Hey Jbun, I'll upload a few pics tomorrow. Gotta get them uploaded. But first... Is pus at all okay? I looked at Brie's incision today and what I thought was a tiny bit of pus definitely is pus. There is some also dried along the line of her incision. Nothing is swollen or red. The line of her...

I sure hope Brie will calm down a bit with the crazy. How long was it after the spay before all the hormones left her system? I just sat down with Brie for a bit and she tried to dig my pants. And she definitely did not let me even /try/ to pick her up. Is the digging at me part of hormonal...

Yes please, Jbun! I'll upload photos of her before her juvenile molt too. Any reason to share pics of the buns, right? ;)

Oh yeah. The boyfriend was ripped off for sure. Super unethical breeder, right? I must confess too, that I rigged up a temporary pen with some spare NIC grids and let Brie out for a little yesterday, and as I type she is hanging out in one corner of it. She was starting to gnaw on the wires...

Ah... see, Brie is supposed to be a Lionhead. A $200 Lionhead. Yep. Good intentions by the boyfriend. I thought maybe she was a single mane, but the vet took one look at her and called her a Lionhead mix. She also used to be nice and white from the mane down. I guess that was her juvenile...

Cute cute cute! I love seeing the baby bunnies posted here. Please keep us updated with new pics as they grow!

:D I can see it now. Fur all over the place, right? That'll be Brie! We're gonna work on handling her again after she gets all better. I'm determined! :)

Today marks a week since the spay! Yay! I was told she would be healed in 10 days. 3 more days to go? Man... it's starting to get harder. She's climbing the sides of her cage with her front paws now. For almost a whole week, she was such a good girl. No digging and sending the litter...

TADAH! I know, she did not look happy. But she always looks like that. Eating last night. :yahoo: Right now. Poor baby. She hasn't looked this comfortable in a while though. Thanks again for all the kind words! I'm not sure how I'll be able to check her incision, since she's already...

Y'all are awesome. I just dropped off Brie, and tell you what- it was such a huge load off my shoulders. I've been stressing about this for months. Even before she was old enough to be spayed! I went with the Peninsula Humane Society and I feel like I made the right choice. The vet was able to...

Brie's spay is tomorrow. I cancelled her last appointment because I was totally not ready. The lady I made the appointment with told me I could take her in for a checkup with a vet before bringing her in for her spay at the local humane society if it made me feel better, so I did. The vet...

Well, Karen Pryor has a book out called "Clicking with your Rabbit". She talks about using clicker training to get a bunny comfortable with being held, but she doesn't go into any kind of detail about /how/. I've gotten Brie to the point where I can lift her an inch or two off the ground...

Just curious how it was done. Everyone wants me to just grab Brie until she gets used to being held, but she responds very well to baby steps with "clicking". Quotes cause I can't hold a clicker and try to hold her at the same time so I usually click with my tongue. She fights really hard when...

Ah, as far as becoming less affectionate towards me goes, I'm not worried. Brie doesn't care about me at all. She is very willful and it has really disappointed me since she's the first and only rabbit I've had so far. She'll let me pet her, and she even flops down for me to do so, but all of...

Thanks for the links!

There's a myth that with dogs, two are better than one, cause they'll keep each other company. Truth is, two means more work and more destruction. I'm wondering if it's the same with buns, or if two really means they'll keep each other company so Brie will stop looking for things to destroy...

They are so adorable! I second Tucker's question. How do you tell if they're going to have lop ears?

I am probably one of the least experienced people on this forum, as I've only had Brie for almost 6 months, but I've found that limiting her space makes her "freedom" more valuable. She has live in a store bought cage, an upgraded version where to attached a 2x2x2 NIC to the cage, a 2x2x2 NIC...

More specifically, the willow wreaths with leaves still attached and not completely dried out. I only know of Binky Bunny and Busy Bunny, and both stores are sold out of a LOT of items. What's going on? Brie needs more toys NOW. I just had to patch up the carpet. We live in the city so...

Thanks for the info! I suppose Brie picks up on my hormones cause during that time she goes nuts with the figure eights at our feet and nipping. After that she settles back to her own self. She's also a lot easier to pick up during that time. Hehe. Another reason I asked is cause someone...
