Well, it’s been a very eventful day. Around mid afternoon Bun Jovi seemed a bit uncomfortable and had some weird shaped poops. Gave him some greens and water and then he snapped out of it, but then started trying to mount OBSESSIVELY for hours. Like, really extreme, and constantly chasing poor Myra, which was then stirring up everyone else. To the…[Read more]

I agree with Bam. I’m sure they haven’t done irreversible harm. Try some healthier treats and see what happens. I know Oxbow banana treats are quite popular. They are pretty much bunny crack. You don’t want to go overboard, but small amounts of fruit is healthier than yogurt drops for sure.

Running up to you can also be excitement, particularly if they think you have something for them. One of the reasons I can never get good pictures. They are always blurs…

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]
