I have a Polish buck who is now 6 months old and he has yet to shed his baby coat. It's still just as long and fluffy as it was when he was 3 months old. On the suggestion ofseveral breeders I put a couple of drops of ivermectin between his shoulder blades to try and trigger a moult. It's now been several weeks and all I can see is that the color on the coat has fadedand somewhat discolored, but no shedding.
I've never had a rabbit not shed his baby coat by this time, but this is my first experience with a Polish. Anyone else have suggestions on getting him to blow his baby coat, or should I just be patient? Our first rabbit show is in a little over a month and I'd planned to show him...:?
