I let Mocha roam tonight and he moves just like at J Jay Petstation. I think morning weather makes him cant move due to fat body and thick fur. Just found out Beh & Yo dont breed holland lop. They import Mocha from overseas. As I call J Jay Petstation (only found out that from him).
I went to Pet Safari during lunch, a netherland dwarf cost only $150 where ND from Beh & Yo cost $450.

Attach is the photo that I saw this morning. Tonight I put them together at playpan garden and again this action took place. Quickly I take photo as evidence to show u guys. From this shameless photo, can I say Mocha can never mate with Cici?

Sigh.....speechless..............fail rabbit owner.........

Added on September 18, 2010, 9:21 ammocha is back to himself just like at J Jay Pet Station. he keep move here & there this morning even under hot sun. today i try catch him and he speed like lighting. super fast than my rabbit. with his heavy body, the momentum is superb when he bang at other places like gate. i think he adapt himself already. however, his appetite not as good as my rabbit. almost 80% of his pellet he finish ytd night. i separate him with my rabbit as she keep eat his food. Mocha pellet is Show Rabbit by Beh & Yo. My rabbit pellet is Haagen.
600gram Show Rabbit cost near $15 where 3kg Haagen cost near $20.

So much difference. Is it my pellet quality not good that why my rabbit not as meaty and heavy like Mocha? Can advice?

the fattiness probably is due to the breed

Rabbits are most active at dusk and dawn. Afternoon is usually their nap time. That's y they make great pets for people that work during the day.

If Mocha is directly imported, then ur friend got a really good deal. From what I know, HLs imported from overseas cost more than rm1000.

Beh's NDs are expensive cause they come with pedigrees so you know the lineage of your rabbit. Also Beh and Sangterap are recognised breeders under the american rabbit breeders association. Not to say the other rabbit breeders are not good- some are. But u have to watch out for those who will cheat or are money minded. Have to also be careful when buying from petshops. Shops that stuff 20 underage rabbits into a glass tank I avoid at all costs. But that's just my point of view.

Haven't tried Hagen pellets so I cant tell. Did use show rabbit feed when hector was young! Nice, fat and cute. Moved over to Oxbow T when hector turned 6 months. Since your rabbit likes show rabbit feed, why not move her over to it and see if she fattens up.

I like Mocha a lot. Even I let him roam at my garden, he doesn't run from me like Cici. He also come to me when I call him. Just few days with him, I already put my heart to him unlike Cici. He is very different. Hard to explain. I like to touch him, sayang him and look at him. Cham lor, when he back to my colleague, how am i going love Cici? i already ignore Cici and just play with Mocha. Not that I'm berat sebelah, just that Mocha is so different. He just like a dog.

Dont think the food/product influence them, I believe is the breed itself.

Its not the breed, each rabbit has a different personality, just like people. Having said that, please don't stop playing with cici, you're all she has.

anyone has male & female at home?
is female appetite more than male rabbit? i notice mine like that.
the female keep eating where male just don't bother. only go eat a bit and lie down again.

can share ah?

^
i got similar experience
the female eat a lot more,almost non stop untill the food try is empty

thanks for sharing.
in our human world, if female eats a lot..normally guy will siam.....haha...unless she is slim and beautiful...then different story..

this is call plucking..this method efficiently remove molted hair from fluffy rabbits...need to groom them everyday during molting season when they shed their hair and grow new ones...this is to reduce hairball ingestion when they groom themselves coz rabbits cannot digest non vegetable proteins since they are strictly vegetarian
give lots and lots of timothy hay during molting season to increase fiber in their daily food

how do we know it is their molting season?
as malaysia weather is not like western...

what if rabbit eat pork chop?

it could be everyday

that is so funny... how about what if rabbit eat bak kut teh also?

Rabbit won't so stupid to eat meat...they are natural herbivors after all. Once they smell and know its meat, they will just run away.

hi mei leng! long time havent seen u and ur buns here! glad to see that they r both chubby and cute as always
