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]

Lemski started the topic What else can I do in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 1 month ago
Let me start off by saying I know all buns have unique personalities and I respect that. I have a bonded pair I myself bonded last fall. I had the female first for several months. I sat with her, hand fed, and played with daily. She never came around to me. Always flicking her feet at me when she hopped away and wouldn’t let me pet her. We de…[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]

Bam replied to the topic Soft cecotropes in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 1 month ago
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]

I imagine most regular air purifiers are safe to use. I don’t know about the ionic kind. We had one many years ago and it produced ozone. It actually gave me a headache. I think we sold it at a garage sale. LOL

Most hay companies store the hay for an adequate amount of time before shipping it out to sell. You should ask the company what their practices are if that information is not given on their website.
If you look at the updated at the top (added April 2, 2021), there is a group currently working on getting an American-made vaccine.

LBJ10 replied to the topic Unknown bunny breed in the forum THE LOUNGE 5 years, 1 month ago
The “ideal” fur for a Netherland dwarf is a rollback coat. Length can vary somewhat (short to medium). However, this is just for showing purposes. As mentioned earlier, Nethie fur can vary a lot. Some are smoother, some are rougher. This doesn’t mean he isn’t a mix of some sort. It just means that fur type doesn’t really mean much when it comes to…[Read more]

two and half weeks in (seems much longer) And they move around together (well Milo follows louie) sleep sometimes together and I think there is grooming but I am not watching them all the time now so it is probably when they are on their own.
They now sleep unsupervised and I leave them for times during the day. They are supervised during early…[Read more] -

Hi this gives me such anxiety and I hate that we can’t get the vaccine for our buns if there haven’t been active cases in your state.
I live in NYC but am originally from CT. I remember a few years ago there was an outbreak at a vets office in nyc but for some reason this doesn’t count towards an active case in the state. Does anyone know why?…[Read more]

Thank you! This is very helpful. They are both molting right now. There seems to be less scratching so far today so I’ll just keep an eye on her.

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Itchy ears in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 1 month ago
I would not recommend cleaning her ears, as (like with human ears) you could potentially damage the internal structures by trying. If it visually looks clear and absent of gunky, gross stuff, it may just be a strand of fur or something your rabbit is trying to sort out (especially if she is molting right now).
I would give it a few days and if…[Read more]

Charlotte started the topic Tips for smelly buns! in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 1 month ago
Although my buns are generally very clean and I change the litter tray regularly, at times (especially in hot weather) the hay and litter box can leave an odour.
I know that air fresheners generally contain harmful chemicals that aren’t safe to use around bunnies. I have in the past made natural air fresheners using essential oils. Does anyone…[Read more]
