Since we are on a deep-dive discussion into rabbit nutrition, I thought I would share this talk by a professor of nutritional sciences from the HRS conference a few years ago:

It’s pretty long, but she goes over the vitamins and minerals that are important in rabbit diets,…[Read more]

I think it’s important to look at both the percentages AND the ingredient list. Without looking at percentages, you don’t know anything about the proportions of the various ingredients.

Every bunny has a slightly different gut biome, so finding one that your bunny does well on can take some time if you have a particularly sensitive bunny. Some…[Read more]

Yes, there are no set dates. They can molt at any time. Some molt continously.

Ol’Roy dog food looks ok percentage wise, but one look at the ingredients (and the awful poops) will tell you there is no real, useable food in there.

So, just saying that quality ingredients, less fillers, is far more important…[Read more]

I’m so glad you found her! I couldn’t make out what kind of animal she was and I felt embarrassed to ask 🤣

Ahhh, what ever squirrel is common in Idaho.

Seen mom a few times.  Put a squirrel block in a hay net so I could kinda get it up the tree.

Today I put out some water and put up an x pen around it so my dogs would stay out.  And, in case she is out in the yard and needs to get into the tree in a hurry, a board bungeed to the pen leading right u…[Read more]

Looks like a fox squirrel. So cute!
