Nah, she's a blue silver fox so it's very unlike the breed's usual temperament. She's so skittish that something spooked her and she just left the kits after birth. Didn't clean them, or cover them with hair. If I hadn't caught it when I had they'd be gone, they were cold and 2 didn't make it...

Thanks, actually now that you point that out it does look like a cut, and I can actually see a scratch path on the lower lid as well. The hopes with the horribly skittish doe was that she would chill since they often do, and she wasn't this bad prior, it was like someone flipped a crazy switch...

Mean animals are a no go on my farm in any form. I have one doe right now that's so skittish she's a nightmare to work with. She wasn't that way before but unless she calms back down she won't be staying. I don't show but I'm working toward ARBA standards, I have no intention of showing so an...

His other eye is perfect, clear and bright. No sneezing, no nasal discharge, no wet inner front arms, no poop issues, no acting off, good appetite happy and bright boy. It's just that one darn eye.

At the moment my rabbits are lacking physical traits that will make them better as meat producers, this male will make my herd better. The fact that he will pass on genes that improve the physical traits of what I'm breeding towards outweighs the possibility that he pass on kits predisposed to...

The breeder had 2 pitbulls come in and kill a bunch of her animals, and he was in a pen with other males. I think if he was scratched in the eye in that situation or peed on it's not something that's going to genetically effect my rabbits. He's calm, friendly, and smart enough to not tip his...

That's what I'm using at the moment but I'm using an animal eyewash from the vet that I already had along with it. I tried a different med first and it actually made it worse, it really irritated his eye so I waited a couple days and stared the terramycin 7 day treatment. But thanks for the...

I don't show, I just breed for meat, but I'm always trying to breed better. Better type and better personality.

I'm hopeful it's healing. I bought him for various reasons, but mostly because rabbits are not common in my area, and it's usually a 3 hour 1 way drive to get anything, and this boy was from lines outside my state/show stock, had all the body traits I needed to improve my herd, had a very good...

I think I'm seeing improvement! The last pic is today prior to eyewash and meds. The eye is becoming less cloudy and white, the line across the eye is fainter, and less icky goo in the eye. The lid is still irritated and swollen tho. 3-4 more days of treatment left.

I bought this guy with full disclosure of his eye issue. He was in a grow out cage with 5 or so boys all around 4-5 months, all peeing on each other as rowdy boy buns do. No one else in the cage or at the rabbitry had any eye, sinus, discharge issues. I saw everyone and had my hands on most of...
