Thank you all for responding. I was not aware of bladder sludge until now, but with that info I think that matches what he has. Calcium compounds are white-ish right? I’m pretty sure I saw it but it was hard to see because he only had it on his bed and blankets, so it was getting absorbed. I still saw a few stains of this sludge on his bed even a…[Read more]

Something to note about bladder sludge concerns is water consumption and exercise are both important to deter sludge, in addition to diet. I agree that from just one photo, it looks more like thicker urine than diarrhea or mucous.

Re: adding pictures, you can always upload a link from a website like imgr if you’re having trouble with the site!

If he’s 10 months old he’s not a baby, so that’s great!

As LBJ says, this could perhaps be bladder sludge. Bladder sludge is thick and pasty and consists of calcium compounds.

Have you seen more stains like this?

I agree he will be fine and prob happier in his normal spot. 🙂

I agree that he will be fine as long as your mom knows his routines and what health things to monitor. 🙂

I guess I’m just surprised at the volume that needs to be drank… 1 L of medicine is a lot!

Thank you both for the replies! From what I searched, ponazuril can’t be bought here and I couldn’t find where to try order it from, so I will ask my vet about it. Here usually Sulfacox or Salicox is used when it comes to coccidia, beside my vet, two of my teachers are vets so I often consult with them, too, and they confirmed it. It’s written on…[Read more]

It’s not letting me add an image but an acquaintance who knew a lot more about rabbits than me told me before that he was around 4 months. So I’m guessing he’s around 10 months? probably nearing 1 year.

Thanks for responding. I’m not sure what his exact age is because he is a ferral domestic rabbit, I can attach a picture right when he got him (1st week of June). His poop has gotten darker and smaller when he started eating the Oxbow timothy hay I got him last time, thats why I switched to a different brand because the batch I got from Oxbow w…[Read more]

Looks more like sludge in the picture.

I never had issues having my parents come take care of the buns. They would immediately realize it was them coming to feed them, etc. and would quickly adjust to the slightly different schedule. Then we would come home and they would be like “oh hey, are you going to feed us or what?”.

What part of Southern CA are you in?

If you’re in the San Diego area, I had a good experience with Dr. Kelly at VCA Acacia in Escondido.

Its normally not to hard to replace power cords on things if your handy with a screwdriver and soldering iron. Rabbits will chew and destroy everything in reach. Wire mesh is normally your best friend for bunny proofing.

Here in the UK finding a rabbit savvy vet combined with a fair priced vet has been a real headache because of recent events many vets will not accept new customers where as others are charging extortionate amounts, listed as rabbit savvy but have not got much experience with rabbits or there rabbit vets have retired.

Rabbits are at high risk…[Read more]

She wont let me near them, each time I put my hand near her nest she will lunge at me so I’ll leave them alone I think there is a third one in her nest too. I’ll give it another week and I’ll attempt to have another peak to see exactly how many babies she has. I’ll get some photos up when they are a bit more visible in the nest.
