She has more white and is lighter, but looks similar to my bun Bauer. She has the slate gray color at the base of her fur and is 6 lbs as well. Bauer is 1/2 Dutch, 1/2 Florida White... so I would say a Dutch cross as well :)

Thank you for sharing your story, and I hope George continues to do well! I have horses as well, and new research is showing a crazy high prevalence of ulcers in horses, young and old, performance pleasure or pasture puff.... they're found in them all. I'm sure rabbits have many of the same...

Thank you all for the condolences :bunnyhug: I'm still struggling with the unknown, but thankfully all the other buns seem to be doing well. Calamity Jane, her sister, is doing remarkably well. This is the first time Cal's ever been alone. She does still have momma Bauer next door though who...

Thank you all. I buried her today, so unfortunately will not be getting a necropsy done. I'm leaning more towards toxoplasmosis... the symptoms seem to match pretty well, and I do have a barn cat. I obviously would never let the rabbits out where there was cat feces, but maybe there was a...

I posted to the rainbow bridge announcements already :in tears: but I'm really perplexed and upset and trying to understand what happened. Sorry for the very long post. Annie passed away yesterday. She started the day absolutely normal. She lives in a giant hitch that I made, and she and her...

Hi all. I haven't been on here in quite some time. I'm having a really rough time right now. I started with two bunnies, Shamos (buck) and Bauer (doe) when I was only in elementary school. I've had bunnies since before I can even remember, and they've lived outside, but are always let out in the...

I mean, he is 8.5 years old, and I know cancer of their repro organs is not uncommon at all. It would not shock me if it was cancer. I was also reading about hernias, and some other condition where fluid fills the scrotum but is completely benign. I know they hide pain well, but he seems to be...

Here was the poor boy tonight. He still seems very happy, was happy to be pet, and tender but not extremely painful to let me examine him there. It does feel warmer than normal, so I'm honestly thinking infection. It seems strange that a tumor would be so acute and so uniform, not lumpy, hard...

Hello! I haven't been on here in forever. I have an old 8 year old buck who has seemed to slow down a bit. He normally lives outside in a large hutch with lots of out of hutch time, but he started really struggling in the heat this summer, so he's been living in the barn (with outside time...

Thank you! I will stay away from it then when picking greens for them. Better to err on the side of caution. Thank you :)

Bump? Just to clarify, I'm looking for which of the plant greens that would grow from this seed (besides corn and sunflower) are ok to feed to the bunbuns :)

I haven't been on here in forever! Just as a reintroduction, I have 7 year old Shamos (FW), 5 year old Bauer (Dutch/FW), and three of their babies from an oops litter who are now 11 months old, Annie, Calamity, and Barney (renamed). So, I rescued a disabled pigeon two years ago, and his seed...

When they have phantom pregnancies (it very well could have been triggered by "meeting" the male), I find they will have like, 1/2 a "pregnancy." So if she was with the male a week or two ago, she may be nesting now with a phantom, vs at 28 days with an actual pregnancy. However, with that said...

I have gotten my two older rabbits to do some simple obstacle courses. I think if you set it up so they have to go through it and not avoid it to start, they learn that it's pretty fun. They also really like routines, so once they figured out the pattern, I swear they get so proud they just zip...
