Thank you so much for the reply! I’m actually not sure. They try and rip the plastic between them to get to each other, but one day Chicory made it to the other side and promptly try to tear Sage to shreds. It’s a little weird because usually they lay next to each other through the plastic or sniff noses through the cracks between panels.

Yes that is a possibility, he didn’t say he just said he thinks it’s worms. Also that’s great to hear that it is most likely not mega colon.  And no he did not do a fecal float, if she is showing no signs of improvement it will probably be a good idea to bring him a fecal sample, and yes that is good to know, as soon as she stops eating or seems…[Read more]

Thank you for suggesting that link, it really helped a lot, it could be bacterial enteritis. Also I am not sure what her diet was like before I got her.  So it could be possible I changed her diet too drastic and it is affecting her.  She is eating unlimited hay which I change her litter box every morning and put fresh hay in, and I usually give h…[Read more]

but somth else that i notice was his bottom smells so bad even i cleaned the open spot on 2 sides of his genital area but the smell looks like to be from his poop is that a bad sign :(?

thank you for your guidance about the uraine at first the other parts just get soaked and the white milky part remains and it gets soaked after couple minutes or more and about vets we dont have vets specially for rabbits here but i will try to look for a good vet and try to find another type of hay thats good for him. THX

I remember your girls!

As a starting point, I would recommend reading through this info: https://binkybunny.com/infocategory/bonding/

It should give you a good starting point, and then you can post any more detail questions you have about the process. 🙂

In terms of bonding space, it’s best to use an area that is 100% neutral, so an area that…[Read more]

Did the vet think perhaps it was coccidea (a parasite)? This parasite is a different med than panacur, but causes intestinal irritation and diarrhea, and can be very dangerous in rabbits. Megacolon usually doesn’t show up until a bun is a few years old, and is quite rare.

Did your vet do a fecal float? If your vet isn’t very rabbit savvy I would…[Read more]

I’m sure everything will go fine! Rabbits usually take their pain meds willingly because the medicine is sweet. 🙂

And being prepared with syringes and recovery food (along with her pain meds) is the best thing you can do. Sometimes they just need to be syringe fed once or twice to help them start feeling better. Kinda like when a friend brings…[Read more]

Junior rabbit pellets can have a lot more calcium in them because of the alfalfa (pellets are often the main source of calcium in a bun’s diet).

Kale, parsley, basil, and broccoli are high in calcium, so you could swap them out for a lower calcium veg (romaine, endive/chicory, or bok choy), or at least be sure they are in a rotation and not…[Read more]

Regarding pictures: If you upload the pics to the gallery in your profile, you can paste or link to those pics in your forum post.

Cecal dysbiosis is a lot more common than megapolis and a lot less serious. Mucus can mean the intestinal wall is irritated, or that there’s an overgrowth of the wrong gut bacteria. It’s often highly treatable with…[Read more]

he driinks a LOT these days

There are other grass hays that rabbits can eat, if you can’t find timothy. Horse hay is good for rabbits unless there’s a lot of alfalfa in it. Fresh grass that’s pesticide-free can be an alternative to hay.

It’s very important that your bun drinks a good amount of water.

suddenly i dont think there would be other hays available i will try to search all of the stores and see if any farms around have timothy . thx

Unfortunately, I can’t give a definitive answer because it’s not something I’ve gone through with a rabbit. I understand that you may not have a rabbit-experienced vet accessible to you, so hopefully more experienced members can provide more direct suggestions in that case.

If your rabbit is eating a lot of alfalfa hay and junior pellets and…[Read more]

Hey thx for your reply and is it bladder sludge then 🙁
yeah he has access to water bowl all time and because its hot here i even drop a ice cube inside his water every time i change it  and about the hay idk really because in here (Iran) they just throw everything in and they dont care for types but as i know its alfalfa hay  and there arent a l…[Read more]

I don’t have experience with bladder sludge, but I do believe this is inline with bladder sludge– that is a A LOT of excess calcium secretion.

I am curious about the diet, mainly the amount and type of hay your rabbit get. I think adjustments to reduce calcium intake and increase hay and water intake are important at this point. That may also…[Read more]
