No, the picture makes them look redder than they actually are, they are more of a pale pinkish color.

What they are eating could be causing gas, particularly the carrots.  So if you can avoid it it would help. But its important to get them to eat so their stomach doesnt shut down so I understand the need to get anything down them if they are being fussy.

My rabbit has been in and out of stasis lately  it was originally due to her teeth and she n…[Read more]

Okay,

I have been giving the Simethicone to him and instead of mixing regular water in with his CC I tried the hay tea- he loved it! This whole time I’ve had to really push the syringes into his mouth to eat but this time, although a bit slower, I could push a dot up and he licks it off happily.

I’ve been seeing a noticable difference with the…[Read more]

Sorry to hear about their dysbiosis. Benebac powder is pretty good and a broad probiotic compared to most others I’ve seen.  In humans prebiotics are a great way to feed more beneficial bacteria. Many probiotics dont survive the highly acid environment of the stomach so feeding the small amount of good bacteria really helps them grow. Chicory…[Read more]

It may be the coloring of the photo, but those do look on the redder side to me. Is that the color seen across all of them, or just a few?

My rabbit is a fussy eater and had gut issues whenever eating veggies. Pellets were causing her dental issues and my rabbit specialist vet advised me years ago to take her off the pellets to improve her dental health. As he does to all rabbit owners.  She just eats hay now with dried weeds like dandelion and plantain just to make it more…[Read more]

The nice thing about sitting on them is that they can’t really kick out and hurt themselves that way. You also aren’t firmly holding them with your hands so you don’t have to worry about squeezing them too hard. They are simply trapped between your legs. Just make sure to tuck your feet in so they can’t back up! From my experience, if you let them…[Read more]

The “pads” of the toes can be visible. This is fine. However, if you see redness or signs of inflammation, then that will warrant a vet visit. Although less common than sore hocks, they can get “sore toes”.

Hey guys, we tried the c grip method but yeah he’s still super squirmy gonna try to keep him in between our legs next! For that method when do you guys release your  bunnies?? He struggles so much I’m not sure if I’m hurting him

Yes, his coloring looks like a Charlie to me as well. This means he has two copies of the En (broken) gene. The broken gene has been introduced into a ton of breeds, including Nethies.

I’d definitely recommend bamboo sticks! My rabbit goes wild on them and chews through a pack in a month or so.

Awe the house is so cute, where’d you get it?

I don’t think he has the Hotot in him, I feel like he may be just a Netherland with charlie coloration (a charlie being a broken rabbit with less then 10% coloration) due to there being coloration on the ears and the eye markings not being “winged” like Hotot’s are.

Theres also a possibility that he may be a Polish too? Might want to look in…

I still can’t see the video. 🙁  From the still shot, I’m not sure what I’m looking at. Are you talking about the part that is protruding? From this picture, it does look like a boy… although it’s a bit blurry. If you can get a clear picture, we can probably help you.

I’m sorry the ER vets weren’t much help, but they gave you pain meds and motility meds, which is the most important! It’s possible he just was going into stasis and there isn’t something else going on. Not sure where you are in the world, but is he molting? Molting and season changes in general seem to cause tummy trouble.

Keep up the supportive…[Read more]

If he is super squirmy, you could “sit” on him. He is on the floor and you just sit on your knees with him in between your legs. Then you can us the C-grip method Wick mentioned if necessary.
