I got a call from someone yesterday needing to find a home for a litter of baby bunnies. I offered to go round and sex them for them and told them I would take them when I had room. I went after work last night. When I got there there were 4 males and 1 female, all still living with mum and the boys had there testicles already :evil: All have got ringworm, 1 has it particularly bad on his ear. They were fed on a terrible diet with not a scrap of hay in sight so I brought them back home with me and had to set up emergency accomodation for them.

I have 4 more rabbits and a guinea pig coming on Saturday and another pair of pigs coming on Sunday :shock:
 
The babies are so cute!

I've never seen Ringworm in buns before - looks completely different on horses. How do you treat it?
 
Ah, I would love to have one of the fluffy males... I absolutely adore white bunnies! When do you think they might be ready to be rehomed? You are a bit too far for us though (we are in London)...

No such thing as too far :lol: It might be a few weeks before they are ready. Got to clear up the ringworm first then book them in for the chop.

That stuff's magic! I get thrush on my stomach. Yes, I'm a freak. :lol:
 
And during that time, we might be able to sort something out! And I could also "organise" a female mate from my local rescue (run by a friend... GBH). Can you sort of put a reserve on one of the chaps? Do you think? Perhaps? :D :wink:

I would need to have him myxi vaccinated though as I had a myxi bunny in my house until two weeks ago. None of my other bunnies got it (they are myxi vacced), but as a precaution I will not take any bunnies in anymore without fully effective myxi vaccinations.

You could always have brother and sister :wink:

I use homeopathic vacc for myxi/vhd although if you would prefer conventional vacc I can sort that for you :D
 
Just a boy would be fine... I wouldn't be able to distinguish two white balls of fluff... :lol: I'll probably adopt a young girlie from GBH in a couple of weeks or so... (need to set up the double crate for them then).

Yes, mine were homeopathically vaccinated too for Myxi and VHD. But when I adopted Star and she developped myxi, I had them all vaccinated conventionally immediately to be double safe! And it's worked! Just to be on the safe side, I would prefer conventional vaccinations - at least for a good while longer until all traces of anything have gone in the house! Then I'll go back to homeopathic just for prevention.

I've always had a soft spot for white bunnies and I love lionheads. I always hoped that one might pop up somewhere, so when I saw these, I thought to better get in there quick! :wink:

Strange day... I also saw my absolute dreamdog today going into rescue (which is a black and white double of my lurcher Flash) and would absolutely love him... But the time is not right for another dog! So I'll just make do with a bunny for now! :lol:

Awwww :love: they would make a cute couple.
 
I already have one long haired lionhead called Magic. His coat is fab though and doesn't need any brushing other than a quick comb over every couple of weeks, if that.

I would however not want to take on another long haired bunny not knowing whether this new white one will need lots of grooming or not. I would be able to find the time for one fluffy time consuming bunster, but not for two... Sorry... (Might be an option though once I know whether this new chap needs lots of grooming or not).

Some of them are fluffier than others. Would you prefer a longer or shorter one?
 
Make it fluffy... it will probably be harder to find suitable homes for fluffy ones anyway due to the possible coat care needed. Magic was really fluffy as a baby, but then lost most of the really long hair over his back, but grew a really fluffy mane and skirt and now is quite a punk with his hairstyle! 8)

The one on the right on the first picture caught my attention particularly (I love his fluffy ears... :) - probably turns out to be one of the girls... :lol: ), but it doesn't matter that much! You choose!
