My two Dutch Bunnies need a new home. Neutered male: black and white, 3 years old. Sweet and allows being held. Spayed female: brown and white, 2 years old, loves to be petted but not held. She is not aggressive. She came from a hoarder. They are strongly bonded and need to stay together. But...

I have a female Dutch bunny, spayed since one year. Her old air is loose but doesn't come off unless I pull it (gently!). Is this the result of her spay? I know that in longer haired female dogs this is the case. She looks terrible but is healthy with a good life.

I finally predator-proofed their outdoor run with wire. What is a good material to put over that? Bark, wood shavings or? I live in the rainy NW. (they also have a comfy hutch, connected to the run)

This is my plan: provide the two bunnies with an outdoor hutch that's connected to a large pen so I can move them around to eat grass and other goodies. How about this one? http://www.hayneedle.com/sale/prevuepetrabbithutch.cfm or any better recommendations? I am looking for one that is easy to...

Bunny, my shelter bunny, is friendly and tame, loves to be petted. But no way will she let me pick her up. What is the best way to teach them that? They live in a large enclosure and I don't want to have to chase or corner her to make things worse.

We have a bonded pair of Dutch Bunnies: male and female, both fixed. If I were to add another one would it be best to stick with the Dutch Bunnies or can I intro any other type, like a Flemish Giant? I always have liked those. Or do you guys have suggestions on possible matches, type wise. I am...

We have the choice of building a large (sheltered from rain)outdoor/indoor enclosure for our two bunnies, and possibly a few more rescues, in our to-be-built barn. Question: on the south or north side? Our summers only have a few really hot days that I can manage cooling them off. The rest of...

We are going to build a small barn with a good sized bunny section and an outdoor run. I thought it might be a good idea to "pave" the outdoor area with open celled concrete pavers; vegetation can grow through them but the bunnies can't dig themselves out. What do you guys think of this idea?

In a few months we will be starting on a building a barn so we will have room for more bunnies. Currently I have two bonded Dutch bunnies: neutered male and spayed female. Which is best to add: neutered male(s) or spayed female(s)? Or not even risk disrupting this happy couple's life? Our local...

I have two Dutch bunnies: neutered male and spayed female. Lately Miss Bunny mounts the male and pulls out bunches of his fur. He undergoes it patiently until she is done. Sometimes she makes mating movements along with it. They have bonded well. What is this?

We are going to make a new outdoor enclosure for our bunnies. How deep do they dig from under the fence? Do we need to pour concrete under the fence line and if so, how deep? Their indoor area will be completely enclosed, no digging possible. Any other ideas are welcome.

Has anyone experience introducing two adult neutered males to each other? I am exploring all my options. Will check the bunnies at the shelter tomorrow.

I heard that it is not good to leave females intact. How so if that is true? I have tried to find the lonely bunny a home but it is not working. There are way too many up for adoption. So I might have to get him a girl friend. He is neutered, so she doesn't have to be spayed. I had a female...

Sadly one of the Dutch Brothers was killed by a bob cat yesterday (:( *yes, I know, I know, can't change it now) and I have the lonely bro inside in a cage temporarily. I have had it with the outdoors for them. So now I have to figure out how to keep him comfy inside. I was thinking making...

Can bunnies have oats? How much per bunny and rolled or whole oats? They love their alfalfa pellets but I want to give them more of a variety of staple food.

We are going to build a barn :). Part of it will be reserved for our two adult neutered male Dutch bunnies. They will have an indoor area and a coop for going outside during the day. At night they will be locked inside. Question 1: What is the best indoor flooring that is easy to clean out and...

The boys get alfalfa based pellets and love them. They refuse to eat their Orchard Grass hay but seem to like alfalfa hay. Isn't that too much of a good thing? What is good hay to feed besides the alfalfa pellets?

Does anyone here have experience with free ranging bunnies under the watchful eye of a herding dog? Just wanting to know. I used to have a herding dog in the way past who would round up my bunny from the yard to go inside at night.

It is now for sure I'll be the permanent caretaker for my daughter's 2 bunnies in the Willamette valley in OR. Winters cool and wet and Summers warm and dry. I cannot have them in my home so they will be outside with enough human contract. They are sweet and sociable for the Dutch standards...

So, the two Dutch Brothers have been neutered since they were three months old. They are now 3 years old. One has taken up the habit of humping his brother and really makes the moves of mating. While he is at it, he pulls out hair from his bro's back end, who undergoes this submissively. He keep...
