    Help with babies! ASAP

    I moved my does nesting box to a bigger enclosure and she was fine with it. I just made sure she could see them and then brought her to them. As for sexing, I sexed mine at 3 weeks then asked the vet to make sure I was right at their 5 week check up. I only had one female so thought maybe I'd...

    2019 Cages - add your photo!

    Yes I made it with treated timber and lots of mesh. I had wrist strain from using the wood staple gun so much haha. The hutch is fine at the moment - although it is quite a flimsy one. I've bought a roof panel to go over where the hutch is but I haven't fitted it yet. My rabbits don't dig for...

    HELP ORPHAN RABBIT BABIES AND RETARDED MOTHER.

    Agreed :) First time mommies need all the help they can get. Creating that bond and providing them with a nest, nutritious food and plenty of water is the best we can do.

    HELP ORPHAN RABBIT BABIES AND RETARDED MOTHER.

    Completely agree on the empathy part. I have seen does absolutely dote on their babies. My current nursing doe is one and my rabbit as a child took my dad to the runt of her litter, who was dieing, by nipping his hand and nudging was the other. She was the rabbit who made me fall in love with...

    Need Advice on New Mom and Babies AGRESSION TO ME

    I was referring to the behaviour improving before then - not to the weaning happening before then. My litter are starting weaning now at 5 weeks - they are doing it themselves not due to my intervention. I won't be separating the mum full time untill 8 weeks. Although it is unusual for...

    HELP ORPHAN RABBIT BABIES AND RETARDED MOTHER.

    Giving birth to more babies days after the first litter sounds as though they have had more than one encounter with a male. Have you sexed your rabbits yourself to ensure they are the genders you were told? I would try to work out which kits belong to who and put them in two separate enclosures...

    Sudden Aggression

    Are your rabbits spayed? If the younger rabbit has just reached 6 months she'll be getting hormonal and your older rabbit may be seeing her as a rival rather than a baby. Another suggestion is that your older female is still feeling unwell and cranky? Do the antibiotics appear to be working? As...

    Need Advice on New Mom and Babies AGRESSION TO ME

    Awh they're adorable! My doe was a little grunty near the end of her pregnancy but has been friendly otherwise. I have read that it depends on how long her hormones take to settle down, she could also just be a very protective mum. She should be back to her usual self by the time she weans the...

    Suggestions? Bunny doesn't like to be pet??? FRUSTRATED

    I recently acquired a male lionhead that had spent the first 10 months of his life in a shed. He was very shy, easily startled, hated petting etc I've had him 2 months now and he is a different rabbit. He still enjoys his own space at times and will walk off if he's busy - rather than running...

    breeding buck issues

    Hi there I'm going to try and give you advice on your original question rather than get into the debate about breeding rabbits. I bought a lionhead buck from an irresponsible breeder - they had used him to stud and decided to move on to Holland Lops so were selling him cheap online. I could see...

    Bunny Bonding Frustrations

    Are your rabbits allowed to free roam of do they have a larger outside pen? I find that although rabbits are said to be social animals they also love their own space. Mine all have their own nighttime pens and are only happy to share a space if it's large and not their cage/hutch. Are you...

    My rabbit never drinks water ?

    I read that it was good practice to give rabbits a water bowl and a water bottle in case they have a preference - especially when it's warm to encourage hydration. Edit: just realised how old this thread is, not sure why it came up in my emails.
