hi, i need advice please on a few things,
i have not been very lucky with my rabbits.
first there was bob and cookie , the were lovely bunnys . i had some shavings from our local joiners and to cut a long story short the shavings were toxic and killed both of them,
we then had 2 more bunnys for our children as they were devastated over the loss of bob and cookie, which helped them to move on, so we had rex-a dutch and silky - a rex, poor silky has died from a worm infestation this week, the poor thing had them when i bought her only 2 weeks ago. by the time we new what was making her so poorly it was too late to save her, so my poor daughter was devastated once more with the loss of her much loved bunny, so now we have a netherland dwarf called coco, to give my little girl something to love...
i am keeping rex- 13 wks and coco- 8 wks in the passage way of my house (in seperate hutches) so they are completly sheilded from any drafts or weather , i do not want to take any chances with these 2 at all. is it going to be bad for them if i put them into there 5 ft hutches during the day then bring them back indoors at night?? will the temperature fluctuation cause them any harm??
i am so worried now over everything i do because of all the things which have happened................ also rex who is a little man is scent marking everything in his path and is so smelly at the moment, is this just a smelly phase or is he going to be smelly all the time..
any advise greatfully recieved.
thanks
