oops, and of course the xray, I meant to add that... thanks again!!!

Thanks everyone for all your very helpful suggestions... I found out that the specialist this vet spoke of is on your rabbit-savvy list and is only about 35-40 minutes away. I will bring her up there and get an xray and ask him for a 2nd opinion and a different antibiotic, etc... THANKS!!!!

I think she was talking about grinding down the spurs... she said that they use a mask to keep the rabbit anesthetized, so they have to mask, then grind, then mask, then grind... and she didn't seem to want to attempt this. There is a vet about an hour away who can do this but he was very...

Hi everyone, I have an older bun, Rosie,that my relative gave my daughterin late April or early May. This bun has lived in a big hutch outdoors all her life. The vet came to the houseright after we got herto examineher and noticed she had a little watery eye and said that might go away once I...

What kind of hay is the stuff that farmers sell? My inlaws are farmers and we just pick up a bale whenever we need it, but I have no idea what kind of hay it is...

how do you use the towel? scoop them up in it? or do you try to wrap it around them? I'm kind of confused how I would accomplish getting the towel around my buns...

It's good to ask the farmer for "2nd cut" hay, it's a better quality.

Add Butterscotch and Rosie, for 410!

... oh, and they're in my breezeway with lots of windows and I keep a box fan going...

I put big flat marble rocks (about the size of a brick) in my frig for my buns. When the temp reaches above 80 I take one out and it keeps them cool for hours, I also put ice cubes in their water crocks...

horny little buggers... :)

We took cardboard boxes and cut doors and windows in them and taped some together... they have had a lot of fun with these... Butter likes big balls, she'll roll it around... and a small fleece blanket; they both love to nudge and poke at it and move it around... but by far the most fun for them...

It's good to know that other buns are just as picky eaters as mine... Butter LOVES fresh long grass. But only certain kinds. I live on a dirt road with plenty of long grass that grows alongside the road so I walk and pick her a handful most every morning. Through trial and error, I've learned...

I had no idea the land of lago's was so pockmarked with mountains and canyons and the language so tricky! haha...
