I’m not sure I’m following but Dana if moving good luck! I just did a few months ago and it was not a good experience. :0  If going to Norway are you bringing rabbits in the airplane?   Also very cool to have 2 pairs and maybe try a quad, I’d like to hear about that.  I may get a third, but I want to find out if I’ll be working from home past COV…[Read more]

I cant quite picture the head movement. He could perhaps still feel some discomfort from the ear mites?

An ear infection could be a possibility. I mean  rabbits can get them as you know, and shaking the head and scratching the ears (or one ear, more commonly) could be symptoms. Dental problems seem less likely due to his young age.

Did he seem…[Read more]

Update: Throughout the day (within 8 hours ?) he threw his head back whilst eating 3 times – once when eating green leaves and twice whilst eating hay- but then started eating normally again. Now I’m wondering whether he has a minor problem with molar Spurs, since he is still eating everything… either that or he has an inner ear infection (he i…[Read more]

As Hazel says, look over her diet first of all, just to rule out any type of deficiency. A bun should have hay available 24/7, about 2 tablespoons of good quality pellets and some leafy greens. Hay should be at least 80% of the diet.

My first thought would be a dental problem. The licking could be an effort to relieve pain in the mouth. Dental…[Read more]

That’s my sense too… I will be very surprised if they still allow me to come in an reasonable time frame (I can’t say I blame them)! They said the initial closure was for 2 weeks, but of course they can extend it, and who knows what that will mean for my pending residency permit.

The temps here in S CA have been all over the map. One week it’s…[Read more]

This was so very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to help me!

Baby-young rabbits will get along with any other rabbit since hormones are not actively coursing through them, so in terms of letting them become “friends” prior to spay/neutering, I would not try that, due to what has occurred and also that young rabbit relationships tend to evolve naturally once hormones are in, and this can sometimes be a…[Read more]

I was wondering about that Dana. My guess is a lot of countries aren’t going to be letting people in for a long time.

Ugh… it was above average for most of December and January. I was getting used to going for walks around the neighborhood. Then it snowed. A lot. And now it’s going to be COLD. Really COLD. Single digit highs, below zero lows.…[Read more]

Hmm… has anything changed within his environment? New people, pets, sounds, etc? Perhaps he feels he needs to defend his area.

Or, could this be a pain response? Teeth? Joints? Has he been behaving normally otherwise? Does he still eat everything he used to or use the litter box like he used to?

Ya it’s sorta amazing, before I really began my rabbit care journey I didn’t know much but I knew to not give them a wire bottom cage. I was looking for a cage for the summer and couldn’t find a single cage so I put wood over the wire bottom. But anyways let’s hope that Montana and everywhere start to gain appreciation for rabbit care.

My four are doing well, still living as 2 pairs. Other than still dealing with some marking from the boys it’s going fine! Thankfully they mostly seem to pee on the vinyl, so clean up isn’t too exhausting. Everyone is molting up a storm right now, BJ looks like he got attacked by a weed whacker! I just swapped who was out at what time, and I t…[Read more]
