kit

Hi there! I test bred my Harlequin doe to my (pedigreed) Sable Point buck and got three adorable little black harlis-- one of which looks torted. However there are two other kits who's color has me stumped. I know the genetic* background of the father, but momma is a bit of a question mark. I...

One of my rabbits is currently caring for two kits, and today I noticed that one of them was looking kind of funky. I picked them up, and on first inspection, I noticed there was a yellowish crusty ball on the anus, and whitish discharge from the genitals. The whole thing looks very inflamed and...

Hi, I have a 17 day old litter of buns and notice one of them is dragging his back legs. I did the pinch test and has feeling in one leg for definite, but I don’t think the other. He’s eating and drinking fine and still has bladder control. Is there any possibility of him regaining feeling in...

Anyone have this issue before? I have a 4 day old kit, when I checked the nest the day of birth there was a scratch close to the eye and I was advised that it would heal on its own and it has, but now one eye is visibly swollen and I’m concerned. Anything I can do? Thank you

Hi, one of my does gave birth to a stillborn today and is 4 days early. Is there any reason for this? This is her second litter, first litter she had 3 healthy kits but this time around she is showing much more and definitely has more than 3, so wondering if it has to do with the litter size...

My lionhead had 3 babies 5 days ago. 2 where stillborn and one TINY baby survived. It was her first litter, so I waited two days for her milk to come in. When it didn't and he looked more like a rain then a bun, I got some goats milk and added a bit of honey. That got him active. I flipped her...

I would like everyone to meet Booboo. She's an 8 week old Cottontail we've been raising since she was 3 days old, eyes and ears still closed and just a touch of fur. Her story starts as many do, whereas my dogs found a rabbit's nest. None of the babies were visibly hurt so we put all five...

I have 3 kits that will be 4 weeks on the 19th. I've had alot of trouble with the runt off and on this whole time. She will eat really good for a few days to a week and then will not want to barely eat. I'm feeding them goats milk with KMR added. The other 2 are gaining weight regularly and...
