Yes, it is possible to develop new allergies. This is especially true if you are exposed to the allergen more. I developed a rabbit allergy. And no, I’m not allergic to grasses at all. As Bam suggested though, it doesn’t hurt to try switching up hays to see if that helps. When someone is allergic to hay, Timothy seems to be a common culprit.

It was cemented for about 19 hours. I don’t want to take them on a car ride because I don’t want to do stress bonding, and Ollie is terrified of car rides.( he shakes, won’t eat or drink, just isn’t himself)

Allergies can develop at any time in a person’s life. It’s not possible to say if your dad reacts to the rabbit or the hay, but you could try switching type of hay. Many people (including myself) are sensitive to timothy hay.

I use a mix of wood stove pellets and paper pellets in my bun’s litterbox. I  find wood stove pellets to be better at…[Read more]

@Hazel: I wasn’t sure I was emotionally ready for another bun yet. There are diy vids online on how to sew a pillow like that, but you can make a similar thing of an old sweater 😃

@BZOO: Her name is Snoa 🥰

@LBJ10: Pigeon 🤣🤣 🤣

Scattered white fur is not uncommon, especially in rabbits with white fur. To my knowledge, it is not linked to any concerning medical conditions, aside from simple fur genetics.

Pigeon? I think her name is Pigeon…  Yep, that’s it.

😆 😆 😆

Yeah… it takes some bunnies awhile to realize veggies are edible. LOL  I agree with simply continuing to present them to see if she will eventually decide to try a little. However, it isn’t absolutely critical for her to eat them on a regular basis, so don’t stress too much over it.

What’s her name?  Beautiful coloring she’s got.

Thank you!

This is the way I’ve done it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_x9dbSUdomg&ab_channel=Howcast

But I’ve only had to do it a handful of times with my buns, they’ve usually done a pretty good job keeping them clean themselves.

I agree that they aren’t necessary (especially fruits, which I rarely feed mine). BUT, if you’d like to encourage some veggie eating, it is best to just keep offering them. If she sees the other bun eating them that might also convince her to take a nibble.

Really fragrant herbs like cilantro and parsley tend to be good for enticing a bun to try them too.

How do you suggest cleaning my bun’s anal glands with minimal stress and grudges? 🙁

Fruits aren’t important, they’re actually treats and  they’re unnecessary if you’re bun dislikes them. I suggest cutting back to less than a fourth a cup or possibly an eighth of a cup of pellets so she’ll be more hungry for her pellets and veggies. But as long as she’s not gorging on pellets, is eating lots of hay, and her weight is staying…[Read more]

So actually, if you have good-quality complete pellets (see here: http://www.therabbithouse.com/diet/rabbit-food-comparison.asp), then your rabbit is getting everything she needs from hay and pellets. Veggies are a nice addition for stimulation and just another source of those other vitamins and minerals, but pellets actually cover those…[Read more]
