I will look at the list now, thanks. I see it on the internet, people give rabbits a plateful of greenery. I give very little. How many vegetables should you eat daily at 7 months of age?

What?! I’m a good bunny mom! I cord protected everything beforehand 😙 today on the pet bed i found a bunch of fur on it, she probably jumped up there to explore last night? I put some apples there to encourage her just now, hopefully she will be interested.

That’s good that they won’t be depressed alone at least. I’ve given each of them a stuffed animal to keep them company somewhat and letting them chill out by themselves for a few days before I attempt another rebonding. If that rebonding fails than I will go for a longer separation and total restart on bonding.

Is it possible for them to never…[Read more]

FOS themselves aren’t the problem, they are a natural part of digestion because they’re the first step in metabolisng food. They act as food for the other bacteria down the line. It becomes a problem when such a large amount of FOS is released that it can’t be metabolised quickly enough by the other bacteria. It’s why we’re not supposed to feed…[Read more]

I had this problem once. It turned out it was her teeth in the end. She ended up very poorly before they finally put her under anesthetic to check for spurs. If you can get a few different hays 3rd cut Timothy hay or dried grass like readigrass and they still wont eat it I would inform your vet they still wont eat hay. Im sure they will do a more…[Read more]

Glad to hear you rabbit is eating. That’s the best thing for stasis. You can give more simethicone if necessary. You cant really overdose as it doesnt leave the stomach or go into the bloodstream. We gave our rabbit 1ml every few hours when she was very bad until the gas decreased and then 1ml every 8-12 as maintenance for a few days to be on the…[Read more]

Sometimes stuff gets mixed in there, even with “pure bred” bunnies. I agree that it looks like some lop is in there. Bunnies with a little bit of lop can usually control their ears, but may allow one or both to lop when they don’t feel like holding them up.

If the jewels are there, you’re good to go!

So true Dana. Bunnies and desks are usually a bad combination. LOL

Perhaps some pet stairs? Honestly though, if your bunny doesn’t want to go up there, you can’t really make them.

I didn’t know FOS can cause digestive upsets. As I was using bebebac which contains FOS to feed her healthy bacteria? I may reduce the dosage and see it that helps maybe? What do you think?

I was also going to feed her small amount of the hay, that she cant digest, each day and increase it after each week.  In the hope that her bacteria and…[Read more]

It is amazing isnt it! Lots of foods and probiotics marketed for horses are the same as the rabbit versions but much better value. Herbs, hay and probiotics and even metacam!

Unless he’s a super tiny bun like a Netherland Dwarf that could benefit from the extra growth weight for surgery, I’d be getting him done now, 5 months is safe.  Better to avoid those behaviours.

The snuggle safe was a hit, I found Luna curled around it this morning. Very pleased that it works as long as it states. I heated it up at 8pm, it says it stays warm for 10 hours, I checked it at 6:15pm and could still feel some heat from it. Amazing product.

Here’s a full list with high oxalate veggies (group I) for future reference: https://binkybunny.com/bunnyinfo/veggie-list/

In general, a high oxalate veg shouldn’t be more than 30% of the daily veg, and rotate the one you feed each week.

The commonly fed veggies that are high oxalate are parsley, chard, beet greens, spinach.

Nope, that 5 days won’t make a difference. If he’s acting super hormonal and he’s “dropped” then I think he’s definitely ready for the snip!

I don’t think it’s possible to make a bunny sleep where they don’t want to.  They are very opinionated LOL

In my experience, putting a bunny somewhere usually doesn’t make them feel safe in that area, and each bun has preferences on where they like to sleep. Most bunnies like to sleep in hides or other sheltered places, but some do like to climb…[Read more]
