His previous homeowners didnt introduce him to hay which is not entierly their fault, hay is not readily available  in my country. The hay online is as bad as it can be, I too get it imported from a different state. I feed him doob grass.

His poop has been soft and almost liquid since last night. Vet Clinics are closed on a Sunday and we dont…[Read more]

Unfortunately my choice in flooring is limited because she tries to eat most of it. There is low-pile carpet in there now, but she gets exercise time outside of the pen on hardwood floor, so I think that she has been outside of the pen more lately to get some exercise to get her gut moving and the fact that I went too long for the nail trim caused…[Read more]

Thank you again, Wick. That does make a lot of sense. Sometimes they make me jump too! What did you do when one bunny got wound up? Did you just keep exposing them and breaking up any scuffles caused by it?

14 days is typically the minimum for an antibiotic course, with many vets going longer in fear of stopping too soon. I think it’s definitely possible that Baytril was stopped prematurely in all cases.

Discuss with your vet (or another rabbit experienced vet, if possible) about trying Baytril again. If it still seems effective, continue it for at…[Read more]

Another 24 hrs in the books! Their relationship seems much stronger and there hasn’t been any chasing from Pixie, which was really our only issue before. They share the space well, respect with the other doesn’t want to groom/be groomed, and seek each other when there’s a scary noise.  Yesterday I moved with them to the kitchen (was feeling trappe…[Read more]

I’m so sorry for your loss. When deaths come suddenly and seemingly out of nowhere, it is likely something that was congenital or underlying that you could not have really known about. She is now binkying free across the rainbow bridge. Please feel free to share fond photos or stories if you’d like on your topic .

The poops on the right side of the first photo don’t actually look that bad. There is definitely more variability in the 2nd photo that is more concerning, but I don’t think it’s an immediate emergency, unless you begin seeing diarrhea.  I am not familiar with what you administered, so I cannot give any guidance on that.

How much hay is she…[Read more]

“She has hay and a wooden toy in there with her, so I don’t think she’s chewing out of boredom…” — I don’t think this is a good conclusion. As human beings, we can be stuck in a room with a bag of chips and a bouncy ball and still get bored, so keep in mind that just having a toy and hay in the area is not adequate engagement for a rab…[Read more]

My interpretation– understanding that we can never know what bunnies truly think and we tend to personify them– is that binkying/zoomies will cause tension when one or both rabbits is still nervous about the other. You see such a flail of motion and you’re nervous, so the thought may be to attack instinctually. I think continued exposure to each…[Read more]

It’s a bit hard to tell from the photo (not your fault really; it’s hard to get a clear picture of these things without seeing it in person!), but it does look like early stage sore hock. Reddening and swelling is the sign of irritation, taking it to the realm of sore hock, as opposed to callous. Notably, rex’s are prone to sore hocks, so I…[Read more]

TWO YEARS?? OMG – @pinkiemarie, that’s absolutely amazing! Soooo adorable and so worth it. Just look at them all hanging out together… *heart eyes* ♥ 

Thanks again, Wick.

Shortly after this another fight broke out, so they’re now back to side by side enclosures. I’m going to give them a day and then start again with the new bonding area in the living room.

It seems the fights always start when one or both of them starts doing binkies and zoomies and kicks/lands on the other one. I don’t know…[Read more]
