Update on the babies from my foster rabbit! Mum has rejected one baby who I now have to hand rear. I'm an exotics vet nurse, so he is in good hands, but this will be hard. Buns are notoriously difficult to hand rear unfortunately
What about it?
I found him kicked out of the nest, cold and skinny. He had lost weight from when I first weighed everyone and is underweight. He's only 3 days old poor chicken. He is warmer now and took a good feed where he tried to suckle and take it willingly, so that's a good sign. It tired him out though, so he's been sleeping a lot of the afternoon. Bless him, I will do what I can to help him through but there's a high chance he will pass away unfortunately.
Sweetest boy is suddenly lunging at me how to fix it?
What about it?
Little boy Link on the left has been feeling very territorial lately and is now lunging at me and grunting whenever I touch the litter box. I was recently bunnysitting a friend's un-neutered male rabbit in a different room for 2 weeks, and I guess I was not careful enough with smells. Does anyone have advice on how to fix this?
I think Kit might have sore hocks and i’m not sure why
What about it?
I’ve noticed that when i trim Kit’s nails i see pink skin on the back of his foot area (like the heel area on a human). It doesn’t seem to be irritated, there just isn’t hair. I’m confused because none of my other rabbits have this, and they are housed on soft blankets and free roam on carpet. What could this be from? (i apologize for not having a picture, i don’t want to stress him out right now by picking him up).
