I've tried this before but since a year has passed since we've had Phoenix in our home, I'd like to try this again. I really want to figure out what she possibly has in her and what her colouring would be called and her fur type. I've read the sticky in taking proper pictures for guessing breeds...

As some of you on this site may know, I had adopted Hippo back in December of 2012 to bond with my female Phoenix. They stressed each other out and now I need to find Hippo a foster or adoptive home since he is not happy here. If anyone would like to adopt or foster him please contact the Rabbit...

My bunnies, specifically Hippogryff, are driving me absolutely 100% insane!!! I've used anti-fatigue foam flooring mats since November and NEVER had any issues with it until now! It's like he just figured out "hey, I can chew these and destroy my home!! :)" I don't know what to do. I can't...

Is anyone on here a fan of the band Muse? To be honest, they're my favorite band and I think frontman Matthew Bellamy is just a musical prodigy, they're definitely different BUT I will say I'm not enjoying their new album. It's too mainstream for me, not enough creativity if you ask me. I...

Another obstacle of bonding of course. I noticed that when I pet Phoenix for a certain amount of time with hippo next to us he will lunge at the hand I pet her with. This is either due to the fact that he is being dominant with me or that her scent is just unfamiliar to him (they've been living...

I've done a lot of research on bonding, I must say, as prepared as I was prior to bringing my new guy home, it was completely different for me just because he was actually infront of me. (Sounds more complicated online :P) Anyways, so, I've introduced my two in small increments in the tub...

hippogryffs foster parents gave me a box that he had kept since he got there about 2 months ago and they said to keep it for 3 days or so no more. Well he seems to be really attached and territorial about his box. He is fine with me touching the rest of his cage but when I put my hand into...

What are some things I can do to make a barrier around their xpens when one of them has out of cage time to ensure there is no biting between the bars? I currently made mine out of bed sheets but I have a feeling i need something much more sturdy. Would I be able to zip tie cardboard...

Am I allowed to feed Phoenix some daikon aka Asian radish tomorrow... I forgot that I ran out of vegetables and I only have a few that I was unsure if they were bunny approved. Thanks all :)

Phoenix normally has orangey red urine... I notice it's usually when she's getting a lot of vitamins and minerals such as when I gave her vitamin drops in her water every morning or when I started giving her veggies every morning. I discontinued giving her the drops In wAter to see what...

Which bunny personalities attract? I am not allowed to bring Phoenix on a bunny date so I need to figure out what characteristics a bunny should have to most likely bond with her. I have heard that it is very difficult to bond 2 dominant bunny types. Is this also true for 2 submissive...

I have been reading that sometimes, rabbits will have an issue accepting first cut hay but will readily accept second cut hay. I've been trying to force Oxbow hays and varieties on Phoenix but she just doesn't take to any of it. What companies sell second cut hay? Would Kaytee be one of those...

Phoenix goes through her pellets fairly quickly I really want to order the Sherwood forest pellets so I can switch her over BUT I want to order the 19 lb bulk box so I don't have to panic about running out quickly. I keep her pellets in an airtight container if that helps. How long will these...

I've recently read Gone Girl, which I thought was fantastic by the way, and the hunger games series (I hope they didn't butcher the movie as I have not seen it yet)... I'm looking for a book to read today and would love some good titles thrown at me. I will pretty much read anything and I know...

Okay, so after writing with so many other writers on this forum, I propose we write a group story. Basically the rules are A) each person writes one paragraph to develop the story and character(s) and B) it must make sense (no mocking!) :) Let's really have some fun here! Once upon a time...

I have decided to start a new blog because my old blog is too heavy for me to deal with now, especially with Peter being in there and all the old conflicts and complications that had arisen. However, this is about Phoenix. Many of you likely know that the Phoenix is a bird described in Greek...

Okay, Just got a call from the vet. From what I know, he has now told me she is about 3 1/2 years of age and that the surgery went well... he also mentioned that she had cystic ovaries... does that mean she already has cancer. She hasn't been showing any symptoms except for the fact that the...

I'm currently lounging around with Phoenix and I just noticed she is walking around and eating her poop.... They do not look like cecotrophs, it is actually poop. I know she is probably hungry since I give her 1/4 cup pellets twice daily but her hayrack is full. What would her reasoning be for...

Phoenix is getting spayed next Friday! I'm SOOOO nervous! I was especially nervous after I got an email from the clinic that said not to give her anything after midnight the night before so I immediately called the clinic. Turns out, the vet said that no one in the clinic knows much about...

Hi all :) I've noticed that since switching and cutting down Phoenix's amount of pellets, she feels a little on the thin side. When I found her, she was very skinny and when I took her to the vet, he said that if you could feel their spine, that meant they were very thin. He also suggested...
