DanaNM replied to the topic This bun keeps digging on my bed!! in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 10 months ago
I would block access (x-pens work well for this). Digging is a normal and fun behavior for buns, so it will probably be easiest to just keep her off the bed if she’s ruining things.

It’s harder with babies because you don’t know what their personality will be, whereas with adults, you’ll have a better idea of their personality and how it will mesh with you existing rabbit. You should be able to bond then after she’s spayed, but I wouldn’t bother trying until then.

I know it’s only been a few short hours but it seems as if we’ve made some progress! Tig ran around for about an hour last night before we went to bed, and for the first time explored Zoey’s bed and her toys. This morning after we had let Tig out, my wife held her on the couch and we let Zoey out of the bedroom. She came over to my wife, and nu…[Read more]

Hello all, I haven’t posted in a while but recently my 6yr old Holland Lop, Pascal, has been having worse grooming issues. He is slightly overweight and has never been good about grooming himself but the most recent time he had a few bad mattes, and has had poop getting caught up in his endless shedding. He is on a diet and is by no means a lazy…[Read more]

There’s always a possibility you may be able to, but you need to keep in mind that as she progresses through puberty, the dynamic of the relationship can change and may require you to intervene and separate them to varying degrees.

Wick…do you think I can’t bond them at all or just not until she is spayed? I haven’t gotten her yet so I’m trying to decide if this is a bad idea before I commit and pick her up.

Bu20055 replied to the topic This bun keeps digging on my bed!! in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 10 months ago
I have a loft, so the buns don’t have access to my bed, but they dig at their own blankets. Some people just need to block off couches or beds, or maybe you could cover your bed with a older/cheaper blanket or sheet so she would dig that instead? The digging could also be something that lessens after her spay.

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Two rabbits humping each other in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 10 months ago
Humping is not a sex-linked behavior for rabbits, nor is it always sexual. Female and male rabbits will hump other female and male rabbits as a sign of dominance. It’s important that if there is a lot of humping, the two rabbits are working out their hierarchy. Most likely, this will also include potentially biting/nipping/fighting, so you must be…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Introducing a 2 month old Flemie to a 8 month old Flemie in the forum BONDING 5 years, 10 months ago
You most likely cannot bond her to him, as her hormones will make it extremely challenging once they emerge. Young rabbits pretty easily get along with other rabbits, making the appearance that all is well, but when hormones hit, the relationship may change. There’s also the possibility that the presence of an unfixed rabbit will make your current…[Read more]

Byunbyun started the topic Should I separate my two rabbits that have snuffles? in the forum BONDING 5 years, 10 months ago
My two rabbits were both diagnosed with snuffles last week, and one of them has it worse due to his age (10 years old). My other rabbit is 2 years old. I know that infected rabbits should be separated from healthy rabbits, but is it necessary to separate them if they both have snuffles? My only concern is that one of them has it worse…not sure…[Read more]

Noodletherabbit thank you! Yeah I’m not sure either. Maybe because it drips. That’s a good idea with the veggies. I’ll try that out today!

Bam replied to the topic Is my Timothy Hay Bad? in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 10 months ago
Yellow hay doesnt have to be bad. It can mean its dried a few extra days in the field in the sun.
If the hay smells bad, or if you see white or black mold, obviously throw it out. It is however not possible for our noses or eyes to pick up on all potentially harmful fungi and bacteria that hay can contain.
Hay that has dried outside for 5 days…[Read more]

Hey guys! I am a bit concerned about the hay that I just got and wanted to run it by you guys.
We get our hay from the shelter that we adopted our rabbits from initially. We picked up a new bale of Timothy, we think it was a little older than some other grass just because they were really low on Timothy stock. It doesn’t smell off and I haven’t…[Read more]
