So I'm now convinced that when I got my bunnies they werent healthyl..I'm thinking wherever they were before here someone wasnt taking care of them properly...its been one thing after another after another and now its something new!
So this morning when I was giving Shadow his meds for the URI I noticed that on the side of his lip(? not sure if rabbits have lips ) there were 3 little crusty things that looked to be stuck in his fur...so I looked on the other side of his lip and he had a few over there as well...now I'm not sure what it is but I was doing research and found some things about vent disease...I checked his private area and everything there is normal and hes healing fine from his neuter on Thursday.. all his habits are normal eating drinking pooping etc..so I'm pretty sure that's not the issue. I took a warm washcloth (I had him tranced ) and wiped them off his face and they came off without problem..they were brownish in color and he didnt seem to be in any pain when I wiped them off. They were kinda stuck in with his fur but it wasnt to difficult to remove them... anyone have any ideas of what it could be??
I recently read a thread about a bunny who ate banana and got the same type of thing happening...he has a piece of banana maybe 3-4 tmes a week ( usually every other day ) sometimes its not a banana but an apple or rasin or some oats but last week it was just banana for treats ( he absolutley loves them ) since his fur on his face is longer could it be possible that it was just dried up banana crust on his face?? I plan on looking at it everyday to see if it returns or see if I see anything else going on there.
He has only mated one time and that was with Spirit. I checked her and she has nothing on her face or private area and looks normal in everyway ( except for the URI but shes taking meds as well )
