I just get horse hay from a farm and my girl likes it a lot. You mentioned that you don’t want to get a 10 pound box? Is it space constraints or shipping costs? If it’s space I think you can get farm hay by the flake as well but not too sure. Buying farm hay is good because you can tell the quality before you buy it and because you safe quite a b…[Read more]

To add on to what Dana said just make sure it’s cat GRASS and not cat NIP.

ok 🙂 tysm for your help!

So you have basically just started! So honestly your bond sounds like it will probably be pretty easy if they started grooming and cuddling that quickly.

I would maybe pause and do a bit more pre-bonding (maybe a week or two). Letting him get really used to her scent through the cage swaps might make her less exciting when they are actually…[Read more]

That all sounds like very relaxed behavior and is a great sign!

Spay/Neuter
Are your bunnies spayed/neutered?

yes

If so, for how long (for each)?

4 months for me female (she didn’t have any hormones though because she is a hermaphrodite)

1 month for my male

If not, why not?

Are you aware of reproductive cancer risk in females? If not, please read about it here.

Housing
Please describe your bunnies’ cu…[Read more]

Thanks DanaNM! 🙂 I forgot to add that Pinky groomed his own face during the session and layed down on his belly.

I actually timed the session wrong, it was 20 minutes. Oops! It still went well, though. 😀

ok thankyou 🙂

I did a full side swap last night and they are NOT happy about it. Which makes me think it was the right move LOL.

So now we’ll see how long it takes them to chill out! Had to watch pretty closely because BJ and Myra were trying to nip Bonnie through the fence, and then turned on each other, but settled down after a bit.

Oh Baylor! What a cute little rascal though. I do feel your pain… Dorian recently decided the deck slats are super tasty. I am not sure what to do there, I have a rug, but I can’t get one big enough for the whole deck so it’s sadly now just deck time if heavily supervised, also rent so sort of not sure how to fix that (they are starting to decay…[Read more]

That sounds like a wonderful first session! Way to go!

DanaM – Hope you get cooler weather soon, in the meantime Bonnie looks cute snuggled with her ice bottle.

Bernard2020 – that is indeed an adorable squishy face! She looks very relaxed!

Unfortunately I can’t see Oreo’s photos… I just get broken image

And here is Dorian… he’s been into helping me with work lately.

and of course sleeping…[Read more]

Agreed. You don’t want to use something that had pesticides on it at some point, even if it’s just the seeds. Organic seeds would be safe though. A common grass to sprout for bunnies is wheat grass (AKA cat grass). You can get the seeds in bulk at health food stores.

I’m sure Mabel will be fine! A one-time exposure to a scented wax melter plus hairspray that you used in your bathroom cant have hurt her. Plus you aired it out!

Its not recommended to use essential oil diffusers or incense with rabbits close by, and wax melters would most likely fall into that category. The problem is mainly with long term,…[Read more]
