Doesn't matter if it is baled or not, It all comes from a crop that is barn stored. I would imagine that is where the lice get in. In over 25 years of keeping rabbits and feeding bales I have never had lice. I personally would burn the bale you have, treat the animals and get another bale from a...

I wouldn't feed walnut, very very very bitter. I don't know if it is toxic. NOT SAFE include but not limited to= Rhododenron, laurel, yew, ivy, elder, box, holly, if it is evergreen or has shiny leaves DON'T feed it! That's a good rule of thumb;) SAFE include= hazel, field maple, hawthron...

Thanks guys! Little Pinks is fine now, though a tad hormonal but that is to be expected I guess. Lupin still looks slim and I still don't think she is in kit, but if nothing by Saturday then we are all clear:thumb: Fingers and paws all crossed:)

Not been on for a few days as things have gone to pot lately, small holding gone mad and now this.... As you may know I recently gave a forever home to 2 does, had been living in a group of 7 in too small accommodation with an entire buck.. I thought we had got away with it till Friday...

What a wonderful photo to treasure and help you through your grief:love: (((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))) to you all from us all x

Is it dust as in crumbled bits of hay or a fine spray of dust every time you pull hay? If it is a fine mist, please THROW IT AWAY!! If the farmer is saying the hay was baled damp then it is very likely your hay is mouldy. If this is the case, prolonged exposure to the spores (dust) is the cause...

Mine eat them just fine:wave:

Oh hun:cry: i know this is going to be of no consolation, but when I worked in the lab testing a sample of something might take ages longer than expected. 1st you have to culture you original sample on a specific media (multiple medias are used if testing the same sample for lots of things)...

:cry::cry::cry::cry: Binky free Seymore Carrots, you will be dearly missed:love:

Jane, I think you are correct and I think of Geoff every time I go to see Pinks and Lupin:love::love: I'm sorry guys but no photos yet as my camera is broken. Will hopefully be mended soon though. These 2 girlies are so sweet, naughty, so very very naughty but very sweet:lol: The first morning...

Oh no:cry::cry::cry::cry: So sorry for your loss:cry: Maybe she will meet up with Geoffrey Rabbit too :love: Binky free Big Oose you were a very well loved bunny:love::love:

I don't understand how banding is even possible on a rabbit???? The holes in the band have to be big enough to allow fitting to the pliers, that hole would be too big to retain a young rabbits testes. Added to that a rabbits 'sack' is more a pair of longways pocket rather than the pendulous...

Bran mash used to be all that was available for buns. Forage, spare veg, hay and bran mash. My childhood buns were reared on such fare and to be honest, they were in great nick and lived to ripe old ages.:thumb:

Does your vet use GA or do they use a local and castrate consciously like cattle?

Yup same here, It's changed since I used to use it years ago:( I used to swear by it, but now they are losing condition. I think I am going to try the old fashioned way of a mix of oats, barley and wheat all rolled as I have the facilities to mix my own and roll it. I only feed mine a small...

It took me 3 attempts before I thought it was understandable:lol: Animals self selected herbal medicine is facinating, they can teach us so much if we let them:love:

Looking at it from a different angle oak leaves are a centuries old remedy for gastric complaints, indeed I deliberately feed them to sheep and goats with scours (never done so with a bun as never had one scour). Now I'm not saying to let him carry on eating them but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't...

He's got Dutch markings, but dutch have uppy ears. I think you need to send him to me, a definite Geoff's people's rabbit:lol:

Thank you :love::love: I must admit it has devastated me, but I am taking comfort in the fact if it wasn't for Geoff I never would have started my teeny rabbit rescue. So Hele, I look forward to meeting you on Wednesday and shall be making that trip (I have hitched a lift on more cows than I...

So sorry to hear you lost her, Binky free little Yuki :love::love::love:
