Fimbit
Young Bun
I was wondering if people had any experience with this and what the symptoms can include.
The reason being is I am starting to wonder if one of my bunnies needs to go for a test. He drinks a lot more then any bunny I've had before, and as a result wee's a lot more, sometimes getting water infections. This is my main reason for being concerned
However he also has....
A sticky eye that has been tested and returned back as normal, however this is sometimes really hard to keep under control. He then has a cyst under his chin, which we get drained every so often when he becomes uncomfortable. I know these arn't common symptoms in other species, however diabetes in a bunny is not easy to detect and due to a bunnies diet they have generally high glucose levels and due to stress making them higher it seems like there is little to be found on the internet about it as from what I gather it's rather un-heard of, though I do know of a confirmed Diabetic degu, so i wouldn't say it was impossible.
Anyway I'm just curious if anyone else may have any experience I could draw on.
