I'd love to enter! Good luck to everyone.

Personally, I buy timothy and orchard from the local feed store, but here are a list of online retailers you can buy hay in bulk from: http://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Hay#Online_in_Bulk

Thanks for the pictures! Yeah, I don't think my black bun is quite that glossy. :P But it's as you say, maybe the mix part dulls the coat. :)

Purely looking at the two listed, I would go with Burgess Excel due to the higher fiber and lower protein. Dana Krempels, a renowned rabbit researcher, recommends the following: * at least 22% crude fiber * no more than approximately 14% protein * about 1% fat * about 1.0% calcium...

Seconding fuzz16. You should keep them separate until both are fixed. Bonds will easily break when one rabbit reach sexual maturity. Additionally, your male can also impregnate the female if they aren't fixed and kept together. Then you'll have to deal with a litter on your hands. Females...

I compiled them from other lists I found online. Sources should be listed on the bottom. I basically went through all of them and just added them into one ginormous list. If you have experience they're safe, I'll take them off. :P Thanks for the info!

$400 imo is quite expensive for a rabbit spay. Typically, low cost is from $40-$200, but some vets will go $300+ if you don't have that many choices. Earliest that a rabbit is recommended to be spayed is 4-6months. IMO, the earlier the better because once their hormones kick in, you can end up...

MiniLopHop wrote: Sorry, but the image of a run by spray by a bun is quite the funny image. :P I've decided I'm probably going to only get adult fixed pets from local shelters or rescues whether it be cat, dog, or rabbit since I don't want to deal with spaying/neutering them myself and...

For the record, I've compiled a list of known toxic plants here. http://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Toxic_Plants

Rabbits don't actually need bedding, just a soft surface that isn't wire or their litter box (if you use one) to lie on and nap. You can use hay or straw if you want, both are safe, but not really needed.

I found this article with a quick search: http://www.kmtr.com/news/local/story/Cottage-Grove-Rodeo-responds-to-criticism-of/kkJhe16iMUmVFOQOFURQaw.cspx It's appalling to hear their backwards logic.

Thanks, wendymac! @Samara: What's the difference between Satin and Havana rabbits? I did some cursory reading on the two breeds and Havanas have "satin" coats? Thanks for the confirmation on the Hotot and the guess for my black bunny. :)

hmmm.. reading up on the standards of Havanas and looking at the pictures, it sort of sounds like her. She's definitely rounder and stockier than my other bunny. I nicknamed her as my hefty bunny because it seems like so much effort for her to binky, lol. Her fur is very plush and dense and...

Hi all! I was curious if any of you kind folks would be able to take a guess at what breed mixes my two adopted buns could possibly be. If you'd like more information about them, let me know! Onto the pictures! Bun 1 He is ~1yr old from the shelter, male, found as a stray, ~4.6lbs...

edit:// I see, the Getting Started page didn't mention pellets in the Diet section. I just added that in. Hmmm, where do you see that pellets are not mentioned exactly? I know on the diet page we have a section devoted to good pellets. http://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Diet#Pellets Also, for the...

The scent glands are under the tail. http://brighteyessanctuary.org/educ/rabbit-info-scent-glands.html After I first adopted my first bun, I slowly handpulled out his mats using my fingers when I fed him his vegetables every night. Slow but steadily all of them came out. He does not like...
