I did wean them all of a sudden �� I can I tell if she has mestasis? She is pooping regularly and the babies are in the cage right next to hers. I did reduce her pellets. I feel awful not knowing what's going on with her.

She has also been kicking her litter out of her box. Sometimes if we put too much she gets mad and will kick some out, but the other day I walked in and there was none in the box.

We just weaned Clover's babies from her Saturday; they are 8 weeks. They are doing well, but we noticed that Clover has been acting a little off. Whenever I let them all out for play time she goes into their crate and doesn't want to come out sometimes and she's not eating her hay. She will eat...

Thank you! I'm going to try switching her back to Timothy with just a tiny bit of alfalfa and see if that helps!

So Clover has been passing a lot of cecotropes but also hard round poos. We still have her on an unlimited pellets and mix of timothy and alfalfa hay. I just don't know what would be causing the cecos? I've read that kits will begin eating them but I've never witnessed that. Also, her urine is a...

I'm just a worrier lol and I'm so new to this that I'm not sure what's normal. Thank you! I've also read that they will begin eating cecotropes at some point in time and will start drinking water? Do they just know they need to do this? When they are old enough will we have to teach them how to...

Our babies are about a week and 2 days old now. They are pretty active and have started nibbling on hay. My question is, how do I know if momma is still producing milk? The babies seem healthy but their tummies aren't as big and round like they were before they started growing fur; is this...

She's calmed down quite a bit. Not really sure what was going on. Hopefully, she's alright. We are just keeping an eye on her now. We did call the vet and he told us to just keep an eye on her and watch for nasal discharge.

Thanks! I will figure something out for her!! I also noticed when she lies down on her left side her belly feels a little hard. Is this normal for bunny moms? I almost want to say that's where her milk is stored? But I'm because I'm so new to all of this!

Thank you! I'm just super paranoid about them not making it since we lost the runt and this is our first time with this (hopefully our last). I just don't want them to traumatize her and her not want to feed them! When we are home she has free range of the room but she just jumps up in her...

Our kits are now out of their box! How exciting!! They tried to go to mom for some milk but she was not having it. Is this normal? She would just hop away. They are only 13 days old. Also, we noticed her urine is a reddish orange color, could this be because of her eating alfalfa instead of timothy?

My sister and fiance do the poopy baths or butt baths. You just put a towel down in the sink and fill it with an inch or,two of water and just kind of rub the bum and then dry them really really well. This seems to work really well! If you Google it you can find step by step instructions. As far...

We are inside! I'm not sure the exact temperature of the room as she's in a bedroom. I think it's cold but my fiance said it's really warm?

What about the really fast breathing? That really has me freaked out. I've read that it could be her being over heated trying to make milk?

Hello! I'm new here, so I'm sorry if this post belongs somewhere else or already exists. My bun Clover had a surprise litter on the 23rd. She had 3 Sunday and a still born Monday. The runt didn't make it :( We've been feeding her alfalfa hay and her regular pellets. She's eating like crazy...
