This was about a 12 week old Mini Lop jr buck. Now, it surprised me that he had a bad temperament for a buck. Especially since he was so sweet as a baby, always wanting attention and greeting me at the front of the cage.
Around the 8 week mark, he started nippig the other jrs in the pet growout cage and I figured it was him just maturing but I wanted him a little bit bigger before I processed him. Then he started nipping me and scrambling out of my arms when ever I'd take him out.
Today I finally got around to processing and I was very surprised to find what looks like tumors on some organs. He was also bloated and there shouldn't be a reason since he's only been fed his regular pellet diet and all my rabbits are on a 15% protein diet and do great.
Ok to eat?
I'm also wondering if his temperament was linked to what was going on in the inside.
