    We've lost half of my family's rabbits (8 out of 16) and we don't know whats causing it :(

    hello just an update, based on all of the advice mentioning mites...all of the bunnies were brought indoors and they were put into individual living spaces so as not to mingle. The outdoor area was cleaned up and petroleum jelly was applied to the bunnies problem areas. A couple more bunnies...
