Yay! Thats good news, a fat baby is a happy baby!

Fortunately, looks like they are clean and the wounds look like they are scabbed. As long as the wounds don't get infected and she is not continuing the behavior of obsessive grooming, she should be fine with them now. But,if she is still chewing on them you can keep the nest box out of the...

Sounds like she may be over grooming. We're they just born? Remove the babies from the cage until we can figure out the issue.

Just remembered this is coming up next month in Casa Grande. Anyone planning on going? Are you showing or just viewing? Will you have any rabbits available? (I always have something I'm looking for). My work schedule has prevented me from attending any rabbit shows since most are to far (wish...

That is fair, since they are super close, I wouldn't have to worry about traveling far just to find out they aren't worth it. I'm planning on reaching out to inquire of getting a buck anyways (plus he has some cages I want to look at). People in my area used to be super weird about rabbits not...

Right? Its such a toss up! Lol, this is the problem we get for wanting to raise good looking rabbits!

Alright, I messaged the seller a bit. Turns out they are pure, but not pedigreed. He says they are just commercial stock. So, that's a bummer. I could get them and work towards bringing them to standard and building a pedigree, but I don't think I'm up for that right now, I think I would prefer...

Thanks for all of the info and sharing your personal experience. Really also appreciate the input about the colors, the steel tipped one is what made me go "I need help from people on rabbittalk, i know nothing of this breed" lol! I love the look of the red, but definitely is a headache there. I...

I have gotten into raising meat rabbits. Right now I have meat mutts (I think I was told they are new zealand, rex, Californian, maybe). So, it's a great start in the world of meat rabbits. The thing is, I want the breeds of rabbits I keep in the barn to be able to produce rabbits I can have...

Decided to give a little update. It's been 11 days since the lop had the swelling and 10 days since she passed. Saturday will be the 2 week mark of the recommended quarantine time. So far none of the other rabbits have shown any signs. The rabbit in the cage above the passed rabbit and the...

No, I have never seen any mice or rats in my rabbit barn. Its a sealed insulated building. I do have cats that live in there, but I've never seen fleas on them.

Fortunately, I don't have fleas, i have flys though, they come and go. Also, their cages are right next to eachother and while doing feeding and watering its very easy for cross contamination to happen. As I only use caution with sanitizing my hands between the main rabbits and any in the...

Same here, I hope her death will be the end of whatever is going on. I'm sorry to hear you went through such a loss... I really worry this may be my outcome... I've been reading various reports about myxomatosis and generally it take 2 weeks, but apparently there is a California strain that...

So, sad update.... she made it through the night. But died this morning... I checked her teeth, everything looked totally normal there. The ears had no swelling or even signs of infection. The genitals looked normal. I didn't feel any other swelling anywhere either. I'm going to put my whole...

Myxo is my worry, because the first condition that come up when you Google "rabbit with swollen lips" is that.. I wasn't able to quarantine her lastnight, since that room i use for that was occupied by another rabbit, who of which is healthy and doesn't need to be there, and i didn't have one of...

As I was making my rounds this evening, feeding and watering. I noticed that one of my english lop's lips are completely swollen and she has some milky eye discharge. She seems lethargic and has no interest in eating or drinking. Has anyone else experienced this? What are the chances it's some...

Yeah, they aren't everyone's cup of tea, but that's the beauty of the wide variety of rabbit breeds. This is my first time producing otter in my own litter, I'm in love with them 😍. I'm really consiering on keeping the nice looking otter doe with the split ear

And here's the otters.

Baby picture update. They turn 8 weeks this weekend! They are growing beautifully! (This post has the 3 blues, the next will have the 3 otters)

I know! I don't think I will ever get tired of those big ears!
