Hi guys..... This is my pet Liew Lien. He hides in his hutch in the dark most of the time... and he plays in the attic of his cage and takes his rest there at times.

I am currently feeding him unlimited oxbow essentials for young rabbit, timothy hay and alfafa hay on rotation. But he is just 265grams. We brought him to the vet for checkup and the vet told us he is under weight and too small... how can we increase his weight to 800gram - 1kg???

nice enclosure. where did you buy it?
maybe will be too small for him in a few months time.
how you handle ventilation issues?

Hi Zenix,

Thank you for the compliment. I actually built it myself. I think he is rather small as he is a dwarf breed. But i was thinking... if he ever grows bigger i will expand the hutch. I installed wirings on both end of the hutch for ventilation. The roof is removable just in case... and i allow him to come out from the hutch freely so that he can roam ard the apartment. I will only keep him in when i go out or go to bed... smile.gif

Your hutch is really nice! Looks elegant and expensive... Was it hard to make?

You let him roam the apartment? Does he poop/pee everywhere in your apartment, or were you successful in litter training him? He's super adorable, how old is he? Is he an English Angora mix?

So many questions haha sweat.gif But your bunny looks so contented, so wanna know your secrets tongue.gif

Hello Mizu,

Thank you for your compliments. I'm really flattered smile.gif

Yes, i let him roam freely in the apartment and i have toilet trained him. Normally he poop and pee in a plastic toilet in his own hutch. BTW, i added a plastic toilet in the hutch.

He is about 5 months old now. And yes, he is an English Angora Mix. If you would like to know how to toilet train your bunny, PM me smile.gif And have a great day ahead!

That cage looks like it's a load of fun to play in! Gosh, even I feel like exploring it  rclxm9.gif Seriously awesome.

I understand that he's a dwarf mix as well? So it's normal for them to be so small at that age...? He is seriously very small... my Lionhead was twice that size at 5 months, but of course, she was a Lionhead. tongue.gif

Since her passing, we've had a big gap in our home where she used to be sad.gif So we ended up buying a new rabbit to love. Mine's an English Angora mix too - this is Lola  wub.gif

Super-fluffy and super-cute! You can't see her eyes most of the time and she keeps bumping into stuff when she's out and about, so we keep her under supervision at all times when we let her loose. She loves to hop around in the garden! I can't wait when she gets bigger and gets that awesome grumpy yeti look.

Maybe like this?
Haha~

She's really well-behaved too. Not litter-trained (yet) but she doesn't pee or poop on me even if I hold her for more than half an hour at a time, or let her have floortime. Right now I'm feeding her my Lionhead's Oxbow adult rabbit food, but I know that I need to get her the young rabbit food instead. Will be getting that as soon as I have the moolah  rclxub.gif

And yes, expect a PM from me soon about the litter-training!

Your bunny is really adorable.... Mine has grown up and he is now double his size now. And i have been monitoring his weight every week. Past few weeks he stopped putting on weight and this could be the max size.

I am feeding mine timothy and alfalfa on a rotational basis. 2 X timothy and 1 X alfalfa to complete the cycle. Every alternate day, i feed him oxbow palette for young rabbits. And once a day, i feed him a teaspoon of champion mix by beh & yo. smile.gif

Is the champion mix the same as the Show Rabbit Feed pellets? I'm feeding my two-month old bunnies with strictly alfalfa since they're still so young.

By the way, what shampoo do you use for your bunny? How often do you bathe him?
*
Yes you are right... Anyway, i used to bathe my rabbit like 1 month once but he subsequently develops skin problem because of that. Maybe i did not dry him well enough. I brought him to the vet like for more that 4 times in order to treat that. If your rabbit isn't really dirty... it's not advisable to shower them.

I stopped bathing for him ever since and now he is free from skin problem. Oh btw, they wont get stinky... they normally smell of hay.....
