I have not posted in a long time, but I come sometimes and read. All has been well in my little rabbit world. The 5 babies grew up and went into the new hutch beginning of last winter. It turned out there are 3 males and 2 females in Lulu's litter. They are all in their own cage in a hutch that...

Zoup was getting the messy looking ears again. I even wonder if it is ear mites and not wax. It does not look like the pictures I have seen, but she is scratching and itching her fur. She has dandruff looking stuff and a lot of hair is coming out, but it is more like a cat or dog shedding, no...

They are 14 weeks old. They are now in their new hutch separated today for the first time. Lulu is back in her hutch and all seems well. After moving them, I have a dead rabbit picture to add. :lol: Very relaxed. Still trying to figure out names and if they are male or female. #1 male? #2...

The picture of them around in a circle, the rabbit in the back with her head up is Lulu. You can see how big they are now. I was wanting to weigh them and check to see if we can tell if they are male or female, but my husband is busy with the hutch. Almost done and maybe finished Monday.

I do not know how you people get your rabbits to sit and have their pictures taken. I am going to get a harness and they are going to look like wild horses rearing up. They will not sit still and today all they did was stuff their faces with alfalfa. There is one picture of one that looks like...

I tried to get pictures of their dewlaps. Weighed 2 of them. The one that was 5 pounds last week is now 6 pounds :o and the other weighed 5 pounds, so gained half a pound in a week. I think Lulu has about had it with them. She comes to the door more like she did before she had them and I think...

have been looking on here about ivermectin and reading on line. Danger? Good? Oral? On skin? The Diatomaceous Earth? The first picture is Aug. when when we caught her and then the next is Sept. I have an Oct. picture and the ear looks the same, but today there is a lot more and down at the ear...

Do all rabbits have a dewlap even the males have a smaller one? I think every rabbit I have has a dewlap. :shock: Zoup and Sunshine have big ones. Lulu has a smaller one. The 2 males I put pictures of what they are getting, but I noticed the 5 kits are getting them. Three you can see really...

Four of them weigh 4.5 pounds and 1 weighs 5 or a little more. Lulu is in the piles too. She is not overweight YET. I tried to get the other yellow one in the picture, but he/she is behind the other yellow one.

I cannot tell if they are overweight. I decided to cut back on their food. I am going to measure to be totally accurate starting tonight. In the morning I give them 1 tablespoon of oatmeal, put pellets in their bowl, which now is less, it was 1/2 cup with a little bit of BOSS. I then pick leaves...

The kits will be 8 weeks old Thursday. There is no sign that Lulu is done with them. I noticed her washing one of the kit's head today. She never looks upset at them. They sit on her when she is laying down, and they are always together sleeping. I open the door and have 6 rabbits wanting to be...

The rabbits have been okay so far because it has only been down to 28 or so for a low. Right now it is 27 and weather information says it feels like 19. To touch them they feel cold. Their ears are cold. I know they are not going to die at this temperature or anything, but tomorrow it is going...

They are 7 weeks old today. Look almost as big as Lulu. She is in the pile too.

We are going to have several days of cold and down to 18 one of the nights with snow starting pretty soon. I put a lot of hay in. They were all sleeping, so not happy with me waking them up.

I was washing the water bowls and bottles and thinking of where these rabbits came from. There was a bucket or something over there with rust, dirt and no telling what in it. The man that had these rabbits never washed it. He did not buy hay. There was straw in there, but how old it was I do not...

Vetericyn Ophthalmic Gel and Rabbit NutriDrops? I am still having problems with Snickers. He is better. It could be an allergy. We burn wood and so do several neighbors, but I do not smell it strong outside. My son gets allergies from it. It could be several things, but I was wondering if I...

I took their pictures today. They are so friendly and Lulu gets in for her picture and petting too.

I thought I read that the males have to be separated from the females by 8 weeks old, so my husband is building another hutch. The kits will be 6 weeks old Thursday and I do not see them being separated in their own cage in 2 weeks. They are still nursing and sleep in a pile and are babies...

If Snickers is allergic to something, is there something that can help like an over-the-counter medication for rabbits? His eyes look maybe better. I think a slight redness to the edges, a little tearing. No discharge from nose, but when I watch him when he is laying down, not asleep, but just...

This morning I noticed Snickers had an eye watering. It really looked more above and so I got a wet rag and wiped it and tried to see if a cut or something like that, but saw nothing. Tonight, I saw his other eye is watering a little. No color, just wet hair like he cried. He is acting his...
