I'm at work, so I haven't seen it yet, but I just got a call that our 3 y/o petfemale Hotot bit our new baby male Flemish Giant. It sounds like she stuck her snout through the cage & bit him just below & to the side ofhis nose & took a chunk, maybe the size of a pinky fingernail. The fur is missing and it is an open sore. It bled, but has stopped now, just a bright red open area.
I called several vets in the area who deal with rabbits & thegeneral concensus was to watch it, keep it clean, maybe with a warm washcloth, watch for infection,& don't put any ointment on it because he would ingest it.
What do you experts say? Any advice is very much appreciated.
I feel bad for the little guy. I think we'll move his cage to a room where the bully can't be near the cage.
Will his fur grow back?:expressionless
