Hi everyone i am new here and wondering if anyone can help me with some concerns i have. I have 2 13 week old French Lop bucks called Xander and Bailey. Bailey has always been smaller than Xander since i got him. 2 days ago i noticed a wound on his ear so took him straight to the vet. The vet said this was excema caused either by a wound or trauma and i have been given some gel to apply. I am always watching for any aggression too but never seen anything so far.
However, the vet was concerned that Bailey is underweight, he has a prominent spine, and she also said his teeth are stained yellow. At the time she asked if Bailey is half the size of Xander and at the time i said no, but since being home and weighing both, Bailey is just half the weight of Xander.
Baileys behaviour has never changed since the day i got him, poos are normal and just as playful but not as bosterous as his brother. I am really worried that something is really wrong with him. I have started to introduce veg on the vets advice, the breeder i got him from said he should not have veg till at least 4-5 months. Xander ate his instantly but Bailey just wasnt interested.
Sorry that was so long but i wanted to give as much info as possible. They both eat Wagg Bunny Brunch but have now started to wean them slowly onto Burgess Excel. They have unlimited hay and water and lots of toys.
If anyone could offer any advice i would greatly appreciate it.
Many thanks
