Oh no, Wally. Is he still sick? I have zero knowledge about any probiotics in general, so I can’t really help… (I can relate to the cecal dysbiosis stress, though) but I’m sending comforting and positive vibes for you and Wally ♥

I’m happy for you that marathoning is going well!

Honestly there is no harm in giving them more time in neutral, in my opinion. I feel like if you are still questioning things, then give it a bit more time just to be on the safe side. I feel like when they are ready you will know! I usually wait till I feel like “OK, they seem bonded!” and then…[Read more]

Yeah I’ve always just swapped rabbits. 🙂

This all sounds very good to me!  I know with Cooper and Bonnie, Bonnie still gets out of Coop’s way when he’s running around being crazy. But then they snuggle together certain times of day, and just recently (after several months) I suddenly saw a lot more grooming. So the fact that they seem like buddies now is awesome 🙂

And you’re very welcome!

Hmmm, some buns do seem a bit antisocial, and others can take a really long time to open up. Can you describe their housing set up and their daily routine in a bit more detail?  How do you deal with cleaning their area? How often do you handle them? Some buns can be very particular about their housing and will be annoyed if anyone messes with…[Read more]

If there is a rescue in your area they may have a good source (and may also sell hay themselves, many rescues do).

I’m going to try and get her checked out for reproductive cancer, and an infection if possible. I don’t have critical care right now, but I did order some syringe-fed recovery food and her pellets are on their way. The only brand they had available was Science Selective, and there was Small Pet Select on eBay, so I’ll try and order that when I run…[Read more]

A normal amount of pellets for an adult bun between 2 and 4 pounds is 2 table spoons (1/8 cup). This is for conpressed pellets (like Oxbow essentials). If you use extruded pellets you should give 4 table spoons/days, because extruded pellets (cuniconplete, science selective etc) weigh about half of what compressed pellets weigh.

Greens and herbs…[Read more]

I gave her like 12 grams of pellets today and she ate them all!

I also gave her parsley, lettuce and dill. Which she didn’t eat all but most of it.

I still gave her critical care tho.

Do you know how much pellets and greens should I give to her? If she should weight around 1800 grams?

For a month? That’s really long time 🥺 I have to teach my…[Read more]

I have more questions in case anyone has answers! I just saw a totally liquid cecotrope. He went over and licked it off the floor a while later. He has had a few days of benebac as well as a few days of the Oxbow digestive treats. His pellets are Timothy hay only and he gets some greens twice a day, usually romaine and some other kind of green. I…[Read more]

You can of course serve her pellets, and see if she eats them. The best thing is to measure them up so you lnow how much (if anything) she has eaten of them.

You can try a teaspoon of rolled oats and see if she eats that – oats are easy on the tummy and often very popular with rabbits.

Herbs and leafy greens are good- serve them a little bit at…[Read more]

Yes I’m still giving her meds. Doctor said I can give them to bunny for two weeks long.

Do you have please any advice what can I feed her now? Or how often/much should I give her pellets? I’m very confused about the pellet thing or how much greens I can give her per day.

I’m really worried now about feeding her as I don’t want the same thing…[Read more]

It’s great that she’s eating something on her own! Pellets are often the last thing a poorly bun goes back to. Fiber is the most important part pf the diet right now, since she gets the protein she needs from the Critical Care.

Are you giving her any meds at home?

She eats now a little hay, and I offered her some greens so she ate them. Not all at once but gradually through day.

She is not touching pellets at all tho! They were her favorite.

It is really exhausting now for me already to always try and catch her and syringe feed her. Next week I’m going away and only my mum stays at home. I hope she will…[Read more]
