    200 Rabbits Rescued in Colorado

    As more information became available concerning this event, the more I felt on the fence about it. However, after seeing the recent pictures, there seems to be no doubt as to the factual extent of things. In conclusion, I do feel there is a need to point out that BOTH parties (the breeder...

    Should the rabbitry become a private forum? (All May Vote)

    On one hand, I personally think it should stay open. Simply because it helps to educate both pet owners and other breeders. On the other hand I do also feel that breeders should have a right do discuss some of the more serious issues that they go through with each other. My suggestion...

    Why do you breed?

    I breed to improve-to create stronger, healthier rabbits that meet the breed standard. It's simply a hobby that pays for itself when you see the end perfection of something you've worked really hard at.

    Webs.com??

    Webs.com often has quite a few random problems. You usually just have to wait a day or two untill the problems get resolved. I've found that using a different browser, such as Firefox or Google Chrome, will often allow you to bypass some of the problems found with editing on Webs.com

    Rabbits and chinchillas?

    Personally, I would keep them seperate. Not only to prevent the transmission of diseases, but simply because chinchillas are fragile animals, and if your rabbit were to get aggressive or overlyplayful, then your chinchilla could easily be severely injured.

    sick rabbit (RIP)

    Isit possible she may have eaten something poisonous while you had her out? If so, this can be a very classic example and she will need to see a vet ASAP as timing is everything.

    Babies spazzing?

    Kits that young rely mainly on their sense of smell, and when they are relocated from their nest or familiar evironment, they emmediately try to smell their way back to mom. They do this by jerking their heads about, trying to get the scent. This is just how theyphysically go about it due to...

    Yellow stains!!!

    Vinegar works very well to remove urine stains in the fur. You can also use cornstarch. Peroxide and warm water can also help. :)

    Cage phobic

    Perhaps you could put some treats in his cage which will distract him from focusing on trying to get out.

    Constant Red/Rusty/Orange Urine?!

    Rusty colored urine is actually quite common in rabbits, and typically a healthy rabbit's urine should range anywhere between alight cloudy yellow to an orange color. Typically, the more protein in their diet the more rusty the coloration is. However, the fact that your rabbit's urine looks so...

    Out of control Teens

    If you absolutely feel that you must write to him (and I mainly support the idea of not giving him any attention), how about simply asking him how he feels things are going and how they are affecting him in camp? Ask him what tools he has learned that would better help him explore his options...

    weed-n-feed toxicity

    Personally, I wouldn't trust it. But that's because we've had a very terrible experience with chemical products and our rabbits. Long story short, we had hireda man from a pesticide companyto come spray for insects around our house. Their products were said to be "safe on animals." Despite that...

    Rabbit nail abnormality?

    Judging by the vague pictures, she may possibly have some broken toes. She may not seem to be in pain to you because rabbits are notorious for concealing any ailments. Check her toes to see if they are angled differently as well. However, it is some times possible fornailsto grow out at odd...

    Rabbit drooling and regurgitating after eating.

    I think you may want to get another opinion. You're vets don't seem willing to do what you're asking for, despite their lack of options for a diagnosis. In my personal opinion and ruling everything you've mentioned, I would think it has something to do with her throat, if not with her teeth. But...

    When I use to volunteer at the animal rescue, I saw alitter of kittens with a similar issue. Out of a litter of seven, all ofbut one (the onlyone without the paralyzed hind legs)passed away before four weeks of age. The one that survived now suffers from severe neurological damage. The vets...

    Mini Rex and Standard Rex

    Do your rabbits have pedigrees? If so than from their parentage you should be able to tell if they are of a certain breed from the paper work alone. However in general,a standard rex is quite a bit larger, in fact twice as large as a mini rex, and they are built slightly longer in proportion...

    Rabbit Scabby and losing fur

    It sounds exactly like Sarcoptic mange. Especially when you describe how the skin gives off a putrid smell. That's one of the main signs of this type of mange. Test results aren't always correct either. I would try to start treatment for it and see if that helps.

    bathing

    In this type of situation, I would suggest taking a warm wet cloth and some mild non scented soap to wipe his bottom clean and then thoroughly dry the area with a towel. Keep an eye on him regarding the diarrhea. It may very well be more serious than a stress related problem, especially at...
