Dutchess - 2012-10-24
Hi, my name is Dutchess, I'm a 1 year old netherland dwarf bunny and I keep scratching and biting at my neck right under my chin and my mom is getting very worried about this behavior and my health. I went to the vet for this issue before and got some medicine (which I hated to take) and it cleared up after a few weeks and new fur grew back, but now I'm at it again. What would you suggest my parents do to help me with this situation?

Hello, Dutchess andf I am sorry you just aren't 100% but I think you should have your parents take you back to the vet. Medicine obviously hleped but have him throughly check to make sure no ingrown hairs or bites or other irritations that can be causing this. You can also tel your parents they can give you a carrot or a couple of cheerios right after you take your medicine and that takes some of the yuk taste away.

Hi Charlie sorry to bother youu again. I have the beautiful Holland Lop Bunny she is about 5 to 7 mos old. We went on vacation for a week and left her with family friends who raised bunnies she was well taken care of and I wrote down her whole schedule. We picked her up yesterday and she won't let us hold her and If we do she's biting like crazy and peeing and pooping like crazy on us. This is not normally what she does to us peeing yes. Does she just have to get use to these surrounding again and us or could there be something wrong? We did bring back a lot of gifts for her. Also I have bought her many rope chew toys and she ends up eating them. We tried the Apple wood sticks and other bunny wood toys she won't bite them. Please help Thank You Charlie Have a Great DAY Marie

Hi how's it going. Sounds like your little one has come into puberty - a teenager with hormonal problems. She would have achieved puberty around this age regardless of where she was but the scent of other bunnies/babies and boys is a definite signal. One teen is fine but a bunch together gets interesting. I would suggest that you have your bunny spayed for best pet results. Hormonal problems just no fun. Probably nothing wrong but is it possible that she could be pregnant? Stuff happens but otherwise just puberty. Enjoy - fun isn't it. Daughter came to my house with her favorite bunny and so did my grandson. Two different breeds and they had fun and they had babies. I got blamed for this and I didn't do it.

Thank You so much Charlie. I am having trouble finding and exotic pet vet. The one she goes to can care for her but he is not a exotic vet. I live in NY so I am still looking for referrals I dont want to take her just to anyone. Charlie I was told that is shortens her life if we have her spayed is that true because she is our baby and part of our family. It scares me at the thought of having her put under I have fears something bad will happen and me and my daughter cannot handle this. You r all so funny about your daughters bunnies I would say that got along great LOL!!!!!!!:)))) Thank YOU Marie

Hi again. To the best of my knowledge and have been told that spaying lengthens the life of a bunny. Now whether getting pregnant shortens the life so spaying lenghthens it, I am not sure. Yes, it is hard to find a vet that does exotics and actually one that does it and just didn't take a course for the weekend. You might try contacting Fish and Game or Animal Control as they might know (usually do) a good vet. Good luck - and enjoy.

I just bought a pet rabbit from a feed store. He was the last one. He seemed so calm and easy to hold so I bought him for my two boys. (On sale for $14.99) When I got home I wanted to find out what kind of rabbit he was so I researched online. The feed store guy wasnt sure what kind he was. So, I came to find he's one of the rare Cinnamon Rabbits! So cool!

I bred my mini rex doe with my holland lop buck. Was wondering if theres a nickname to call these hybrids. Just like holland lop lionhead hybrids are called lionhead lops or lionlops. Is there a name for mini rex and holland lop cross bunnies?

People have crossed the mini rex with the hollarnd lop but I could not find a 'NAME' for the cross. The ones advertised just say 'Mini Rex and Holland Lop cross'. Maybe you can come up with a name - there are others out there. Go to www.bing.com and enter 'mini rex + holland lop'

I have a rabbit but I am not sure of her breed. We think that she is a mini rex but we cannot tell. Any tips? Also she lives in the same hutch with my purebred Netherland Dwarf, Napoleon. We thought she was a Netherland Dwarf before because she could fit in a gerbil ball comfortably. they look identical both are broken blacks with black around their eyes and ears.

She looks a lot like the rabbit pictured above.
Charlie Roche - 2012-07-29
There really isn't an accurate way for us to determine the breed of your little one. Could be a Rex but it could be a cross and look like a Rex. Much depends on size, fur, coloring etc. If she is a cross - could look like mom or dad or grandparents.

What can I bathe my bunny in? What can I use on him?

You do not bathe a bunny as they are extremely clean and wash their coat similar to a cat. If needed, you can brush them to remove excess or lose fur.

take your bunny swimming, try and keep their ears out of water to avoid problems. my 2 new z's love it and my valvetteen rex hav a blast. obviously make sure the lake or water your dipping them in is safe. if u swim in it they will....this will also give them somethin todo .(grooming all afternoon)
