Yes! They are being efficient! I know the feeling though, I’m always happy so see them gulping a bunch of water after grooming/ eating a bunch of their fur 🙂

No not too many. She has few of them in the evening.
Thank you, you calmed me down a lot. I was worried I do something bad.
At what month should I change the junior pellets for normal ones?

If it’s just the occasional softer poop I wouldn’t worry too much, as long as her hay consumption is good. It’s likely because of the higher protein content of her pellets, plus young bunnies are still developing their gut flora. If she starts having lots of soft ones then it would be good to talk to a vet about it.

She has a meadow hay and junior pellets with higher protein and fiber.
Should I change it up with something else? I wanted to try the Timothy hay because she is picky with the meadow. She picks up mostly the green grass ones.

What kind of hay is she eating? Grass hay (timothy, orchard, etc.), or alfalfa?

Two of my buns will stand by their water bowl while grooming. They’ll take a drink, groom, take a drink, groom, and so on. I’m like… dang that’s smart! Way to prevent blockages y’all, keep up the good work! 👏🏻

DanaNM replied to the topic Lethargic bunny in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 7 months ago
It sounds like he could be in some sort of pain. It could be gas, but since it’s been a few days I would prob take him to the vet. Is he showing any selectivity with what he’s eating?
Can you take his temp? Do his ears feel cold or warm? Cool is OK, but if they are cold it could mean his temp is low. You can also do a rough check to see if he’s…[Read more]

Ah thank you!
<p style=”padding-left: 40px;”>Well now I have a problem with her poop because in the evening she kind of have some squishy ones. It’s not the cecotropes. They are more like two squished together. There aren’t too many of them but still I don’t know what to do because she doesn’t eat anything only hay and pellets.</p> -

Ya then they are most likely very healthy. During them being three months though I would definitely introduce veggies.

but the last few days he’s become lethargic and not showing much interest in his toys or running around. He is still eating and going to the toilet but doesn’t want to com…[Read more]

Bam replied to the topic Ear Mites…..😟 in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 7 months ago
It’s difficult to say for how long he will keep scratching. What drops were you given? How do his ears look now? You should see quite a bit of improvement by now.
Ear mites typically cause scabs and sores, and they need time to heal even though the mites themselves die. There’s also the possibility that bacteria or yeasts starts to grow where the…[Read more]

Hi everyone,
Almost 2 weeks ago, the vets confirmed that Sid (my mini lop) had ear mites :(( they gave us spot on treatment that we must put on him once every 2 weeks for 6 weeks. It’s been almost 2 weeks since we have put on his first treatment. Today I’ve noticed he’s been scratching his ears more than yesterday! He is still a happy and energ…[Read more]
