Young Bun
I went out to feed my buns tonight and found my two beautiful babies dead. My hutch is a two level one, with a 4 x 2 hutch sitting on a 4 x 4 run, with a ramp. The bottom level is on concrete. The babies would have been 4 weeks old on Monday, but have been running up and down the ramp for well over a week now.
I could not believe my eyes to see these two little bundles on their sides on the concrete.
the only thing I can possibly think of, and believe me I have been racking my brains for hours, is that there is some ivy poking through into the run and maybe it has poisoned them, but I am sure mum and dad have eaten it before with no ill effect.
Mum and Dad are absolutely fine by the way (dad is in a separate hutch as I didn't want any more babies for a while).
PLEASE has anyone got any ideas on why they died???
