Hey! I have a New Zealand White buck who stopped drinking and eating hay/pellets a couple of days ago. He will readily eat treats such as oats and carrots, but I can't get him to eat his pellets or hay. He has a crock bowl instead of a bottle for his water and it's not frozen over, so I see no reason why he is not drinking. Any thoughts?
Also, because he stopped eating, I did an overall health check. Teeth seem fine, stool is fine. I'm going to clean out the hutch so I can keep an eye on any new droppings.
However, I noticed a small white lump underneath his skin near his "faculties". Anyone have any ideas as to what this could be?
Don't know how relevant this is (could be cause for loss of appetite), but there is a loose female rabbit running around my property driving my bucks crazy. Both of my boys are intact because they were 4-H show animals, but I am looking into getting them neutered.
Thanks in advance for any input!
