Hello all and I hope someone whose bunny may have had this before can help me with this problem.
My bunny has some crust and matted fur around her mouth and I think it's because of the banana I gave her a couple weeks back. Has anyone had this problem before?
I'm hoping they will heal like last time, but I'm still worried because there's a crack in her lip where the crusts are. I have no idea what this is and I was hoping someone could tell me. As far as I know, my bunny is healthy other than this problem. She poops and pees as much as she's done all her life, her stool isn't smelly, they're not soft, she's not having any diarrhea. She's eating as much as she always has and always voraciously. The crusts doesn't seem to bother her unless you touch them, but I understand rabbits usually suffer silently to avoid looking weak to predators. But she's happy and running around. I know a vet can answer my question better, but I looked at the reviews of vets who look at rabbits in my area and they don't have very good reviews. I want an opinion from someone who genuinely loves bunnies, isn't in it for the money and trying to sell me drugs or surgery my bunny doesn't need, and has had this problem before.
If you can identify this problem, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thank you!
