Wick & Fable replied to the topic Chewing xpen bars in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
It’s a common phenomena for a rabbit to chew the bars once they know there is land beyond it they can access. There are actually many instances where, even if the pen door is open, a rabbit will chew on the bars, haha. Try to put yourself in your rabbit’s shoes — why on earth am I being arbitrarily kept from the rest of my territory? Ugh! One of…[Read more]

I also noticed him doing it mostly hen I’m out of the room. He could also be being a little naughty, and he’s very sassy. I offered him several other chews and placed them where he’s been chewing, and they distracted him a bit and he continues to push around the xpen and chew it.

Wick & Fable replied to the topic My three female rabbits are not getting along, what should I do? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Many rabbits do do better with companions! Unfortunately, as stated above, whether siblings or not, rabbits need to be properly bonded once they are spayed/neutered in order to solidify a safe, forever friendship with each other. That is definitely very much possible if you get them all spayed. Note that spaying them would not be a magical cure…[Read more]

Be careful giving away Bernard if your friend doesn’t know why her bunny passed! If her bunny passed suddenly and you are in an RHDV2 area, be careful before giving away the rabbit, as the virus can stay on surfaces and objects for a while.

I let him out whenever I’m in the room, he gets around 4 hours of playtime.

They are all siblings, and they get along well at times, but the dominant one, whose name is Silver, keeps biting the other ones. When I catch her biting them I tell her “no” and tap her nose lightly. But other times I poke my head in there and they’re all sleeping side by side looking so happy to be with each other. At one point during Silver’s…[Read more]

Sounds like he wants more play time. How much time does he get out of the pen?

What Dana said. There’s nothing you can do other than separate them, then have them all spayed. After that you can try to bond them.

Bam replied to the topic Rabbit ate rubber bracelet in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Bunnies sometimes eat the weirdest things. I had a bun who ate part of a hot water bottle and, at another time, half a rubber cat toy. The good thing is that rabbits tend to chew whatever they eat very well. They cant swallow big chunks of things like cats and dogs do. This makes intestinal obstruction less likely.
The recommendation is to try…[Read more]

I was busy getting some last minute assignments done for school, so I was a little bit later than usual to feed the bunnies. When I was preparing their food I realized one of my buns had something in her litter box so I went to check it out. It was a rubber bracelet, the wider ones you get at hot topic that emo kids wear. The bracelet was all…[Read more]

So is he a dwarf mini lop haha,
I asked another forum page and I got told that he is a dwarf. Because of his face isn’t as flat as a mini lop. And because he is big compared to a mini lop.
So they said they think he is a cross bread of a dwarf lop with some lionhead

Bernard2020 replied to the topic New Abandoned rabbit doesn’t do anything in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
You were right, her behavior today is completely different. We had to give her some formula so we decided to pick her up for the first time and take her out of the cage. We put blankets all over the floor and put her down. And weirdly she became so much friendlier. She didn’t mind being pet at all and she even crawled on my lap. We’ve now tak…[Read more]

lately, my bun has been chewing and pushing his xpen bars out of place. Is this a boredom behavior? does he need new chews? i give him chew sticks and toss toys and he has lots to play and chew. Does he need more free roam time?

He has all of his resources in the pen but has hidey boxes and toys outside of it.
