OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

Sounds like a tricky bond but the approach you picked is going good!! Always go with your gut!!!

Hi Sarah1! Since this is an old topic, you will probably not a get response back, so I’m going to lock this topic. I encourage you to start your own topic so active members can give their thoughts on your question. If you have any questions on how to do this, feel free to private…

I too am interested in knowing, did you by chance ever find out?

I have 3 months old French lop bunny. The breeder said that I should give to Romeo 2.5dl pellets for junior rabbits every day until he is 1 year old. It is 1.5 to 2.5dl/day to other bunnies too. After 1 year, the amount should be smaller. Doesn’t matter wether you give half of it…

<p style=”padding-left: 40px;”>This is their final home! They were in their neutral until they were ok without supervision so I decided to try the non neutral permanent home. Maybe we can try the play area tonight or tomorrow. I just wasn’t sure if I should sleep by then tonight but I think they are good.…

The scent glands can get plugged up and need cleaning (pretty easy to do), or they could just actually be marking with them. If it’s just from cecotropes then you wouldn’t need to do anything.

You can check the front teeth at home by pulling back her lips, but the back teeth need to be checked by a vet.
-
Woohoo!!! Congrats!!! Of course we all want to see pictures! So technically I would prob supervise again tonight if you can. But you can trust your gut. If they just seem like the best friends ever and are totally happy with each other, they are prob fine. Moving to a new zone (especially if it’s…

Oh no I forgot to sniff it before I put it in the wash 😢. The next time it happens I’ll check to see what it smells like. What would it mean if it’s from the scent glands? Cecotropes? Or needs cleaning?
-
Our first over night went great! They seem to be bonded. I know the rule of thumb is 48 hours. Does that mean they need supervised tonight as well or are they good?!? When can I let them out in their play area together? After the 48 hours?

Hi Bam Thanks for that. Boo was given that originally by the local vet who wasn’t an exotic vet. The exotic vet put her on it after her dental and then Molly Varga prescribed me more of it. If there is no improvement on the domperidone I can always ask for metaclopromide. Shes had it…
-
Also, I have one more concern but I dont want to make a whole new thread because I kind of come up with many new worries at once heh but how do I check Rain’s teeth properly? I tried my best because I really want to make sure theyre okay and I’m kind of panicking…
-
Yes, sounds normal!
-
I have only used metoclopramide of the motility drugs you mention. It worked very well for my rabbit.
-
You can cut off the loose fur, but be very careful not to nick his skin. You should contact the vet again. Is it both eyes? Are the eyes red and irritated? The vet could prescribe antibiotic eye drops for starters, most commonly fucithalmic, to see if that will help. They should be able to…

Hi! Welcome back! What kind of flooring is it? Carpet? Or wood? I’ve had the best luck with a big piece of plywood with vinyl tiles stuck on top. I ended up using these tiles that are similar to what they use in hospitals and industrial type places. Then some blankets or grass mats for…

@Hazel I’m trying not to worry! I actually just dropped my three off with her till Monday for her to work bonding them. I don’t expect them to be fully bonded or anything, but am just hoping she can make some progress and then I can finish them up. If they aren’t showing any forward…

Awww I love the feathered friends!

Very cute set-up. 🙂 But yeah it looks like they could nip noses through that fence. You can either make it double walled with a buffer of 4-6 inches, or add some smaller mesh panels (like 1/4″ hardware cloth) to prevent them from nipping each other. It also looks like the might be able to…
