This is ridiculous. I've called a few vets in the area, all consider rabbits to be "exotic", so an exam ALONE is $50 (more than an exam for our 50# dog!), not to mention any eye meds and the procedure to have the eye sealed. Good grief. For now I will just watch to make sure she doesn't seem...
I need to pick up some VetRX to keep on hand anyway. I certainly don't want her experiencing any unnecessary discomfort just because it's too expensive to have closed up.
Our Vet, as good as they are with our dog, actually charges MORE to see a rabbit than our 50# dog :P Good to know about full disclosure during vet care; I didn't think about medication rendering a meat animal useless for that purpose.
I've had her for a couple weeks now, the breeder had been rinsing/wiping with water to keep it cleaned, but I haven't touched it, partly to see if any extra care was even necessary. At the time I was still debating if I was going to keep her or process her. I've since decided to keep her as a...

I've been checking, double-, triple- and quadruple-checking the sex of my almost 8 week old bunnies, making sure who are boys and who are girls, and I noticed something on one of the girls that seems very odd. Along the outside of her vagina, on both sides, there seems to be a very deep crease...
Awesome, secuono! Good idea with the fan, too. I talked with hubby last night about the new barn construction, and he had no objections about it...except that now with the attached rabbit runs it might not fit in the littler fenced critter yard >< So, more measuring today to try and figure out...
My husband has the computer programs to make something like this just on screen or printable...do I know how to use it? No, no I do not. Hence the scribbled out, scissored out, taped together rendering lol
