    Reasons not to feed hay??

    Surely yellow feet comes from standing in their own pee, not the hay!! All the arguments are bs or ridiculous. Hay is messy? Bunnies are messy! If that's an issue for you then don't have pets 🤣 smh honestly

    Do male hormones go through cycles?

    Aww!! They both have harlequin colouring, although Maple's is a lot more obvious - Ash has ginger patches on the top of his feet and in random patches across his back and tummy! Neither of them have the split-face colouring of classic harlequins and they both have agouti fur so I'd be intrigued...

    Do male hormones go through cycles?

    Thanks for your reply, in terms of 'spring fever', do you know what it is that sets them off? My buns live indoors at the top of a block of flats and I rarely open the windows - I know there will still be some airflow though so I'm wondering if pollen is a factor? The operation was attempted at...

    Do male hormones go through cycles?

    This might be a really daft question, but I'm wondering if there are times when intact males are calmer and times when they're hornier? Do they have cycles? My male Ash is generally quite calm and laid-back but I definitely notice he has times when he's more hormonal. Today for instance, he's...

    Train not to bite?

    Ah that's possible, I hadn't thought about the effect of touching my hair with my hand etc. I don't drive so there's no issue there, but maybe I'll have to start washing my hair after work! She doesn't bite often, but it seems like she just does it a lot for a few days every now and then. She's...

    Train not to bite?

    She confuses me! She's more excited than ever about me getting home after work though! She shakes her head around and binkys happily because she knows she's about to get food and pets 🤣

    Train not to bite?

    Yeah, it's weird. I wonder if sometimes she doesn't realise she can escape? No, she jumps up of her own accord! I do use skin products, but I haven't used any new ones recently. I work as a dog groomer so it could be the smell of dogs, but I do have a shower as soon as I get home before I enter...

    Weird sleeping positions

    My two are lionhead X's I would say 🙈 they're rescue buns - their mum came into a rescue I volunteered at and she was pregnant. Their mum wasn't a lionhead - she was a pretty standard short-haired rabbit with chestnut brown agouti fur. She had the flecks of ginger and silvery grey which Ash and...

    Train not to bite?

    Okay, that's interesting then. Yes that's right, I have had them together a few times on my lap and that's gone well - he usually grooms her, but tonight she groomed him the whole time. I introduced them in the bathtub a few days ago which wasn't fun bc he sprayed wee everywhere and humped her...

    Train not to bite?

    Hi, my 5 month old female Maple has just started randomly sinking her teeth into me while she's on my lap? I managed to train her brother not to bite me by turning my back on him and it only took 3 goes. It's been 2 months and he's never bitten me since. With Maple, I've tried screeching when...

    Weird sleeping positions

    Does anyone else have a bunny who likes to sleep with their bum pressed against stuff? 😂 I don't know how weird it is but his sister doesn't do it 🤷🏼‍♀️ Anyway, take this as an opportunity to drop photos of your rabbit sleeping like a cute little weirdo 🥰

    Is this grunting?

    Good to know it's not just him! He's not doing it so much now, so I think maybe he's going through a less hormonal patch 😂 he doesn't do it at me, only his sister!

    Is this grunting?

    Thank you, I'm assuming that's what it is, I just wanted someone else's opinion too!

    Is this grunting?

    Hi, Ash has started making these noises. It seems to be when Maple is close to his pen. I've never noticed it before, and he had a reaction to anesthetic the day before where he stopped breathing for 5 minutes so I wondered if it could be a breathing issue? I just wanted some clarification from...

    Intact male and spayed female bonding?

    I wish he could have been neutered, but I can't justify it now. He's such a lovely little bun, yesterday was horrific 😢

    Intact male and spayed female bonding?

    Thank you, he seems back to normal today, just eating a little less than usual. Ash is very chilled out, but I know whenever they've had brief interactions (i.e. sitting on the sofa with Maple while Ash is free-roaming), he grooms her and then tries to mount her. They're both very interested in...
