Hey GraceandFlopsie!

When you say your bun isn’t eating much hay, is he eating his pellets/veggies?  Assuming he is still eating other stuff, how much pellets/veggies are you giving him?  Sometimes, if you make pellets available all the time or give a high quantity, bunnies will eat less of the hay to make room for the bad stuff 🙂

But in r…[Read more]

When my foster bun had intermittent soft stools (moist poops), I remember reading a lot about it and the suggested treatment (for an adult bun) was to have an only hay-based diet for as long as it takes the poop gets completely better, and then to slowly introduce pellets and then veggies again (and last treats) to balance out their gut. …[Read more]

Maybe!  Although she does seem very energetic in the mornings consistently now; it’s just the evenings she can be almost scarily uninterested/sleepy.  I’m thinking it is probably due to the fact that both of them may not sleep as well in the afternoon (vs. the night) or the fact that she eats more pellets during the day and doesn’t feel as g…[Read more]

Yes I’m going to give it another month or two and then bring Rummy back just to check and talk about the spay/neuter options and when we can do that. Thank you!

Yep, that suggests a female too. I would wait a little longer and then check again to be sure. It becomes more obvious as they get older. Just remember, the absence of testicles doesn’t necessarily mean anything since boys can pull them up into their body. Testicles that are visible though… well, that’s a definitive answer. LOL

Yes, you can do elimination. So if you try the no veggies for awhile and it doesn’t appear to be that, then you can try no pellets for awhile.

Have you tried just cardboard boxes or making things out of cardboard? I’ve seen tutorials online for cardboard balls and cardboard woven mats. That’s stuff that’s pretty much free to make if you have some boxes laying around. If you have the space, you could make cardboard tunnels for the bunny to run through.

I’ve also seen people clip up trea…[Read more]

I was just thinking… What if it’s pellets he’s sensitive to? Would I be able to do the same and not give him any for a day if taking away the veggies doesn’t work?

Thanks LBJ10! I think I’ll give it a try.

It really looks like a female but yes he’s real young so it could be hard to tell. Are you bringing Rummy back to the vet for another check up in another month? Maybe by then it’ll be easier to know? 

Hi @LBJ10! & Happy new year to everyone here at BB!

Things have been pretty quiet around our house, not much has been happening (which has sort of become the usual now of course). I have still been feeding the birds with feeders I have right outside our large picture window, it’s a bit harder to keep them fresh and stocked in the winter (I’m in…[Read more]

Happy New Year to you too! I have been enjoying time off from work and spending more time with my significant other and bunny. 🙂 quite the cute pair they are, I walked the room to find Starlight and the S.O. watching tv together. Starlight seems to really like football. Lol.

Pedialyte is good, hydration is crucial. Has he eaten anything?

Have you seen more poop?

Here is an article on rabbit poop, by Dana Krempels, a highly trusted source:

He seems to be warm enough. Heater is on in their room and he has somewhere to snuggle up in. He also seems more content when he’s wrapped lightly in a towel in my hands while getting rubbed and scratches, he does his little teeth chatter plus he, I guess, decided it was a good time to groom himself and lick the towel that was draped over my hand…[Read more]

A very young bun that presents with all mucus poop is a veterinary emergency. The most important thing is to keep him warm until you get to the vet.

Probiotic drops for babies seem harmless enough, but whether they will do any good is uncertain.

From the side it definitely looks slanted! Not tubular like any of the male photos I’ve seen.
