Calling All Rabbit Nutters

Grilling Rabbit?

That would dry it out right? Rabbit is like dry chicken, best when put in the smoker or a soup. It's also delicious when paired with white wine and cream of mushroom soup

I've actaully never had a rabbit before. I've always wanted one and I've done research for over 3 years, and I'm writing an article on pet rabbit care. I've been around lots of rabbits before from animal sanctuaries and farms where I often donate DIY toys that I've made.

Though I'm looking to adopt a bonded pair now. I'm really hoping I'll be able to find a neatherland dwarf, and maybe a Holland or mini lop. I love Rex rabbits too, and I've heard that people with allergies do better with them so I'm on the lookout for a Rex too. I also love Hotots, Jersey woolies, American Fuzzy lops, and Lionheads, though the long haired breeds aren't great for allergies.

Not all people with allergies do better with a Rex.

I'm also allergic to Timothy hay. And like a hundred other things but being allergic to both the rabbit and hay sucks.
When I get my dummies I'm going to use Orchard grass and see how that works. Hopefully they won't be too picky and decide not to eat it lol

I'm highly allergic to all hay. I feel you. Haven't had too many issues with Alfalfa yet though.

So you're allergic to timothy, orchard grass, etc..?

Now I'm wondering if you are just allergic to grass hays in gereral. And since Alfalfa is a legume hay, you haven't had a problem.

Last I had checked on him was about 12 am.
I woke at about 4 and guess who was gone?

I woke the mini up.
We searched EVERYWHERE.

We found him under the nasty dusty stuff stashed under the mini's bed. Hims widdle butt was in the far corner just looking back at us like we were dumb.

We have been hardware clothing more of the cage and used some wood to rig it for the rest of the night.

I can't cut anymore hardware cloth now.

He is grounded.

Did he poopy in your house?

I'm no specialist, but I've done plenty of research and know nearly everything from identifying and treating illnesses, to setting everything up (and what and why to get specific things), or bonding rabbits, etc.

I've also cared or plenty of rabbits before so I do have experience with actaully doing these things. I just haven't been able to get some of my own yet.

I've learned a lot from other BYC members here too, everyone has been so helpful.

Bingo.

If it is grass, dusty, furry, or contains pollen - it'll about kill me.

Same.
I even have issues with random things like nickel, or pineapple, or avocado.
