That’s sounds like a great set-up. 🙂 You don’t necessarily need to do side swaps till after they are spayed (since their smells will change), but it won’t hurt anything.

Thanks for all the replies! Now that I think of it, it is about the right time. They’re also shedding a lot, which I assume is the real coat coming in? There seems to be so much fur lately that I might’ve mistaken having a third rabbit made entirely of it. I have them separated in identical areas right now. They can see and smell each other…[Read more]

I agree with what Dana has mentioned, exactly. This is a common, natural progression for young rabbits, whether they are siblings or not. Prior to puberty, it can be easier for them to get along, but as hormones emerge and express themselves, this may cause dangerous fights and strains on a previously OK relationship. It is not a permanent change,…[Read more]

Thank you so much for the response! He does have a bit too much are to roam. We have tried limiting him, but he picks up right where he left off when we try to reintroduce him to more space. The pet enzyme cleaner is a great call! Also we gave him a second litter box and it has reduced some of the carpet spots.

Thank you DanaNM! I was hoping I wasn’t scaring him lol. He looks very relaxed while doing it. 💜 Glad he’s happy!

Bam it’s the little squeaks, need the volume up a lot!

It’s because they’ve reached puberty. Unfortunately you’ll need to separate them till after they are spayed and their hormones settled down, then you can work on re-bonding them. Sometimes buns can stay together if they get spayed/neutered before the hormones kick in, but it’s very common for this to happen.

YAYAYAYAYAY!! 😀 I’m so happy that things are working out with your group!! Copper reminds me so much of Smokey!! 😉

Wishing you a quad soon!!

And of course I know ya’ll are going to want some pictures, so here ya go:

Well, my hare-brained half-deranged scheming seems to be working!

We scooped up all four buns (Copper AKA Dale Cooper, Bun Jovi, Myra, Bonnie) into a big carrier and drove from Santa Barbara to Escondido. It was about 3 hours and they were great in the carrier, mostly all snuggled up together with Coop in the center.

Currently have them in a…[Read more]

Orange-reddish pee is most often due to plant pigments in the diet. It is harmless and not a sign of illness or poor kidney function. Many green plants have a good amount of carotenoids in them, for example dandelion greens.

Rabbits can also produce reddish pee spontaneously, but its still not a sign of a problem.

Calcium in the pee shows up as…[Read more]

Yoghurt drops are not good, but a small amount for an otherwise healthy bun won’t cause significant damage. Dairy is not recommended for buns that have been weaned, and the drops contain sugar. Of course if a bun is feed yoghurt drops often, it can be a health hazard, especially if the bun gets to fill up on treats so it doesn’t eat enough hay.
