LOCK? DELETE? OLD Rabbit Owners- NEW LINK INSIDE

Thank you c:

I have looked into it a little- but an experienced vet not too far from me charges 50-80 dollars for a rabbit neutering... She is the same vet I bring my puppy too also, so she may be an option.

My buck wont be getting fixed. But he wont have a companion nor friend to fight with. He does not like other rabbits.

I am likely stating the obvious here, but have you considered that it might be due to hormones related to being left intact?

Not all rabbits are social animals (towards other animals). It is not always because of being intact. There is no harm in having animals intact or not intact, as long as you are okay with how they act are with you and can stand some of the things they may do for whatever the reason. I had an altered buck that hated all animals, but he was okay with humans. And have an unaltered buck that is just fine with other animals, and one that isn't. It is all based on the rabbit itself in my opinion.

None of what I am saying is meant to be confrontational, please don't take it that way. I am just trying to show that there is always two sides to a story. Life isn't always black and white, it is often grey. All opinions are opinions, ultimately it is up to you to decide what is best.

oooohhh your talking about a buck and doe pairing. I would for sure get the buck neutered.
actually i have tried to pair two does before.... once autumn grew they got along for maybe a month and then i lost all
the work and they started fighting.

I know that it could be. He is my only rabbit for the reason stated and loves being by himself. Loves people just doesn't like other animals doesn't just include rabbits.because mostly jealous reason. He does love baby chicks though for some reason that the only animal he will associate with. He is a rescue bunny dropped off in my friends front yard

That should work. Just be aware its a gamble with any pairing fixed or not.

Thanks I will have a spare pen/cage ready incase they don't get along c:

Guuuuuuuuuuys! Ellie's in her nest box! Been pulling hair and making her nest for awhile now, 'tis baby time! <3

EDIT: Well guys... there was only 4 babies... one was already dead when I got out there, 2 are kind of small, all 3 were cold. I brought them in and tried to warm them up some, Ellie didn't have them in any fur, and the fur was just little bits here and there, not a whole lot, especially not for as cold as it is. There was more fur scattered in her cage then in the box, I gathered up what I could and put the baby in it once I got them warmer. I'm like super worried, considering bringing them inside since one of my hotot does doesn't appear to be bred and I could use her cage, but I'm not sure if it's a good idea to move them to a new cage. I don't know what to do. xc Winter babies just aren't a good idea, at least not when they're outside, or even in your garage. Next time, I think I'll bring her inside like I do with my other winter litters, only reason I didn't was space, and the fact the last harlequin litter seemed to somehow manage to go potty and not get it in the tray a lot of times, and I didn't want bunny pee/poop all over the floor of the house... *sigh*

Edit 2: Well... more bad news... I was all worried about Ellie because it seemed she was still bleeding since she had the babies this morning, and she was acting weird, never once did I think of what was wrong, being what was wrong. Turns out she still had 3 more babies in her, just had them here at like 10:30 PM, so around 12 hours after she had the first 4. All 3 of the new ones were dead, one was still warm and I thought maybe there was hope still for it but I rubbed on it and tried to keep it warm and all and nothing, plus then I noticed part of it's back foot was chewed up... so out of 7 babies today, I only have 3 surviving ones, and 1 still isn't doing as well, the other 2 seem fine though. I just pray they all 3 survive. ;-; Kind of depressed after all this. I had been so excited for this litter....

EDIT 3: Woke up this morning to find another dead... only 2 left now. But both seem to be doing well, at least.
