    Seizure....any information woudl be appreciated

    They can not be attributed to injury or poison. They do not result in the direct death of the rabbit. They most often onset with no warning and manifest in grand mall form. The rabbit recovers from the seizure to just have another days, weeks or even months latter. The stories are varied but...

    Lionhead

    This sounds like it might be the problem. She sounds like it is adefense mechanism, that she is feeling threatened. First thing youshould do is get your hands on her and check her over carefully forwounds. Next thing I would do is give her a cage of her own. If theother rabbit is attacking her...

    another lionhead question

    There are even a lot of double manes that do not retain their mane.This is what is so challenging about the lionheads. Mane retention is getting better but there is no guarantee how much mane they will retainas an adult. The crosses to other breeds are also done to help correct body type that...

    another lionhead question

    Your baby more than likely will not keep it's mane. I did not have any that retained manes when I did the first cross to Netherland. Even if the lionhead parent had massive mane the F1babies did not keep theirs. You can expect maybe some little tufts between the ears or maybe a fewstrands around...

    Rabbits Eating Their Young

    You don't leave it in long enough to attract maggots. And you only use maybe a quarter to a half piece at a time. Take it out the next morning, if she didn't kindle you put in a fresh piece.

    Rabbits Eating Their Young

    I've never had any health problems using the bacon and I've been breeding for over 20 yrs. My personal thoughts on this is that they seem to be attracted to the bacon because of the salt content...just my my opinion.
