Your rabbit very adorable, 1month 1week is slightly early to leave mama. Your bunny will do better using alfalfa hay as your main hay, you can use timothy hay as well. You can also use Mountain Grass from America Pet Diner, your bunny will love it. You can also feed a high quality rabbit pellet which will produce good result for your bunny over all health and grow.

i'm trying out bermuda grass for copter now.
what u experts think about this grass?

first of all happy belated bunny year to every rabbit owner here.
Somehow, my two rabbits who at first won't get along and fight, suddenly get a long just fine, grooming each other and hang out together. must be the charm of the bunny year.

just wondering y my baby dont touch the alfafa hay at all? Got her some toys as well but all can be eaten..now dont really seen her eating the pallets i give..

You should get 2 months old (8 weeks). But it is alright. Below 6 months give alfalfa and make sure mix with Timothy Hay also.

Above 6 months Timothy Hay or other grass hay.

Bermuda grass is also a type of grass hay. As long as copter eats, everything is fine.

Just make sure he/she touches any other grass hay. get good quality pellets as well. Avoid anything with coloring.

hmm, yeap got her OXBOW Alfafa Hay's ...

but she seems not interested in it at all, cos i put it inside the metal ball for hay storage, but she didnt touches it at all..

now even the pallets she is not touching..

should i bring her to the vet for a check?

Oh Oh.....doesn't sound good.

How old and if she is pooping/pee-ing?

dont put it in a ball yet. the ball is just for fun one. just lay it in a box or cage for easy access.

maybe she is a little too small still. or getting to know the surroundings.

Today morning i check still got poop..but now nv poop..my feeding water bottle keep leaking on the tray so make the whole newspaper wet..just changed a better bottle for her ady..my mom gave her kangkung only 1 in the morning when i m asleep..cos yest i still saw her eating pallets, then now no ady..


Really afraid she is hungry, i took out the ball ady, and put at her feeding bowl but she still not touching any foods at all..

hmmm. doesnt sound good but im no expert. hopefully sangterap will reply soon.

anyways. my bunny is very choosy one. he only wants to eat the show rabbit pellets and not the oxbow pellets.

i mix them together, he also can pick out the show rabbit pellets and only eat the show rabbit ones. LOL.

Vegetables for young bunnies is a huge NO NO NO for me. Kang Kung is worst.

Can you please stick with feeding Timothy Hay and rabbit pellets for now? I would suggest that you get a bottle of Rabbit Nutri-Drops feed it 1ml per 3 lbs body weight or add to water accordingly. You should also get American Pet Diner (APD), Critter Be Better Probiotic pellets. That is good for its stomach.

I suspect your little bunny is still too small. Nutri-Drops can be fed to even 1 day old baby rabbits so making it very safe supplement. You must make sure your rabbit gets enough water. Monitor through the water bottle that you are using (provided that it is not leaking). When a rabbit stops eating/peeing/pooing, hydration is the most important thing.

Sangterap! You are on Newspaper!!!!

hmmm, abby the rabbit is better today..

ate alfafa hays yest nite after i cut & put inside her feeding bowl.

today checked her poop, only 1 biji...got pee

changed her feeding bottle to leak proof, no more leaking..

Sangterap!!!!

I love your rabbits....

What do you feed them with...

My Barney...is free to roam around the house...I don't know if Barney is a male or female...

Barney only poo and pee in the cage..

He had mites when my son took him home. Now all gone took him to the vet.

Hi rabbit lover.
Please allow me to ask for some guide. If i have two bunny, male and female, who should i bring to neuter? Can advise?
Any recommended vet for neutering rabbits?

Many thanks~

Thanks for the compliments Funky Milo, my rabbits are on APD and Pro Optimum pellets exclusively. And lotsa HAY too.....

Glad u got the mites sorted out..

Hikaru,

Best combination is neutered buck and intact doe. Castration is much more straight forward and cost a little lesser than spaying.

Good luck!

That's good news!

Rabbit have major molt once every year. No months in particular. They have minor molt every now and then.....

I've been seeing 'Woody Toy' and 'Teddy Bear' rabbits for sale - but cant seem to find any information on these 'breeds' - are these distinct new breeds, or just mix of a particular breed? Sorry if this is the wrong section, but dont know any other thread to ask this...

how to control my rabbit for not being choosy? i cut the alfafa hays into smaller pieces + pallets, but she only dig n choose all alfafa hay's ONLY

yeap, but "teddy bear" kinda hard to find..i got myself a teddy bear a.loop - female, cant find another 1 yet..but teddy bear is very manja type, loved to be carried
