He looks very much like a Netherland Dwarf. That may end up being him at his biggest size (~2.2lb), though I’d wait until he was 1yo to be certain. The snout face and ear size are very characteristic of nethies (I have one!).

This is Ollie he is 7 months and 2.2 pounds. I adopted him about 2 weeks ago and wondering what breeds he might be. The shelter said American but those are big. Is there such thing as a dwarf American rabbit?

Watched a video about making your own CC. Guy just pulverized his Guinea Pigs regular food. He’d also add a bit of mashed banana at tip of syringe for extra flavor. Piggy loved it!
Since CC and Sherwood’s Recovery food is impossible to get right now, I’m giving it a try. Still trying to get a little weight on Walter, I mix this with org…[Read more]

Hi.
we are on day 5. 3 overnights done. 😌
The bunnies seem happy together, they sit in the litter box together and I don’t worry about them like I used to! They keep me up at night with binkies and taking it in turns to bite the pen and banging and trying to move it.
They do not cuddle and not much grooming -Louie tries. Milo moves away after l…[Read more]

Thank you so much for your quick responses! I am a very long winded post writer so it means a lot you’d take the time.
On hay to other foods ratio: she’s been a wonderful hay eater, I’d definitely say around 80%ish of her diet is hay?
As for transitioning diet: we went extremely slow transitioning to pellets. Not so much with greens, though. The…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Bunny wont leave his cage.. in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 1 month ago
I do think the flooring is a big factor. Rabbits do not have pads on their feet like dogs and cats do– they essentially are wearing furry socks all the time! That means any slippery flooring is going to be a bit hard to go on willingly, and also health-wise, it is hard to get adequate exercise when you’re slipping around too. I would definitely…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Nipping in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 1 month ago
I would definitely not reinforce it by giving her pellets when she does it. Pellet time is often a very energetic time for rabbits, and that excitement can lead to nipping. You can try changing when pellet time is so that behavior doesn’t get reinforced due to anticipatory energy motivating the behavior to come up. You can also change how you feed…[Read more]

@bam I was wondering do you know how to get bad tough stains off a rabbit ? I tried the dried shampoo but it won’t work for my rabbit do you know how I can get the stains off ?

I’m sorry you have had to go through this.
Most rabbits do forgive their owners once they recover, but it is very stressful both for you and your bun while it’s going on. You have to give meds, and a cone is often of need after surgery. It’s not nice for a bun to wear a cone, but it’s a lot worse for the bun to hurt himself.
A male bun typically…[Read more]

My bun Blossom has taken up nipping every few days when it comes to pellets. Now it hasn’t been hard and I do not give her pellets right away when she nips, I say “no biting”/”no nipping” and wait a few seconds. Well today she nipped a little to hard…[Read more]

It can take more than one week, just like swelling and brusing can in a human – but you should see it getting better continously.
It’s great that he has a good appetite! If you could get us a picture of the area, it would be helpful. It would probably require that someone else takes the picture while you sit and hold him against your body. (It’s…[Read more]
