The one you thought was chinchilla i'm pretty sure is a blue chinchilla and the other looks like a sooty fawn to me. EDIT: Actually could be a sable chinchilla but they usually look more chocolate than blue. It's a bit hard to tell from pictures.

For putting weight back on my rabbits I use 1/3 Cup oats 1 Tbsp Sunflower seeds a sprinkle of something else yummy (alternated every day) to keep them interested :D in addition to their normal food. I find this to be quite effective even with my fussiest eaters.

She looks rex to me, her size overall (excluding the big belly though :)) looks to big to be mini, and don't you just love those big ears? :D. She is also a Broken Opal if you would like to know her colouring! What a gorgeous little bun you have found :DI know I couldn't give her away!

I have had this situation before, When (eventually) my neighbours rang the cops to say I stole their rabbit (and to be honest anyone with a heart would have) I lied and told them Ifound him on my property and didn't know who he belonged to! Normally I don't like to lie but this poor little man...

Try this site, they have a pretty good description on how to sex a rabbit :D http://www.debmark.com/rabbits/sexing.htm

Wow! :shock:That is realy way over the top! I answered less questions than that when I adopted my dog!!!

To be honest all but 2 of my girls are "single" bunnys! I find my single bunnys are actually a lot more sociable than those with partners in crime :Dlol anyway just my opinion. Chantel

Just to butt in (and you may not be interested) but the BRC (British Rabbit Council) actually state Butterfly and Broken as 2 different patterns :D Technically in the UK (or here in Aus) he would be a Broken Sooty Fawn

:headsmackOk so naturally as soon as I say I can't find it ..... Here it is... Sahara as an adult. The lacing and smut down her ears and nose is quite visible as an adult!

clarzoo wrote: I couldn't find a pic of her but this is her sister Sahari as an adult: She doesn't have as much smut as Sahara did but she does have pronounced ear lacing and a small amount of smutting on her nose. I will keep looking for Sahara's pic :Dthough as she really was a dirty...

Lol, The pics aren't going anywhere :Dthey are all pics from my past (or present)adults/kits/juniors and I am a bit of a hoarder when it comes to my rabbit pics, I will also have some pics of solid choc (havana) babies soon :D

I have found a similar approach to yours very sucessful but i add a thin layer of kitty litter to the bottom of the pan and have the wire raised high enough that little mouths can't get to it :Dthis keeps the odour down better and cuts my bedding bill in half (which is a very good thing with the...

Yep, Shredded paper and straw is always the fave, among the rabbits,around here :Dsadly both are in very short supply here because of the drought(well not the paper but he straw), I simply can't afford to pay $14 for a bale of STRAW only to get home and find it's more than half mouldy :(!

Haha........ I bring the rex hoarde :biggrin2: (sorry couldn't help myself) Black Charlie Std Rex Cinnamon Dalmatian Rex "smutty" orange rex, ear lacing is prominent, smut on nose tip, ears, tail (very pronounced), she actully looks pretty ok in this pic but the smutting got worse as...

My aunt and I were given oral bactrim (uck since I can't even touch the stuff I'm sooo allergic) to treat an abcess (after surgery) and have since used it to treat septecemia (spelling? dunno) in another bunny, this bunny was so bad his tounge was turning blue and the gum black, I wanted to put...

Haha I went hunting and I found ..... Charlie - the black charlie std rex (I have to stop letting my lil sis near my rabbits at weaning she has no imagination), You can't see it very well in this pic but it looks like some one upended a pepper shaker on his forehead:D

lol im glad coz im not sure i've gotme anymore lol time to do some more reading i think :)

Both those are correct but a point they don't make clear, and thuscreating the myth,is that those types of rabbits have had centuries to make those changes to their body structure whereas our domestic rabbit has been carefully bred to conform to a standard and although their is always your...

Bi carb soda mixed into a paste and rubbed onto their feet works well. Although they have to let you touch their feet first :)lol last time i tried cleaning stained feet in prep for a show i ended up with gashes up both arms.
