From my personal experience (via my rabbit Wick) with ringworm, I sort of forgo the environmental contamination thing… my understanding is the fungal spores that can cause ringworm are essentially everywhere and it’d be pretty difficult to identify where it was coming from and get rid of it. If I recall my research correctly, I think I found…[Read more]

Thanks everyone. That article was helpful DanaNM. If I had room to keep separate it would help, but I rent and it’s a bit tight given how much room Dorian thinks he should have as is. The other bun also has to be suited to free roam too which is an added requirement. I think I will just keep an eye on the eligible single ladies at the shelter (&…[Read more]

I definitely wouldn’t want to confine them to a space that small for a long time but it is absolutely the best way to go for this pair. I made them go in the kitchen with me and cook Sunday in a tiny little square of pen and they were perfectly nice the entire time. I also made the living area smaller and I think that’s part of the progress. I…[Read more]

@Wick has experience with ringworm.

And yes, cultures can be unreliable. I would think especially so if you had already been treating the area.

I love the picture! Glad they can at least exist in a bunny pile peacefully 🤣

OMG that picture is hilarious!

I haven’t had great luck with small spaces personally, but I have heard of people basically confining the buns to the litter box only during bonding… I wonder if that might work with your three since the box seems to be a sticking point?

oh! thank you, i’ll look into getting her spayed as soon as i can then

I want to start but saying I’ve never had an animal with ringworm so I have no idea how to ID it or if you’re providing the right treatment. I would definitely suggest seeing another vet along with any documentation including records from the first vet and any pictures you have. My concern is that rabbits can be very sensitive and what is safe for…[Read more]

I’m glad you’ve seen a vet and had her checked out!

It sounds like a good plan to up her daily CC. In order for her to regain interest in eating, she needs to be strong and have energy. Critical Care is, as you know, very good stuff.

It sounds like this is mostly about patience and endurance from your side now. Recovery from stasis can be…[Read more]

Hi, I spontaneously got my first bun, so I also started reading about bonding online and felt like with how social they are, I should get him a friend. I was spending a lot of time with him at first, and I know he was happy. I was more thinking about the future and when I travel, etc, so he does not get lonely. He was about 3 when I tried and I…[Read more]

hi! Thank u for the reply! She went to the vet on Friday and her teeth and ears were fine.  She was well hydrated. And becuz she is eating on her own a bit we decided on only 10-15 ml of CC a few times a day to allow her to want to eat on her own. I just don’t see an increase in her appetite. And she is a very normally “hidey” rabbit. She usually…[Read more]
