The site has been having issues with media uploading, it’s not just you!
I would definitely recommend getting in touch with a rescue if there’s one in your region. They maybe be able to help with medical costs and spay/neuter given the circumstances.

I managed to get the videos to work. You have to click on them. In the second video, you can see a black band around his other eye. What color are his eyes? I’m wondering if he is a Hotot without the proper markings.

Hmmm. You bring up some good points. Once the flemmies are rebonded, we need to at least give the four leaf clover of buns 🍀 a try. If not we will do the different levels, as that sounds like a great idea.
R.T was supposed to be a girl, but the owner got it wrong. We only found out when they both went in to be fixed.

martini replied to the topic Rabbit vaccinations USA in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 4 years, 10 months ago
Yes, I asked our vet in NY for any vaccine really and it was not available as NY was not considered to be an outbreak state, so the vet could not import it. As of last month when I asked, it was still not possible for neither EU vaccines or the domestic vaccine. Glad to hear that the domestic vaccine is moving on. On the other side, from the…[Read more]

Hi there, thank you for rescuing this rabbit! You are likely right in that it was dumped, so sad. 🙁
The main concerns with Southern CA and outdoor housing are heat (as you mentioned), disease, and predators. Currently in S CA there is a deadly rabbit virus circulating called RHDV2, but thankfully there is a vaccine available for it. There is a…[Read more]

Hey everyone found this rabbit where I live roaming around my yard, zoomed in on it the first time i saw it since it didn’t want to scare it. I live in coyote, hawk, snake, etc area, so I didn’t want it to die. It would come up to me but wouldnt really let me pet it at first, but I could touch it with a few fingers before it moved a few inches…[Read more]

Ah, so you have 4! I have 4 too, it can get complicated! I was trying for a quad but that didn’t work out so I ended up with two pairs.
So I noticed with my pairs, that I saw a ton more destructive and frustrated type behaviors when they were housed side by side. Once I moved into a bigger place, I opted to give 1 pair the upstairs and 1 pairs…[Read more]

So Sam and Dean are boys. Sam is my Dutch, and Dean is my Holland Lop mix.
Amara is female, and Ruby Tuesday is male. They are my Flemish giants.Just as Sam and Dean like having the babies nearby, the babies too could like having Sam and Dean around? We’ve been keeping Amara and R.T. in the downstairs cage away from Sam and Dean. They are used t…[Read more]

Oh and the sniffing thing was very brief. They didn’t get a good chance to truly meet. But it helped Dean loads. That’s why he doesn’t seem to care about having them in the same room. It will be interesting to see when they truly get to really meet. Dean reminds me so much of a dog that just has to smell a spot/item/person/animal. Unhappy till…[Read more]

Ah, this is helpful! So you have a bonded pair of boys, and then Amara? Or are the boys the ones that just had to be separated? Just trying to get all the bunnies straight.
Sometimes bunnies can have what’s called “referred aggression”, where they are upset about a bunny nearby but then will react negatively towards whoever comes closest to them.…[Read more]

R.A.D.S. replied to the topic Angry Buns in the forum BEHAVIOR 4 years, 10 months ago
Usually they are in there when we are sleeping. We have a few different play areas that are pretty large idk the dimensions. We also let them run around the entire downstairs den, which is also large so we can spend time with them in our environment. It’s always nice to watch a movie and have one of them come up onto the couch and give us some l…[Read more]

R.A.D.S. replied to the topic What is your bun's favorite "forbidden fruit"? in the forum THE LOUNGE 4 years, 10 months ago
We barely go over to the treat area and all the buns stand up like meerkats to get a treat. We can stealthily go over, but once they hear the slightest twist on one of the containers they go crazy. We keep the Timothy biscuits, dried fruits and veggies in these jars.
Apples are definitely a favorite of all of our buns, but they wouldn’t h…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Angry Buns in the forum BEHAVIOR 4 years, 10 months ago
I think this is all related to the “post-spay” craze and hormonal fluctuations, as I mentioned in your other post about bonding.
I think there is a combo of growing up and leaving behind baby-behaviors (like being OK with being handled), being feisty because of hormones, and possibly being upset at another bunny nearby that’s not a bonded…[Read more]

My Flemish giant Amara has been spayed about a month ago. For the last two weeks she’s been not only digging in her box, but kicking everything out of it. She’s only ever dug a little to move things around in the box. It’s never happened with my older buns Sam and Dean, or her brother Ruby Tuesday. How do I get this behavior to stop? It doesn…[Read more]

Sounds like a good plan, hopefully they go back together easily once their hormones mellow out more!
