    Hello from Northwest Ontario

    Having the right size cage wire base, sturdy so it doesn't bounce with the rabbits weight helps prevent sore hocks. If the wire is coated it is even better to prevent sore hocks. 14 guage with largest hole measurements 1" by 1/2" or less, just wide enough for droppings of adult rabbits to drop...

    Wry Neck

    Sounds like you are doing everything you can. I would still put the coconut oil drops in her ears, they can be way down in the ear drum and the drops will suffacate them. Heavy ear wax may be an indication. It is a good thing to do once a month anyway to keep their ears clear.

    Wry Neck

    If you have ivermecton on hand you can put some on her to kill mites. Coconut oil, a few drops in her ears will suffocate mites every day for 2 days then evey other day for a week then every month to keep mite free. Ivermecton acts faster but it only lasts a few days. I'm glad you will be...

    I am so sorry, I know the heartbreak of trying so hard to help these wee babies and losing the fight. And then your hen, so very sorry. Sending prayers that things will get better soon and that you will be rewarded for all your love and kindness.

    Managing overfed rabbits

    I so agree with freelady, my only addition is to give your rabbits free choice on hay, it keeps their guts moving, keeps them from feeling starved and gives them something to do. Orchard Hay or Timothy is great. Also when mothers are nursing they along with the kits need free choice pellets...

    Doe died giving birth

    We just raised 15 from two litters. We had a doe break her back from a scare of something during the night and had another one who had 15, some died right away, but we had 12 from one litter and 8 from the mother who died. We changed each litter out every other day so they got some mothers milk...

    Ideas for winter water bowls?

    We use the bottles, have extras which we keep in the house and exchange bottles as needed for ice or refill. We check the rolling ball to make sure ones still ok are not sticking.
