Alpha Buck
Today we went to see a bun that was being advertised as ' free to good home ' . I spoke to the lady by phone and she said ...... ' we're getting rid of her because she doesn't like my other rabbits ' :evil::evil: Her words exactly. She changed her story slightly during the next phone call and when we got there today the story had changed again 
. She has a dwarf lop buck outside and a 12 week old baby dwarf lop doe inside and she informed me that she wants to breed them :evil::evil:
Anyways, the doe we had come for was apparantly living with someone else first who kept her in a tiny hutch and never let her out and fed her **** food. So this couple take her in and now they want rid of her. I asked both of them if they really wanted to part with her and suggested spaying and neutering as solutions to the hormonal issues ( as well as the health benefits ). They just looked uncomfortable and couldn't wait to get her out the door. They didn't ask one single question about how I was going to be caring for her and what experience did I have of buns. They wanted her gone
It does sound as if they had her first and the other 2 afterwards and now they've decided to breed, so the rabbit has to go. That was my impression anyway. She was in a 3 ft hutch which had straw but no hay and a bowl of Wagg rabbit food Her nails were so long she could've grown carrots underneath then and she is extremely overweight I got her home and sat on kitchen floor with her to give her a more indepth check over. She sat very patiently whilst I clipped her nails, cleaned around her genital area, looked in her ears and checked her teeth. After all that pulling around she still sat next to me for a cuddle She's going to vet next week for vaccinating and once she has lost a few pounds she can be spayed.
