Yep, it’s very common for young bunnies to have extra un-eaten cecotropes!

Leafy greens don’t have as much nutrition as pellets, they are more for enrichment and they provide some water. Adding in leafy greens is appropriate at this age, but doesn’t really replace the pellets. That said, your vet recommended reducing to 3 tbsp, so I would try…[Read more]

What a beautiful tribute and amazing life he had with you!

oh i didn’t think it was normal because he wasn’t eating the extra ones. cosmo is a mini lop so he’s half his adult weight now so once he reaches it then i’ll switch to the timothy pellets. i’ve never fed him unlimited pellets i started with 4 tbsp. i’ve already lessened the amount of pellets by a tbsp but that’s okay since i’m introducing leaf…[Read more]

oooh good luck!

Ok this is helpful!

So one thing that jumps out to me is that all of these methods were in pretty small spaces. For tougher bonds, the space you use is extra important. I’ve had the best luck in very large, very neutral spaces, such as at least 2 x-pens linked up in the backyard, the garage, or at friend’s house. The idea is that when you give…[Read more]

Sounds like progress! Keep up the good work!

Since your bun is still young, it’s normal for him to have extra cecotropes because the diet is (necessarily) more rich.

When to transition to the adult diet is a bit dependent on the breed of your bunny. Larger breeds take a longer time to grow to their adult size, so they need to be on young rabbit pellets for longer (at least a year). There is…[Read more]

Are you able to get a second opinion? Is your vet very rabbit experienced?

Some rabbits do need to be on lifelong antibiotics esp for respiratiory infections caused by pasteurella. Some rabbits are prone to chronic pasteurella, the cause for this is believed to have a strong genetic component.

Did you see any improvement while your bun was on Baytril?

I’ve told him I’m past visits that his breathing is labored and he himself had heard the sounds. He said that he would probably resort to antiobiotics if it’s bacterial, so we did that and after the treatmeant he was still vocal. After that, he said that he’s probably just like that and that some rabbits have breathing like that. It kind of felt…[Read more]

Thank you so so much, LBJ and Bam!  I so appreciate your kind words, and I’m sure Teddy does too. ❤

And I can never convey how grateful I am for your many years of wise advice — you are a big reason why Athena and Teddy’s lives were as long and healthy as they were!  I just saved each of my 59 topics to PDF so that I’ll always have a local c…[Read more]

It’s been a true privilege to get to know you here on BB. Binky free, sweet boy ❤

Yes, exactly.  I’m guessing that when a pending reply shows up on the admin side, they appear to us users as “This post is awaiting moderation.”  But my partner never gets to even that point.  It just says, “There has been a critical error on this website.”

I just Googled and apparently there’s a tutorial here?  http://www.wpbeginner [dot] com…[Read more]

Some progress… she grooms him now and he grooms her. They tolerated each other until bedtime. Shared a litter no issues, ate next to each other and had some water. Then he tried to mount her again when the lights went out and the chasing started up. Had to separate them as he was getting too aggressive. Try removing the fence between them in the m…[Read more]
