Hazel replied to the topic How to Litter train Rabbits? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Thank you! 🙂 If you’re talking about my avatar, he’s one of my bridge bunnies. Yours are cuties as well! 😀
I was thinking maybe they didn’t like to step on the litter but Carefresh is plenty soft, so that shouldn’t be an issue. I use horse stall pellets, feed stores like Tractor Supply sell them for around $6 for a 40 lbs bag. It works…[Read more]

Lops4Life! replied to the topic Rabbit mites- HELP! in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Yes, they are the vets we always see and are the best in where I live- pretty much everyone goes there.
As it is that time of year, perhaps it is because of the moulting, but it is in only one area. What does that mean? -
Bam replied to the topic Seeing Cecotropes in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
I agree with LBJ. Just keep an eye on things. Stress changes the pH of the gut which in turn changes the bacterial/fungal flora in the cecum. It doesnt have to be severe/detrimental stress, just the impact of a change of enviroment. It’s nothing to worry about as long as the bun keeps eating, especially hay, and drinking.
Check daily for…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Rabbit mites- HELP! in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
A photo can definitely be helpful. Sometimes just natural shedding/molting can cause dandruff and white flakes, but it goes away once brushed or when the new fur finally grows in and the dead skin falls out.
I am also wondering what a rabbit pimple is? Are the vets you contacted people who you have met before and feel are experienced with…[Read more]

Lops4Life! replied to the topic Rabbit mites- HELP! in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
That’s what I thought!
thanks for the tips! I am going to look online and perhaps order one of those. Apparently oil can help to? How do you apply this? -

A rabbit pimple? What’s a rabbit pimple?
There’s no need to separate them at this point. If you think it’s mites, then you can treat them both with Revolution or Advantage. If it turns out to not be mites, then no harm done. I’m not sure where you are. Depending on the country, you may not be able to buy these products over the counter. Even if…[Read more]

Great to hear! I’d definitely stay somewhat vigilant for a while longer until they truly realize it’s a new part of the routine haha.

Lops4Life! replied to the topic Bulk Veggies in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey!
I tend to grow my own veggies! But I also collect forage from areas which can also be as effective as veggies! Make sure to have an even mix of both though! You can always use leafy mixes that people use in salads, but make sure that they are ok for them to eat 🙂

<p style=”padding-left: 40px;”>I agree with LBJ in those are the most likely reasons. At the same time yes you may see an occasional one here or there and that doesn’t need to be too much of a concern. Regardless, it’s great that you were able to recognize this change.</p>
How many have you been seeing lately?

LBJ10 replied to the topic Seeing Cecotropes in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Two things typically cause this:
- A young bunny on a rich diet will simply produce too many and they won’t eat some of them.
- An older bunny starts to develop arthritis and it make it difficult for them to reach them.
Other causes can include a bunny having GI issues (lots of causes) or a bunny responding to stress (although this seems less…[Read more]

Oops, 1.5yo, as in one and half years old… though I hope she would make it to 15yo 🙂 Oh they are so cute! I love the helicopter ears, ahh! Both of them also have gorgeous, fluffy coats.

Wow! 15 years old! That’s amazing! I think that I refreshed the page too soon to send the picture so it didn’t work 😂

Thanks for the heads up! We are ongoing in our efforts to fix up various glitches and technical issues. I will add this to our list and see what the outcome may be. It is possible that we may remove the friend feature, since it is not one we had in our previous forum version; however, we’ll see what happens! You are free to DM any user you’d like…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Theo has to have his teeth burred after 2nd vet visit 🙁 in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
My Netherland Dwarf Wick has had 14 molar spur grindings at this point — all of which he made through fine, as you can imagine (he’s sleeping right next to me right now, haha). The first dozen all happened before he hit 2yo, so he was very young, and very small; however, I fully trusted our vet and she was very explicit in explaining exactly…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Infected toenail!! What should I do??? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I’m glad you were able to find someone. I would have suggested an oral antibiotic as the way to go. Once an infection gets inside, it is difficult to control from the outside. You’ll have to keep us updated. Torn nails rarely become infected. When they do, it needs to be addressed quickly. You did a good job finding a vet on short notice. This has…[Read more]
