I have a 4 week old kit from a litter of 5. The past couple of days I thought his eyes look slightly off somehow. The rim looks a bit off, not really red but definitely dark. Is this normal?
This morning I thought I noticed a very slight yellow green color around the kit’s nose, so I immediately thought it might be snuffles. I luckily haven’t seen that in my rabbits before, so I don’t have experience with it, only from what I’ve read online and on here.
I immediately checked all the other kits in the litter and they all seem perfectly healthy. The mom also seems to be in perfect health. I haven’t heard any sneezing from any of them, including the kit in question. Am I overreacting or could this be a very early sign of snuffles? Should I try to wean/separate the kit from the rest?
I haven’t introduced any new rabbits since I got them all in July and up until now no health problems. I was really considering keeping this kit as a breeder too. He’s the biggest of the litter and such a cute color. :/
