Just want to stock up and also start preventative treatment. It does look like at least one of my guys has tape (could be wrong). Done a bit of research and am seeing some conflicting info. Would love to hear from knowledgeable bunny people. My guys are indoors for the most part but spend part...

Ok, so I just wanted to update on what I was doing. It was actually a little difficult to figure it out due to conflicting info; so anyone feel free to correct anything you see wrong. We are doing subq .5 ml of the antibiotic and 1 ml of the probiotic. Giving the shot has been more difficult...

Alright, I did a soak today and cleaned it out again. There was only a little bit of new puss. She's doing very well. Just has a bit of an attitude because I've not been letting her outside to play. I had to go get new pen g but I didn't go to the normal place. This is what I got and I just...

Epsom salt or will regular salt do? As well, is pen g sufficient or should I head to the vet for some prescribed antibiotics? I did end up cleaning (puss removal and rinsed the inside with a wound cleaner) it out but I imagine it might be a daily thing for the next several days. I have moved...

I apologize for the wait, I've been sick as a dog. So it is an abscess. Since I was feeling a bit better today, I decided to shave the area on her foot to get a better look. I had just barely started when I realized I needed to go pick up one of the kids from school, so I just took my doe with...

Yeah, it's swollen. The picture really doesn't do it justice. Should I shave the fur down around it to see better?

I'll be sure to get a pic up in the morning as it will be a two person job and I'm the only one awake right now. She can be a bit onerey when she doesn't want to do something -_-

I think I am dealing with a foot abscess in my pet doe. She is an indoor rabbit but I do take her outside quite frequently and she acts like a wild child out there. She really enjoys it out there; some days it's nearly impossible go bring her in and I get quite the work out myself. Today when...

I contacted the other breeder and he told me it's not a DQ. Still though, it bothers me. I've tried to move it but the little one squirms as I'm fairly certain it hurts. I didn't want to push my luck unless someone suggested I try to fix it myself. If that's the recommendation at this point...

I've had the occasional rescued hunting dog (including a black and tan coon hound - that thing would tree anything! ) and that pup looks almost exactly like one I rescued several years ago except a bit smaller. We were told it was mostly plott hound which is a very popular hunting dog in the NC...

Ok, so I just noticed one of my kits has a twisted toenail, right paw, far outer toenail. I think it's recent as I haven't noticed it before and I handle the kits daily. The toe itself looks a bit red but doesn't seem swollen and looks to be fine otherwise. Just the nail that is twisted. I'm...

I don't butcher my own rabbits (I only have 1 doe and 2 kits anyway) but I've been gutting and skinning for years. I first worked at an exotic sanctuary (lions, tigers, wolves, etc) and we would feed out everything from chicken, geese, deer, cows, goats and the occasional horse. I would just...

Thanks, I think I will :) My only problem is I'm trying to do too much at once right now, lol I've only just joined RT but I'm far more active on here than I am on the other two forums I'm on (Doberman and Sphynx forums). People on here are much more open minded even outside of livestock...

I can see why you are fond of them. I love the pattern and colors together. Sort of reminds me of dilute tortoiseshell in cats.

Oh, it's so awesome! I like the celtic designs. Did you draw it yourself? I'm just getting started but now I want business cards! I might be getting just a bit ahead of myself though.

Not sure if she was climbing or jumping but I've found my doe laying in the bathroom sink before, just chilling. I came in to the bathroom and couldn't really believe my eyes :shock: Didn't even know she was out; she's an escape artist

Thanks! They are growing like weeds! WhWRabbitry, what are those two colors on the left? I'm not very familiar with the colors and patterns in rabbits yet (hares are pretty boring in that comparison). They are very cute!

Thanks! The little red one is already a fave with the youngins here despite it not being showable. They are already begging me to let them keep it. Sadly she has already been claimed (or else I might be tempted too, lol) When they were first born they just looked different shades but it's clear...

Yep, Belgians :) Not sure if it's normal or not since I am new to this but they were a few days late. Totally adorable though! I think baby bunnies are cuter than kittens, and I'm a cat person :D

I've already posted these over in my original post but can't resist adding them here :) <br /><br /> __________ Wed Jan 14, 2015 9:52 pm __________ <br /><br /> Forgot to add that these guys were only 2 days old in those pics
