Activity

Unfortunently no. Smores(quarantined) is currently indoors and in a small hutch. Biscuit is outdoors and we are trying to figure out a situation to move them both indoors but as of now no avail. I did put a towel in Biscuit’s cage and plan on bringing smores outside for a bit in a mesh carrier to see if it helps. I’ve been monitoring both. Smores…[Read more]

The grass seems logical since that is what they were likely already eating. Alfalfa hay and pellets are good for young bunnies, so it’s OK if they are eating those too. I agree that you shouldn’t worry too much about reduced activity at night. Perhaps he/she just feels more comfortable during the day when there is movement around the house.

Thanks! I will check it out!

I forgot to mention that they are neutered, hopefully it will work out 🙂

Hey

I also agree with DanaNM. From my experience this behaviour all sounds pretty normal bonding behaviour and the timeline doesn’t seem too bad either, I’ve done two bonds that took 3 ish months and one that took 2 weeks with pretty much daily sessions and they all bonded successfully (snuggled lots and lived harmoniously post bond) despite lots…[Read more]

Thank you for the response! I thought the same about the fresh grass but I contacted both exotic vets in town and one is a rabbit expert and they both suggested the same thing and said it’s because they were feral and that’s most likely what they would have been munching when not drinking mom’s milk. I slowly introduced pellets and now they love…[Read more]

I am weary of a vet who recommended very young (4-6 week old) rabbits to have raw grass clippings– it is not recommended for rabbits under 6mo. The gut biome is very sensitive and introducing fresh food like that (which is the same category as veggies) is dangerous as the gut biome is not mature enough to break down that material effectively. It…[Read more]

I can’t find a specific topic by the user unfortunate (@Q8bunny), but you can find some responses by the user if you search the following on google:  “site: binkybunny.com q8bunny kuwait”. That will search our website for things including the user and the word Kuwait, and that should hopefully glean some information?

I think it’s really up to you. They haven’t been fully bonded yet based on what you described. Doing just several sessions in a neutral space isn’t really enough, you want to see them acting fully bonded in the neutral territory before moving to a less neutral space. This means starting with daily shorter sessions and working up to them spending…[Read more]

Are you able to keep them within sight of each other? That would help a lot.

Do you remember the title of her forum or her user? it would be of great help <3

Hi there,

I think it’s great you are working to bring them inside. A great starting point is to check out the sections here: https://binkybunny.com/house-rabbit-information/

There is a section on litter training, habitats, bunny proofing, etc.

For litter training, it will be important to get them neutered. Once neutered, most rabbits are pretty…[Read more]

Also note: I know that rabbits shouldn’t necessarily be outdoor pets but my folks are very hard to convince on the subject. They are the type to see an issue with them and go “They’ll get better on their own”. They were semi-convinced because of the recent issue.
