    Concerned about possible spread of disease.

    Following on from my other post about loosing a pasturella rabbit, I have now found that his housemate has also died without warning this morning :( I have made an emergency appointment for my remaining pair to have their RHD2 vaxes this afternoon (they already have the myxi/RHD1) but...

    What to do with a single bun with pasturella

    I took on a pair of rabbits a few months back who both had pasturella. Unfortunately one of them has died suddenly and now I am not sure what to do with the remaining rabbit. I like to keep all my rabbits in bonded pairs or groups but I don't want to risk passing on pasturella to a healthy...

    Found a growth on Gismo

    I noticed his face looked slightly odd and when I had a feel around I found there was a large growth under his jaw bone :( I can't belive I didn't notice it before but his face is really round and fluffy so it was fairly hidden. Its solid to feel and not moveable. He seems fine in all other...

    Runny eye and decisions about vets.

    My longest resident, Humpty Dumpty has had a slight discharge on and off for about 10 days now from one eye. I took him to the vets a few days back and he couldn't see any teeth problems, he tested the eye with some dye (not quite sure what for) and that was all-clear. He guessed maybe an...

    How much floor space for a giant?

    Can't decide on the best set up for Poppy (British Giant) and Tula (uknown, small/medium bunny size!) once they go outside! We have an 8 x 6 foot shed that they can have. How much additional run space should I add? I can't decide weather to add on a run or to have a separate one made, The...

    Shed access for giants?

    Is there a cat flap big enough?? What do other people use to allow outdoor access for big buns from their sheds? I'd also be interested in seeing doors and how people secure them so that you're not just opening the shed door and allowing the rabbits out.
