    Pacific Northwest - two bonded bunnies for adoption (resolved)

    Holland Lop and New Zealand White Mix--very small--Olive (the Holland Lop) is about 3 lbs, and Simon, the NZ mix, is about 4 lbs. Very gentle, friendly. Litter trained; both are spayed and neutered. Must go to indoor home only and have free range time in a rabbit proof environment...

    bonded rabbits--fighting

    My bunnies Simon and Olive have been bonded since November of last year. This morning, my boyfriend witnessed Olive chasing Simon, nipping, mounting and tearing out chunks of fur while they were both in the X pen. Then I witnessed it. Simon didn't seem to fight back, but I removed Olive to a...

    introducing a dog to rabbit

    Hi! I have always been a 'dog person'. My 13.5 year old Westie, Piper, passed away three years ago, and I was devastated; I had had him since he was a puppy; I was in my early twenties when I bought him (at a pet store, unfortunately; I didn't know any better then) and he was with me through...

    littertrained... sort of

    I have two rabbits: Olive, a 10 month old Holland Lop spayed doe, and Simon, an 8-10 month old New Zealand mix neutered buck (he's only about four pounds, but looks like a New Zealand otherwise). I had Olive first, spayed her, waited a couple of months, and then adopted Simon from the local...

    Olive is sick

    Olive is my ten month old Holland lop eared bunny. She is spayed and since about the middle of November of 2011 has been bonded to a bunny named Simon that I adopted from the humane society. She eats about a tablespoon of pellets a day, timothy hay, and greens, with occasional treats (usually...

    firmware issue with D3100?

    According to Ken Rockwell's online review of the D3100: "A firmware defect causes the Auto ISO to rise to the same high ISO it would pick without flash. In other words, with Auto ISO and flash, you'll usually be shooting at ISO 3,200, or whatever you've set for the maximum Auto ISO ISO!"...

    for my next lens

    I really have to slam on the brakes for now with buying new lenses--especially since I'm still learning with the ones I already have (and oh boy, what a learning curve it is!). But, I still like to dream. I know lenses are quite individual to what you like to take pictures of and my specific...

    aperture 3

    As is my custom, I have been trying--with dismal results--to weasel my way out of learning Photoshop (yes, even Elements 8 for Mac). Towards said effort, I read a hot slurry full o' RAW vs JPEG debates online (almost more entertaining than your average sporting event--whew!), downloaded a 30 day...

    traveling

    I am going on a brief holiday to see my parents next week. I will be in Las Vegas only overnight, but plan to get out and see as much as I can for the few hours I'll be there. A couple of questions: is there anything in particular I should be aware of with bringing my digital camera a)...

    Nikon D3100

    I think I'm starting to understand the Aperture/Shutter Speed/ISO triangle, aka the Exposure triangle... in a rudimentary way. But I'm wondering how the components of "area mode" and "focus mode" and metering come in to play. Any thoughts? Thanks! [line]

    Posting about new lense

    Bought hese new lengs and exernal flash for camera: Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras and the SB 400. I'm trying to get the bunnies to "pop' in the relitively crappy light we have in Pac New West at this time. Any comments or suggstions? Want to be able to capture...

    lenses for D3100

    I know I'm getting ahead of myself, here, but is this lens compatible with the D3100 (Nikon)? Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras Thanks! [/b]

    need help with Nikon D3100

    So... I've been playing around with my Nikon D3100... using mostly "guide" mode and auto (I'm a total newbie to photography). A few things I've noticed that make me wonder what I'm doing wrong... I take a lot of indoor photos of my bunnies when I get home at night, under less-than-ideal...

    binkies, yawns and other 'rare' moments

    Is it just pure luck/timing? I've gotten some pictures of my bunnies sticking out their tongues, just by pure luck, but never any yawning or binkying. Guess I'll have to be more vigilant/quick on the draw.

    battery life on D3100

    I know I posted about this yesterday, but I really seemed to be having a problem with my battery light indicator. After about an hour of fussing around with settings (and using flash--probably a big drain) it went down to just one bar. I was able to take quite a few more pictures with it, but in...

    vibration reduction

    Just curious. On my new Nikon 3100, there's a tab switch on the lens labeled "VR". I assume this means "vibration reduction," but I'm unsure when to use it/why I would need to use it. I read something on a review saying it drains the battery power, but that could just be my interpretation of...

    Photoshop Elements 8 and iPhoto

    So... I've got a question about interfacing (if that's the right word) photoshop elements 8 and iphoto. I've changed the preferences in iPhoto so that when I "right click" on the photograph, it opens up the photo in Photoshop, and I can edit it to my heart's content, but then, after I save it...

    stray poos

    When Igot Olive, she was ten weeks old. Potty trained herself, literally (I did no work except provide the litterbox). Before and after her spay, she was immaculate with her litterbox until several weeks ago, when she started randomly dropping pellets outside her litterbox. This was before...

    looking for a new camera

    I need a better camera for bunny pictures. I know nothing about cameras except for "point and shoot", mind you, but the shutter frame takes too long on this camera and I never get the shots I quite want. Plus, lighting in my house is the pits, and it's dark out early now because it's winter here...

    picking up bunny for health checks and trims

    Both my bunnies are very, very sweet, but like most bunnies, hate to be held. How can I get them used to it, so maintenance checks and nail trims aren't such an exasperating pain?
