Feeding them veggies and pellets together is great, either during pre-bonding (so separated by a barrier), or during bonding sessions, as long as one bun doesn’t get food aggressive.

When they approached either other’s neck, were his ears forward or back? He was probably considering mounting if his ears were facing forwards. If that’s the case,…[Read more]

Adding more evidence to our theory that lionheads like other lionheads the best (because they just KNOW that they are GORGEOUS) X-D

Hello everyone. Such cute fluffs! So lucky that owen is a little lap bunny! Glenn will snuggle into my leg or even chest when I’m laying down for ages but will never get on my lap 😂.

I have finally found a way to add photos into posts! Yay!

Here are my two lionheads on a bonding date having a little snuggle. Glenn (black) and recent adoptee…[Read more]

Do you think he might be getting gassy or uncomfortable for some reason? Do you use pellets to get him to go in? Just want to make sure something health related is ruled out before deciding he’s just stubborn. :p

Is it a big jump for him to go in? Maybe adding a ramp could help?

I don’t have anything to add, just want to echo that Ginger is so beautiful!

I have experienced this before, it’s so annoying! I usually end up using the less preferred hay to line their boxes with, and put the hay they like in their hay rack. Some things you just can’t force them on!

Great! We love to hear updates on how things go!

So true! And even cheaper still if you can find it for horses!

I use pine pellets but I put a fluffy layer of hay on top so it’s softer on their feet.

Keep us posted! They don’t look too terrible yet but I think having the vet take a look is the right call.

Can you give a better picture of the timeline of events and his diet and medications? I’m just not sure of the timings of things.

Recovery from stasis can be pretty slow, so it can be important to continue supportive care until the bun is back to normal. If he isn’t eating hay normally, you should be syringe feeding critical care to make sure…[Read more]

That’s good news!

Hmmm, I don’t think shredded wheat would be good for buns lacking access to hay although it’s probably an OK occasional treat. Although it’s high fiber relative to a dog’s carnivore diet, it’s high starch relative to grass (an herbivore’s diet).

In a case where hay is hard to come by, I think a variety of natural forage would probably be the best…[Read more]

When I had to give pen-g injections to one from a bonded pair I never separated them (but caveat that the other bun didn’t do much of the grooming in the pair). If it’s injected properly there really shouldn’t be any coming out. I think trimming the hair is a good idea if it helps you see. I think separating for that long is pretty…[Read more]

P.s whenever they get to interact with other other,my rabbit (dash) seemed to aim at my other rabbit’s neck! (grey)

What does this normally mean? I didn’t let dash do anything to grey as I was holding him..so he wasn’t practically free..to do anything to the other rabbit..also when dash aimed at the neck,grey seemed to be bowing his head down..

Okay if the fights become worse/often I will do that. As for my dad not wanting them doing that, I don’t know he doesn’t say.

If this humping is new, the fighting is likely a sign that this new behavior is challenging the relationship dynamic they settled on earlier. If it gets more frequent with nips/lunges/aggression, I recommend going back to some bonding in neutral so they can work out the dynamic again in a more safe controlled environment.

The humping is not at…[Read more]

I have seen Ollie now three times go at cinnimon really quick, why are they fighting? Cinnimon gets over it pretty quick but still.
