So the kits are chive and healthy looking, but they still have funny poop that sticks to their butts, any advise to help them? should I give them daily pro bios? Or something new???? Thanks!

THANKS for your responses!!!! The kits are MUCH IMPROVED today <3 thank goodness, the probiotics must have helped them along with a complete change in the nest box material! We used hay from a bale we feed our horses but it has some weird weeds in it, my best guess to the cause of the problem is...

I was checking on my otherwise healthy and adorable litter of baby bunnies today (10 days old in the nest box) and noticed a little less than half of them have poop stuck on their butts and tails/ hind feet! It is runny and orange! This is my first litter and I really don't wanna loose them :( I...

Update: Althea's eye is looking much better with the eye drops and chamomile tea with honey every day <3 I'll look into those other drops, but we are hoping it goes away for good this time! <br /><br /> -- Sat Sep 06, 2014 4:43 pm -- <br /><br /> Hey Thanks for these suggestions! Where do you...

It is just one eye, and she has no other symptoms! The goo is white and sort of jelly and dries on the corner of her eye a little more yellow and hard. However the eye itself looks fine and she doesn't keep it shut or anything. My buck lives next to her and they interact through the wire - he...

Hello my Flemish doe Althea has been struggling with white discharge from one eye although she acts normal and "puts up with me" administering daily eye drops - I've been using Vetericyn ophthalmic gel, putting a blob in her eye and holding it open until she opens the third lid so that it gets...

Thank you so much everyone! I know a lot about rabbits but am a newbie with chickens lol :) I got a big bag of DE and lightly dusted the bunnies and wooden parts of there hutches/runs to be safe although there is no sign that the bad bugs are trying to spread. I treated the chickens with DE and...

Thank you! No I would not use anything toxic like "sevin" on the rabbit! Just the chickens. I do have DE to use on the rabbit if need be. I would move her but her big run is all attached to the ground and surrounding structures (and is like 15 feet by 10 feet) plus can't stress her out while...

Oh my if those mites could bite you they would certainly live on a rabbit - do you know what kind of mites they were? I have heard that red mites can transfer between birds and mammals - does anyone know specifically about "scaly leg mites" and "chicken lice"??! these are the bugs they have...

I AM FREAKING OUT - I got three new hens this week who seemed very healthy and well taken care of - but to my dismay while hanging out in the chicken run I noticed the new hens have both scaly leg mites AND chicken lice! EWW! Thankfully the new hens are not in the same run as our old hens but...

OK! I will try and get a better pose picture, I knew they weren't right haha and I'll post her measurements too, Thanks!

Great this is going to help me when I pick out a buck he needs a nice rump haha! Yeah she could be 15 pounds, I'm just guessing her weight - she is a huge rabbit that's for sure! :) And thank you, she is very sweet!

She is about 7 or 8 months in these pics, not sure how much she weighs maybe 13 pounds or so? I don't have a scale. And of course she opens her eyes!!! LOL she likes being petted and posed, although I am new to the breed so I can't really pose them yet...

Here is my jr white Flemish Giant doe, Althea! I am hoping to start a small hobby trio of breeding Flemish, starting with this girl. How does she look to you Flemish folk? Thanks!

Hello I am looking for a young or at least breed able tattooed and papered Flemish Buck! I am looking for a LIGHT GREY or a BLUE BUCK but would also be interested in a black, steel grey, or even white boy with blue/ grey on his pedigree! My big beautiful albino doe has blue black and both...

Thank you guys! I'm glad you think she is spoiled! I do want the best for her. Well we will continue the fence plank wall across the whole back length of the covered section (that back left corner is the one the wind and snow drifts come in) and make her a little elevated sitting place (I mean...

Hello! I am new to this site, I wanted to share my beautiful Flemish Giant doe Althea with you all and get some generic advise! Below my rabbit run is pictured. It is 4 x 4 x 15 feet and very solid. 8 ft of it is under a covered roof, where there is a 4x3 ft house on stilts where her food is...
