We think being a bunny person is perfectly normal. It's the other people who don't know what they're missing.

Yes. a probiotic is a must, as it restores the good bacteria that the antibiotic indiscriminately kills off. You can use benebac or something made for humans, as long a it contains probiotic strains that work in the intestines, not just in the stomach.

I find wheat grass is easy to grow, basically just like regular grass except it needs replanting from time to time. I got my wheat berries from a health food store; you can get 1-2 lbs online etc

You may find she doesn't want to eat or drink anything while the car is moving, so be prepared for some stops.

Maybe slightly, but I really can't tell. If he's eating ok, take another picture in a couple weeks & compare with this one.

It may be a slow process or she may come around sooner. But I don't think it's surprising she didn't settle in immediately. Things are suddenly different & she doesn't know why.

I have no idea. I remember someone posting a picture of their rabbits together with a turtle or 2, but that doesn't prove that it's safe for them to be together. I think you are right to be cautious.

Or you could slowly switch to the oatmeal rather than the granola, but maybe a total of a teaspoon or 2 spread out over a week, with such a small rabbit. I add a pinch at a time to the pellets.

I don't know about the seizure, but for the smelly anal glands, it might help to clean them out periodically using damp q-tips. I;m sure if you search the topic there will be specifics on it.

Hello & welcome. Using the library section & the search feature will answer some of your questions & we'll try to answer any you still have.

I'm glad he's better. It's always a good idea to get simethicone drops etc to have on hand just in case they're ever needed.

It's too bad that there are no rescue/shelter places there for rabbits. The best way to get a 2nd rabbit is to have your spayed rabbit meet other neutered rabbits & find out who might be compatible. Many shelters/rescues in the US etc have such meetings.

Is he eating hay ok? Does he feel like he might have gas?

Once her hormones hit, you probably will be eager for the spaying, lol.

Welcome.

If you mean she's going to be loose in the car, I don't think I'd do that. She'll feel safer in her cage. Outside time should be where the yard hasn't been treated with pesticides, even last fall,& where there aren't wild rabbits to get diseases/parasites from their droppings.

I.m glad you found us. Is she eating hay all right? If not, I'd take her to the vet's asap. Once she's better, I'd slowly remove carrots from her diet, They have too much sugar. Leafy greens but not iceberg lettuce, are the best food, once hay & pellets are in the mix.

It sounds to me she just momentarily had the breath knocked out of her.

I hate to say it, but maybe Franklin should be kept separate from the other 2.

Please save up for the mother's spay, so it can be done in another year, 18 months. Then start saving for the daughter's spay. Having more babies is fun for you, but not helpful for the rabbits.
