Looks like a Dutch mix. The back of the picture is fuzzy to me so I can’t see details in fur to determine full breed or mix breed. A guess at age can be done based on weight if your bun but will only determine if he is a junior or senior over or under 6months and it is only an estimate based on...

Pineapple has natural enzymes that will break down fur the rabbit that is swallowed. Add a little pineapple juice to her water since she likes pineapple this will encourage water intake and help with breaking down her intake of fur during molting. Anytime you see the poop strung together with...

Rabbits and social creatures and digging and chewing are normal rabbit behaviors. These signs don’t mean he needs a mate. I find in the fall a few of my rabbits burrow more in their cage so I add hay or shavings or shredded paper in the bottom of the cages so they can be active without being...

It really depends on the breed if it’s a good choice in your home. We have a schnoodle that is 19 lbs and some rabbits snuff her and follow her and others don’t have anything to do with her. I would not leave my rabbit out however if there isn’t a person home. Both dogs and wires would be a...

Our bun tore her ACL on Easter. Anyone else out there had this experience? If so what were the results?

We go through about 75 lbs a month plus hay etc. for our brood. We keep it in a plastic air tight contained that holds 25lbs at a time. Not sure off hand of the last mill date without looking. Today I'm going to head to the feed store and see what they have. The vet also gave us some...

Just for reference in case someone in the future experiences something similar our poor Freckles has an ear infection but we caught it early we think. His face is paralyzed and that is why his ear is drooping. He needs shots twice a day for a month and fingers crossed he will survive...

Off to the vet at 645. I really don't think it's ear mites. Doesn't seem to be an infection. No redness or crusty. I know it could be deep down where I can't see. I snap my fingers and the normal ear moves to the sound of the snap the bad ear does nothing. Any one have ideas on this? Still...

I am waiting to hear back form the vet and whether or not we will be taking him in this evening. His ear does not seem sore to touching and there seems to be no signs of ear mites inside or out. Just a lop ear. I've been checking on him once an hour and he is just sitting in front of his...

At the end it should read cage not age but I couldn't edit because it had been over 5 minutes. Sorry for any confusion.

Here's going on. About 2 weeks ago our bun( mini rex female age 8 ) died. Itseemed like she had a lump under her dewlap the last few weeks coupled with her age maybe cancer. she showed no signs of sickness appetite, demeanor the same.My son went out to feed at dinner and she was dead. All...

We have 14 rabbits. 5does and 9 bucks. Of course every rabbit has it's own personality and traits to their breed but overall I have found bucks to be easier to deal with. They aren't aggressive with us and don't bite while the females can be this way if not altered.

Two buns and 2 questions. We obtained a Holland lop today from a family that could not care for her any longer. She is in quarantine from our others. We noticed she is itching her left ear. I have looked her ears are clean, no bumps inside or out and no scaling or dandruff. She seems to...

I would have loved to post a picture to reference however I am not good at uploading that is why I tried to be descriptive. We don't breed so that's not going to be an issue. I don't think it will be a judging issue since she wasn't disqualified in her last judging. There were rabbits...

If you have the full support from your family and monetary means to provide perhaps adopt from a shelter or perhaps contact a local rescue to be a foster home.

We have a white purebred lion head. She was born in April this year. I have her pedigree for lineage and to refer to, to try to figure this out. I have an odd predicament. I don't know how to classify her. Her paperwork says REW but maybe BEW. Here's what going on the pupil is more REW the...

You're 14 and while you I'm sure think you are old enough to do many things you will definitely need support from your family to even think about rescuing. You can't save everyone and you have to be able to financially afford their daily care as well as medical care. While we rescue rabbits we...

As a first year rabbirty project you should be learning about showmanship ( as in how to flip your rabbit correctly) learning the parts of your rabbits, hind quarter, loin, dewlap ect. uses of rabbits and so on. Some projects you don't have your own individual book but you always have the...

Thanks for the schedule idea for the exercise. My son is responsible for the cleaning in summer and on school breaks but during the school year I clean them after he is on the bus. It is a lot of responsibility for someone his age and it can take him forever but I have learned to let him be so...

I read an article today in Domestic Rabbits referring to "weepy eye". You should call a vet it usually needs an ointment for about a week. It can causing fur matting, redness, or dermatitis around the orbit.
