    New Bunny Owners

    Hi all. We are buying two bonded Holland Lop sisters and I plan on building an outdoor hutch. It will stay under our sun porch, an open area about 5 ft high with good air flow, and hopefully something we can carry into the garage during extreme temperatures. We're keeping the bunnies outside...

    Rabbit Syphilis!?

    Hi, I'm Anna, and I've shown rabbits in 4H for 8 years now, but I've got a problem. Recently I decided to add a new breed of rabbit to my barn, Dwarf Hotots, and so far they've been nothing but trouble. My first dwarf hotot I bred to a doe someone else owned, and she had 3 babies. I took a doe...

    Safe Spot on Flea Treatment?

    I found out the hard way that the flea treatment I was using for my dogs wasn't working... :mad: I switched their spot on treatment and now they're all clear, but my poor little indoor bunny must've picked them up while the dogs still had them. What spot on treatment can I use for him? He's a...

    BEW Breeding

    My long term goal is to have a BEW project, so I'm trying to learn all I can now. I know that shaded/chocolate/lilac should never be breeded into a BEW line. But what if let's say, a black bunny with chocolate somewhere in it's history gets breeded in? Does that also cause the ruby cast or have...

    False pregnancy advice needed !

    My beautiful baby Bella is now fully matured and she’s had her first (what I think is) false-pregnancy. Was cleaning out the hutch today and noticed a huge wad of her fur in the corner of the ‘hidden room’ in the hutch. It’s the darkest area in the hutch and is sheltered from light and very...

    4 week old baby attacked by my other rabbit :(

    I brought home the most gorgeous 4-week old baby girl today. She was named Lola but after today's incident, I decided she needed more luck and named her Clover (after the four-leafed clover). She has one blue eye and one brown eye and is the smallest little thing :') Obviously, I was...

    Rescued Rabbits-2 Lops. Could use some advice.

    I just rescued 2 Holland Lop rabbits from someone who did NOT take care of them well. They lived in a crate that has probably never been cleaned. Boy is neutered. Girl has cataracts I think. I’ve been putting some eye wash in her eyes, and his too because they’re a bit gross. He has a scab in...

    Buying hay

    Hello! I've had my sweet boy, Ocean, for a year now of whom eats so much grass and the grass! Omg! It gets expensive! I currently buy him 10lbs bale online which lasts him 2 weeks but the chance that it's a good bale is such a gamble. Often I receive old, burnt, dry grass that would be cruel to...

    I'm worried about my bunny

    Right now one of my females has lost a lot of weight because she had a litter of kits. But I am not worried about that, I can feel a hard lump in her tummy. It is right under her ribs on the left side and I'm not sure if it is an organ or if it should be so hard. This might be dumb, but I am...

    Bunny won't stop biting

    We just got a new bunny, overall she is very sweet. But when we are giving her food or water she will attack you. I don't know what to do about this, I don't want to hurt her but I do want to teach her that it is ok for us to put our hands in her cage. When she is outside of her she is fine...

    Please give your opinion on bonded/bonding pair behavior!

    Hey there! In December last year, I adopted my first ever bunny; a 1 year old, Netherland dwarf mix, neutered male from a shelter. His name is Zed. I was originally going to keep him as a single bunny for a few years, as I'm studying online and therefore am home the majority of the day, every...
