QUOTE(sangterap @ Feb 10 2011, 12:39 PM) 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. hmm, yeap got her OXBOW Alfafa Hay's ...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. 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? |

QUOTE(sangterap @ Feb 10 2011, 04:28 PM) 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..QUOTE(madfag @ Feb 10 2011, 04:30 PM) 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. 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.. |

QUOTE(sangterap @ Feb 10 2011, 11:07 PM) Vegetables for young bunnies is a huge NO NO NO for me. Kang Kung is worst. hmmm, abby the rabbit is better today..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. 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.. |

QUOTE(sangterap @ Feb 12 2011, 12:08 AM) 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..... QUOTE(Ad Hominem @ Feb 12 2011, 12:46 AM) 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... 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 |
