Iโd say take a step back for a few more weeks to give your male some more time. They should have ideally a month or two after the neuter to let the hormones settle down. Your female could possibly use a bit more time too. More cage swaps could be good as well.

Iโve just started the bonding process for my two rabbits. My female was spayed early last month, and my male a few weeks ago. I was swapping their scents and such at first, then had them see each other with a barrier in between. They were eating together, flopping next to the barrier, and happily honking. I thought those were all good signs, so I…[Read more]

Perhaps you can redirect that energy into a dig box or something. Like hey, I can dig here all I want and my owner doesn’t stop me!

I would also add that there could be non-ec causes of sneezing/discharge, so trying a different antibiotic can be worth exploring. I also would say that going 4 weeks without increased severity in the sneezing/discharge is notable. My Wick similarly did not improve on Baytril, but when we stopped it, it got worse. That is just one case example,…[Read more]

Hi my Mom just bought some Veggie Sticks for my rabbit as treats, but I’m not sure if it’s healthy for her! According to my research on Google it said that it is healthy but I don’t think I trust it! What do I do? Is it safe for her to eat as treats? Thank you in advance! ๐

Bam replied to the topic Digging up grass in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 11 months ago
A rabbit that’s very interested in digging would probably dig in pebbles too, but it would be a lot less nice and much harder on the paws. You could perhaps cover part of the grass with metal netting (the grass will soon grow through so its ok to have a wire bottom run if its placed in direct contact with the grass), and keep a little bit free for…[Read more]

Update : Milo completed the shots and genital region appears to be a lot better, he even had interested in his stuffed toy for atleast one day. Unfortunately the Baytril he has been taking for four weeks hasn’t seemed to make any huge improvements. He is still sneezing/ has white snot in one side of his nostril, and some tear/red stained areas of…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Digging up grass in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 11 months ago
The only thing I can think of that would really work would be to secure a piece of wire mesh over the sod, so the grass could poke up through it but they couldn’t dig.
But… digging is a very enriching activity for bunnies, and I think one of the benefits of giving them outdoor access. So maybe they would be happier if allowed to dig?

Hi guys!
Iโm looking into starting a mini indoor bunny garden for the wintertime, because the quality of veggies from the grocery store is already majorly decreasing 🙁. Iโm looking at a local plant nursery, and theyโve got a ton of neat-looking lettuce varieties, many that Iโve never heard of before. So Iโm wondering, are all varieties…[Read more]

How do I stop my rabbit from digging up the grass? My two rabbits have a bunny run that they share in which I purchase sod to place in the bunny run. One bunny keeps digging up the sod. How do I stop the behavior? Or what can I use for a substitute in place of the sod? Will they still dig if I was to place pebbles there?

DanaNM replied to the topic Neutered bun and intact female? in the forum BONDING 5 years, 11 months ago
Agree with Wick 100%. Definitely don’t allow any interaction until they are both castrated. Mating can occur in a flash. Also don’t underestimate how hard he will try to get to her… he will likely try very hard! So make sure their areas are very secure.

DanaNM replied to the topic extremely itchy ears ๐ mites? infection? HELP in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 11 months ago
A lot (maybe most) bunnies have a low level of mites that never cause problems. Then sometimes they have a flair up, possibly due to stress or other impacts on the immune system.
It could also be an ear infection. Either way the vet should be able to straighten things out easily. ๐

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Neutered bun and intact female? in the forum BONDING 5 years, 11 months ago
It sounds like, at this time, neither of them are fixed, in which case you should not let them out together to avoid unexpected pregnancies. It does not take long and rabbits are very wired to mate and protect, so you want to make sure they are separated while both are not fixed.
There is a hormonal spike following a neuter, and typically it’s…[Read more]

Kitty and the Buns replied to the topic Should I bond my spayed female rabbit with my new intact male bunny? in the forum BONDING 5 years, 11 months ago
You can attempt… it’s a lot of work though. I think I was only lucky because my spayed flemmie has a generally good tempermant. After multiple sessions of car bonding, they finally got along. Very risky and LOTS of supervision or working around stuff.
