Breed of my bunnies?

[LiRa92]

Can someone tell me the breed of my bunnies? and how to make their fur healthy.

This is Poe - 8 months old

This is Monday - 1 year old

Hmm.. poe kind of look like a dutch to me... What do you other RO members think?

Yep Poe is a Dutch! Not sure about breed for Monday, but her color is sable point.

Poe looks like a dutch although its really hard to tell what color he is in that picture.

Monday looks like a siamese mini satin. Has the same head and ear shape and color.

For their coats you can try calf manna, black oil sunflower seeds or whole oats. Anything that would contain EFA's(essential fatty acids) to help the skin and coat

I agree that Poe is a dutch. Not sure about Monday.

Poe actually has a long hair. I am quite worried about the way their coats are. I have no idea why they are having hair falls and as you guys can see from the picture, their coats are not as tidy as bunnies should be. Is there anything I can do to make them as bright as other bunnies? :?:expressionless

Dutch and Satin for sure!

They might just be going through a molt. Rabbits usually molt 4 times a year alternating a big molt and a smaller one. If you are feeding them well they'll probably look tidier soon.

I use a Kong brand Zoom Groom brush on my buns and it works very well. All buns look untidy at some point because of molting, etc. No worries. They're gorgeous!

Thank you for telling me that. I feel so much better now. My dad keep asking me what is wrong with my buns and now I have an answer to that question. Thanks a lot.

I also posted "For their coats you can try calf manna, black oil sunflower seeds or whole oats. Anything that would contain EFA's(essential fatty acids) to help the skin and coat"

Brushing helps also

Thanks! and how often should I give them this EFA's containing foods?

You can just put a small amount on top of their normal pellets. But don't give them all three, just pick one of those.

Thank you. If I were to choose giving them whole oats, is it okay to give them the whole oats that I bought from the groceries store?

 

[woahlookitsme]

Yes its okay

So I really don't want to be rude and I apologise if I'm hijacking someones board but I figured it would be a waste if I posted another topic for my rabbit.

This is my girl Cleo, I know she has dutch markings but her fur seems to be longer and fluffier than most dutches I have seen. Is she still a dutch? Or maybe a mix of something?

I see. Thanks for choosing this board anyway. But where's the picture?

Didn't the picture show up? I can see it on my computer :confused2:

 

[Hyatt101]

I can see the pic too. I think she's a dutch-- maybe a dutch mix? Gorgeous though, regardless of what breed she is!!
