Hi,

I know I said I would update on bonding but just coming on again to say thanks again as things continue to go well 🎉

Phil is well settled into the pen. Occasional bar rattling but nothing major.

I let her out this evening for the first time since early Sunday afternoon (it’s Tuesday evening here) for 15/20 minutes and blocked off the couch…[Read more]

Yeah I understand that with the dental problems but she would be showing some signs. She eats on both signs easily and so playful

I have moved this topic to a different forum section where it is more applicable!

Your rabbit is very cute! From this photo, I actually don’t see anything unusual with the eye. What sort of things are you observing? Can you describe it and is it different than what you see in the other eye?

We spent 4 full days together over the last week and now that I’m back at work I don’t have as much time for full day dates and I’m trying to figure out what to do now. She got him good a few times and when she gets close he just jumps straight up. When she’s relaxing he’ll go put his nose by hers and if she’s sleepy she’ll ignore him, but her…[Read more]

In this context, dental problems would actually be beneath the gum, so you wouldn’t be able to see it. What can happen is the root of the tooth (the part inside the gum) starts growing further into the gum, and due to the proximity of the mouth to eyes, the root of a tooth can actually start growing towards the backside of the eyeball, irritating…[Read more]

But her teeth look great and she’s happy. Her eye def is not red I think that’s from the flash. What should I be looking for?

Unfortunately the movie file is just black for me.

There is a condition called “splay leg”. This website gives some directions on making a brace that could potentially help, if this is the case: http://www.bio.miami.edu/hare/splayleg.html

Here is some pictures of rabbits with splay leg and an overview of the…[Read more]

It does align well with normal puberty, where a rabbit’s hormones that drive territorial and mating instincts start becoming active! It may be frustrating, but it is a natural process all rabbits go through, and the fluctuation of litter habits is common. Following a spay, it’ll be easier to reinstate those litter habits. Until then, you may need…[Read more]

The timing with her age makes me think it is more likely to be puberty, unfortunately!

That sounds like a good setup. They will likely be a bit crazy at first. You can try hanging some towels or blankets between them to block their view of each other at first as well.

On the first pic its red,on the other it’s fine.

For a simple eye infection you can use fucidine (fucithalmic) eye drops. In some areas they are other,in other places they are prescription only.

If the tearduct is blocked, it might need flushing by a vet, if you have tried the lukewarm chamomile teabag-compress several times and it hasnt…[Read more]

I am thinking I will have to divide the pen they usually live in into two.  They get the entire 10×12 breakfast nook to themselves.  The whole thing is surrounded by those square wire racks you can assemble into cube shelves.  I may be able to make a double divider out of more of those so that there is a gap between them and let the boys live on…[Read more]

They are known to mate through fences, so make sure you separate them with double barriers and a few inches in-between.

im getting kind of worried. it still hasnt stopped leaking.  Shes totally normal though.  Little white stuff here and there but not every day.  Like super little.  Like a pin head needle.  I dont know if I need to take her to the doctor yet since it hasnt been even a week but I dont know if shes in pain or not.

Considering the poopy butt and ear/eye issues, teeth would be my first guess too. I would start there before exploring other possibilities.
