PLEASE HELP! I have a Netherland Dwarf doe named Mascha (6 months old) who was due yesterday. She made a nest this morning and I noticed she was bleeding a lot. Then she started having contractions a few hours ago. Nothing is happening, there's no kit coming out and I feel 2 inside of her. I...

Hello! I have yet another question about Corid... After the Cocci outbreak I had in July, I kept my rabbits on Corid for 2 weeks, then started the 5 days on, 5 days off preventative treatment with 3/4 tsp per gallon. During the first 5 days off I lost a kit who was showing symptoms of cocci. So...

HELP! My Netherland Dwarf was due today (first litter) and she had a stuck kit...when i was pulling it out I realized that it had the umbilical cord wrapped around its neck. I got that one out and after about a half hour she passed the placenta. She has another kit in her... It's been 2 hours...

My 12 week old Fuzzy Lop Phoebe has clear/white mucous coating her poop. I tried researching it a little and it seems to be caused by digestive issues or stasis ?? It has a strange smell...kind of like cigarettes :hu I'm worried about her, and she lives with another rabbit...who seems to be just...

Hello! My 4 month old Holland Lop doe is drooling on the left side of her face. I noticed it yesterday when I was grooming her but I dried it and thought maybe she just got too hot or stressed from the grooming. But I checked on it again today and there is more drool...only on her left side. She...

Hi everyone! Yesterday I found an opened egg on the ground by my rabbits outside. It was definitely soft-shelled and the top of the egg was off, just a few inches away from the rest of it. It was white, and about 1 and a half inches tall. I'm guessing it's a snake...but what kind of snake? I...

Hi! My rabbit herd had a bad bout of Coccidiosis and I've been treating with Corid. Since I've started the Corid I've only had 1 more death and that was this morning. Today is the end of the 5 day treatment-plan but should I do the 21 day preventative too? Is their any harm in doing that?

Hi everyone! I have 2 young Netherland Dwarf bucks (unrelated) one is 4 months old and the other is 7 months. They both have aggressive 'episodes' when I put does in with them. When I go to put a doe in their cages they immediately show aggressive body language and sometimes they'll be nice and...

Hey everyone! I decided to start a journal since i have a lot going on in my rabbitry right now! Gotta go do some chores but i'll finish these questions later! :) 1. What state/province/country are you in and what is your climate like? I moved to Middle Tennessee (from Hawaii) in February...

Hey everyone! I have a 3 month old Holland Lop doe who seems depressed. She lies down all day even when I pet her she doesn't get up, she always has her eyes closed, she doesn't come up to the door to see me anymore...she looks like a dead rabbit in the cage :( She's been acting that way for the...

Hello! Yesterday I had a huge snake in the yard and I can't figure out what kind of snake it was... It was black with golden/red diamonds along it's back...it's belly was black and it had no rattle. It moved really fast with it's head up, above the ground...kind of like a cobra but it didn't...

Hi! My Holland Lop doe had 2 kits last night, one fetal giant and a normal kit. I've never had luck with 1 kit living in a nest by itself...but I have another lop doe who has a litter of 6 kits that are one week old. Is 7 days too much of an age difference to foster a newborn into another nest?

Tonight at around 8 pm my neighbor came knocking on the door telling me that his wife is 1 town over and there's a tornado...he wanted to tell me because he knows I don't have cable and didn't see the news. It was a nice day...90 degrees and humid but seemed like normal summer weather! After he...

I have a 1 year old Netherland Dwarf doe who finished weaning her kits about 2 weeks ago, and she was completely dried up until today. 2 days ago I bought a new bale of hay that is full of blessed thistle, stinging nettle and a bunch of other 'lactation-promoting' herbs. I didn't think anything...

Hi everyone! This is so strange and I just want to see if anyone else has ever had this problem... I have 2 Lionhead does who are mother and daughter. Last month the younger doe (daughter) had a litter of stuck kits and I rebred her, and about 2 weeks ago she had another litter and she did...

I rescued 6 Angora rabbits last weekend that were all very matted and unhealthy. And i think one of them has a bot fly. At first I thought it was just an abscess but it looked more swollen today and I got a good look at it. It's a deep hole and there is something moving up and down in...

Hello! I have an 11 week old Holland Lop doe that currently lives with all 6 of her littermates. She has a weird habit/tick/thing that she does all the time, all day long... She lays, sits or stands there (normally) and she stares into the distance and moves her entire head from left to...

Hey everyone! I'm considering putting all of my Lionhead rabbits in a colony. I have 4 does and a buck, all my does have lived together before and I recently separated them. They're all very laid-back and I think I can make it work! But I have no experience with colony-style rabbitries. Any help...
