Does anyone elses bun get sore hocks, and if so, is there anything that can be applied that might help clear it up.
I have read the RWA link:

The back of one of Robs thumper feet (I call the big back ones his thumpers, and the little front ones his prancers ) is quite red - it's not bleeding, but looks a bit red and sore. This happened once before and I took him to the vet, who advised that it didn't seem to bad, and to carry on with what I was doing - just bathing it each night with hot water, and some mild shampoo which is antibacterial). It did clear up but seemed to take a while.
He is mainly in the house, so the carpets maybe don't help this, but I can't really lift them all :roll: , and he is a bit of a big bunster, but I wouldn't call him obese :roll:
Does anyone use anything else which may help?
