nutrients he needs. Rabbits prefer to eat by themselves, there’s very little risk that he’ll get “spoilt” and prefer CC to normal rabbit…[Read more]

Hi. I’m Rabby. My bun’s name is Ritter 🙂

<p class=”p1″>Hello. Thank you for the reply!</p>
<p class=”p1″>The vet said upon examination she didn’t think it was necessary to take an X-ray of the teeth. </p>
<p class=”p1″>Max started peeing and pooping yesterday! Throughout the day the poop became more round. It’s still relatively small and dark but it looks so much better than the fir…[Read more]

Paper towel rolls stuffed with hay and a few pellets hidden inside are very easy and popular with buns 🙂

You can also make a paper mat by weaving newspaper or leftover packaging paper together. You can also make a hide out of a cardboard box and then stuff it with leftover packaging paper for the bun to dig and burrow around in. If you can find…[Read more]

Thank you so much for replying, i was already so anxious!

It’s my first time as a bunny mom and as long i got educated by my veterinary before i adopted Missô, some surprises keep happening hahaha.

I’ll keep an eye on her and see how the fur loss and dryness is going. Thank you so much again!

Rabbits can get dry skin when they molt, so that could be what you’re seeing.

Most (probably all) rabbits have mites on them. They get them from their mother. Its perfectly normal as long as the rabbit’s own immune defense keeps the numbers low. Just keep an eye on it, if it is mites that need treatment, it will get “worse”, i e more skin flakes…[Read more]

I agree. This sounds like EC, especially if this “white line” is inside the eye (uveitis) since this is most commonly seen in younger rabbits. The good news is it is treatable and the treatment is relatively inexpensive. You do want to get on top of this right away though so it doesn’t cause more damage. EC can affect so many things and the…[Read more]

Ok Ty we will be getting him to the vet as soon as possible

Hi Rabby_Rabb, in young rabbits the appearance of a white line in the eye can indicate infection with the parasite E. cuniculi. It is treatable but should be addressed ASAP to prevent further damage. Blindness in rabbits is not actually a huge problem for them, but the parasite can cause other neurological damage and paralysis/seizures if left…[Read more]
