Ok Guys, so my gf and I are having an INCREDIBLE first bunny experience, though it's certainly been a slightly rocky road.
To start, there is my first post about snuffles... Genevieve has been on antibiotics for two weeks now (cultured at vet, Pastuerella and antibiotic checked to be effective) and though she seems to be getting better she still has some symptoms. That in it self warrants a separate post in health and worries me greatly...
Now I'm pretty sure she can't be a full Flemish Giant... We got our bunny from a breeder on Kijiji, went up and saw her bunnies first hand... There was nothing alarming and she seemed to have four breeds. Holland lops, Mini Rex, Flemish Giants, and Giant Chinchilla. We met Genevieve's parents, a HUGE fawn doe (we were told 22-25lbs) and a smaller but still huge black buck (17lbs).
I will try to post the pics of the dad and mom. The breeder seemed really nice, don't want to sound accusatory but am just confused as we were told this was a full Flemish Giant. She's 4 1/2 months and only 4.2lbs on my scale... Eats like a horse, just an incredible amount of hay and 1/4-1/2 a cup of young rabbit pellets and a handful of greens every day.
I'm trying to contact the breeder but haven't had a response since I told her about the snuffles... I think maybe she thought I though she was responsible, but I know that her bunnies weren't sick at her place and that Gen probably got it from the stress of moving.
She's affectionate and curious, licking us CONSTANTLY all over and always wanting to hang when she's not romping and binkying... We got the right bunny! However, I don't think she's going to be the 25lb monster we were told.
Any idea what kind of rabbit we might have here, and what size she might be?
