Hey All! I have two male rabbits, a New Zealand Red who's around 6lbs named Bunny and a Holland Lop who's around 3 lbs named Pickles. I've had Bunny since he was 2-3 months old. I've had him for 14 months now I. I've had Pickles since he was 2-3 months old also. I've had him for 4-5 months...

Thanks everyone! I appreciate the advise! I'll let them continue to live side by side and sniff each other through the bars (they seem to like doing that) and we'll try it again a month after his alteration. Thanks again!

Bunny is fixed and has been fixed for 6+ months now. Pickles isn't fixed yet though. They weren't even 100% sure that he's a he at his last vet visit. We originally thought he was a she by the way. But the vet was 95% sure it's a boy. Pickles just started going crazy a few days ago. He started...

Hi All, I'm trying to bond my one year told New Zealand Red (around six pounds) to my newly adopted two month old Holland Lop. For two weeks straight I put them together for 30-45 mins once a day in my foyer (which is tiled) or my bathtub. The results are always the same: the little guy is...

Hey All! I have a question about flooring. I did some searching on the forums but couldn't really find anything on this type of question. I have a spare bedroom (10x10) that I'm currently keeping my two rabbits in. I have an X-Pen set up with a sheet of spare vinyl as the flooring. My oldest...

Thanks! Just ordered some Bene-Bac. Ordered this one online since my local pet store doesn't carry it: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B002V8P2SO/?tag=skimlinks_replacement-20 How much would you recommend I give him in the beginning and when should I go to full doses? I'm assuming the bottle...

Thanks for the reply! I bought him this stuff I guess close to two weeks ago and started giving him 1 a day: http://www.oxbowanimalhealth.com/products/type/detail?object=8404 Would this count as a probiotic or would you recommend something else? I read online that a probiotic would be good...

Update on the cecals issue: I cut back his food to 1/4 cup of pellets in the morning and decided I can give him another 1/4 cup later on if he eats all of that. I'm still having the cecals issue though. He didn't have any this morning laying around but he's been snoozing for the past hour or...

I'm not sure what antibiotic he was on. The vet is putting him on a new one tomorrow though. I haven't noticed anything wrong with his teeth. The vet looked at him two weeks ago and didn't note anything to be concerned about. As far as the antibiotic affecting his GI, I don't think that's it...

Thanks everyone! I was wondering about cutting back the pellets. Right now he's probably getting right at a cup a day...maybe a little less. I'll give him 1/2 a cup tomorrow morning and see how he fast he eats that and if that helps any. I cleaned him up about five hours ago and no mess so far...

Hey All! I just purchased my second rabbit a few weeks ago, a cute little Holland Lop. His name is Pickles. :) Pickles is having a variety of strange issues, one being that he's super slow to eat his cecals and has been since day one which was over two weeks ago now. My other rabbit...

I've heard a thump a few times but this is different I think. When she does this her feet don't leave the ground at all. She vibrates her whole body. It lasts for a split second and she usually does it 3 or 4 times and then stops. Sometimes I'm in another room and I hear her cage rattling from...

I've noticed that a few times a day my bunny will do this funny vibrating thing in her cage. Basically she just forces her hind legs to vibrate a few times and it makes her cage shake a little bit. Not sure if that means anything or not. Also, we're not 100% sure if she's a girl but we are 99%...

I think I see what you mean. If you ever have a chance to post a picture that would be helpful though! :) And yes, maybe they are cousins! Haha! Another question for the both of you, why isn't clumping cat litter considered a good idea? I've used it since I got her close to two months ago. I...

Has anybody tried using screen wire (the kind you use on screened doors and windows) as a system for cleaning litter boxes? I saw this commercial for a cat litter sifter called sift and toss: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FBEwKxgU1wA and thought that this would be a great idea for my rabbit's...

Hello Everyone! I just bought a bunny this past weekend from a local breeder who sells them for meat. I'm trying to get some solid information on her breed and what size I can expect her to grow too and the like. The breeder told me she was born about eight weeks ago and that she's a New...
