My mini Rex has a small perfectly circular hard bump on the external side of his left ear. Based on what's I can tell it looks like a cyst. It doesn't seem to bother him at all. I will be calling his vet of course, but just curious if anyone else has dealt with this and what the treatment was...

Curious why both my rabbits will poop just outside their litter boxes? I mean literally right beside them? They are not bonded. They are free roam. One lives upstairs and one downstairs. Their boxes are not near one another. Every day I am picking up poops and throwing them a couple inches into...

My hamster is named Daisy Mae! 😁 she's a beautiful bun. Trust me, I thought our rabbit needed a friend and so we adopted another after 2 days of testing them together at the bunny rescue. That all went to crap the minute we got home. Almost a year later and they tolerate each other at best. We...

I have two bunnies, boy 1 yr and girl 3 yr, both fixed. While they tolerate each other, we have not been able to successfully bond them to a point where they can be together without being in separate pens side by side, or divided by a gate. They have lived this way for 6 months now. So they are...

Are you feeding him any greens??? Dark leafy greens? Two reasons I find rabbits have small poops...1) stress. If there's been anything in their daily routine that has changed it stresses them out resulting in little dry poops. 2) they're constipated/dehydrated. More greens and more water. 2 lbs...

I have been toying with the idea of getting a cat or dog bed for my New Zealand white bunny. She doesn't really care for her hiding cube or her rabbit hug mat (the one that has the rolls on either side that mimic laying with another rabbit). She's a big girl and she likes to stretch out. Even...

Interesting! Since our male would undoubtedly try to initiate a fight right away, would i put them both back in their pens, or just him? Even in a bathtub he will try to attack her.

Hi all. Well' it's been six weeks and zero improvement in getting my rabbits to bond. To explain we have an 8 month old mini rex male, and a 3 year old new Zealand white girl we got 6 weeks ago. Both fixed of course. Our male is just not having it. The girl is a love and even after being nipped...

I have been going through the exact same scenario. My boy was so mad when i brought home our new bunny. He got depressed then insecure and wanted constantly to be picked up and loved. They live side by side in our laundry room now with a gate between them. Everyday we swap them between the two...

I noticed tonight that my mini rex poops are much smaller than usual. I just started taking him and our new adopted bunny for walks in their stroller as a means of a little stress bonding since the bonding has been a bit rocky. I read that stress can cause smaller poops. Thinking i should just...

Bunny update. Unfortunately not much to report. I have been keeping my bunnies side by side but separated, and I swap them between the two areas daily. They have been better around each other in this environment. They both look like they're desperate to get out this more confined arrangement...

Thank you so much for this information! Makes sense. Do you think using the same home base area we used for our 1st bun will create territorial issues? If we clean it and rearrange the furniture? We've also been using this room for individual roaming sessions daily. t's just the best space for...

Hi all. I've recently started the process of bonding. Boy/girl both fixed. We tried a 24/7 quicker bond approach and it failed. We are now doing a more slow introduction process and its going much better. Currently our buns are living in our laundry room separated by gate barriers. They can see...

Ugh you guys. So I have been trying to bond my rabbit with another we adopted. Things were very promising. They were sharing the same space. Then they had a fight. We separated them via cage barrier because they kept trying to go back at it. After they cooled off things were promising and they...

Thank you both. I think things went so well because my little guy was in unfamiliar territory. And yes i think the more our new girl is here the more he will get used to it. And yes were taking it slow.

Hi everyone. So we adopted a new bunny yesterday...yay! She's a beautiful New Zealand white that was rescued from a lab. She still equates being picked up with bad things so that will be a work in progress, but she loves pets and shes a very sweet girl. Our existing bunny is a male mini rex. I...

Can i ask which one of Sherwood brand you feed them? There's the basic timothy hay pellets and a premium hay pellet. Wondering which one is better? My bun eats hay but never a lot. Hes always more interested in his grass mats more than his hay so im wondering if the premium pelle would be optimal?

Very insightful. Thanks. Doesidoe is a cute name btw. 😊

Great ideas thank you

Hey everyone. My 6 mo. old bunny LOVES kale. He doesn't want to eat anything but kale. Any variety of kale. So, knowing that kale is high in calcium, anyone have some good alternative greens? I know kale is a topic of constant debate. I've tried romaine, he won't touch it. I've tried red...
