I have a young buck born in June. He is a blue-eyed white Netherland Dwarf. I've heard they may be prone to seizures, but I'm not really sure what is going on. When he was born, he was the only surviving kit of a litter of 6. I found him in the corner sitting. The next day I fostered him to...

Ok, so I've heard no sneezing for a couple months now. Everybody seems just peachy....except for the little guy with the eye problem. I was speaking with the vet again tonight and she told me they do the nasal culture along with the blood test. She said they won't just do the nasal culture...

The vet said it was probably dust. I've only heard her sneeze when I gave her a handful of hay. It was a particularly dusty bale.

So, everyone seems fine right now. Haven't heard a sneeze since I bleached the cages and changed hay and food. Matting is still there on most rabbits, but has not gotten worse on any of them in at least a month. Babies are now 10 weeks old and showing no symptoms of anything at all (except the...

Ok, so...should I still get the blood test done?

I agree with the above answer. I feed my Nethies about 1/4 cup a day. And some hay. If you're going to get her spayed, they will shave her then if you can't get them off now.

Ok, so my husband is at the feed store now and they don't have goat dewormer. All they have is horse dewormer. He says it's good for 1200lb animal. How would I measure out something like that?

Thanks! The babies are almost 7 weeks old. I'll pick up some wormer Monday.

So, should I deworm them all?

Hi, thanks everyone for replying so quickly! There is only one rabbit with the soft poop. (She is 8) The 2 that have decreased appetite are young BEW ND. The one that had the snotty nose is also BEW ND. The food they were eating was very powdery, so I bought food from a different place, which...

I have a tiny rabbitry. I've only recently started breeding rabbits about 2 years ago. 2 weeks ago I had 10 rabbits. 5 Netherland Dwarfs, 2 Mini Rex, 3 mix breeds. The nethies are my breeding stock (1 buck, 4 does) Last year I had one of my mixes to the vet because he had tough, leathery skin...
