Hi everyone! My rabbit was sleeping very weirdly look at his leg. What do you think is wrong with him? also how many cuts do they make when doing a neuter?

I’m no expert but the way peanut is sleeping seems to me just like a strange, but fine sleeping position 😉 they only make 2 incisions in each testicle

Oh cause I noticed right after we took him home he had a scab right next to his testicle. It was really strange, it wasn’t there before hand

That is fine as long as he doesn’t pick or bite at it to make the site inflamed or infected
 
I think your bun is just being him quite honestly, and this for him being a comfy way to lay 🤷‍♀️

If I understand correctly, he recently had a neuter? This will cause him to be uncomfortable for a few days.
So if that is the case, make sure he has pain meds from the vet first off. If they didn't give you anything then I'd call them and ask.
Make sure he is eating, drinking, pooping properly and is in a confined space.
He can't be jumping or running around or he'll pull the stitches so he needs to be in a quarentine space to recuperate from the surgery. The stitches are disolveable.
This needs to be done for 10- 12 days after surgery (quarentine the bun).
Keep checking that he hasn't pulled at the stitches and has an open to the incision area during the first week.
 
its been 10 days since his neuter, he did get pain meds only for 3 days
 
Good stuff 👍 that's the length the vets give meds for.
I wouldn't be too worried about his sleeping positions then, unless there is other stuff like he is always laying down and not up and moving around. His poops are mushy or very small.

Check out my other thread because I saw that a scab fell off near his testicle but not on it. I have pictures over ther
