Mrs. Steele started the topic Ear infection question in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years ago
Hi, my sweet lop eared bunny, Penelope is almost 7 years old. We LOVE her and would do anything for her. She is my therapy animal pretty much! We noticed her starting to tilt her head and shake her ears a bit just a few days ago. We took her to the vet yesterday and she doesn’t have mites but the vet did say she had some build up and a small i…[Read more]

But the bald spots must be from something right?

Thank you Wick for the info and photos! I’ll keep that stuff in mind.
We’re going to the vet tomorrow, the vet said that it looks like an infected cut from the photos. But can’t be sure until Muffin is seen in person. The vet said that Muffin would be treated with antibiotics orally if it is an infected cut.

Bam replied to the topic Less expensive (but just as healthy), alternatives to Oxbow rabbit food? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years ago
Here is a website that compares the nutritional values of many pellet brands.
Ideally a rabbit pellets should have 20% fiber as a minimum, this website says 18%, but my rabbit savvy vet says 20 or higher.
An adult healthy rabbit needs about 1 tablespoon pellets of compressed pellets (Oxbow pellets are compressed type pellets) per kilo body…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Bald spot next to mouth in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years ago
It’s probably veggie staining. In my experience, the skin looks visibly and texturally unhealthy when something is amiss. Now having exposed skin is generally a risk factor for eventually getting an infection, simply because if the skin gets scratched and opens up, things might get in the wound, just like with humans. Also, places that tend to be…[Read more]

In terms of rabbit food, are you referring to the pellets, treats, and/or hay?
For hay, typically people get much lower prices if they have a local farm that sells it.
I definitely do not want to downplay any expense, regardless how frequently one buys it, but if you find yourself buying pellet bags very often, I wonder if you may be feeding too…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Brown stains on blanket in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years ago
Rabbits sometimes eat normal poop for a variety, but general harmless reasons, so I wouldn’t worry to much about that in particular unless it’s accompanied by other worrying/abnormal behaviors. If there is a sudden rise in frequency, I would raise a flag as well.
The stains could from ceco-juice, but typically it doesn’t spread that much. Pee…[Read more]

Hey guys! I’m not 100% sure how this works yet as I’m brand new to the binky community, but I have a year old holland lop (male/neutered) who isn’t taking well to a new kitten I adopted. He lunges towards her when he’s in his cage and will grunt and bite the cage when she comes near. I have to let them have their roaming times separately because…[Read more]

Moonlightbunny66 started the topic Brown stains on blanket in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years ago

I keep seeing these stains on the blankets when I use my light pink ones. What could this be? Little pee spots? Liquid from eating cecotropes? (Pretty sure those light green stains are from eating their greens).By the way I saw Muffin eat an actual dried poop off the floor today……… Not sure if it was Pinky’s or his. Gross but funny and c…[Read more]
