Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

[BY Bob]

I'm up for going down Ned and Lucky memory lane anytime.

It was a wonderful time here at FBA.

A rabbit in peril...?

My friend has a doe (female rabbit) named Charity. She recently had a litter of eleven kits.

Now just what is the problem here?

You see the healthiest litters are of 3 or 4 kits. Now with eleven there will be always someone missing out on it. I received a call from my friend saying that hey, I have a rabbit that's dying of malnutrition, another two have already died of that kind of thing. I agreed to take the rabbit. He's sitting in a box next to me, wrapped in some spare rabbit fur and I'm feeding him rabbit formula (goatmilk + whipping cream) and he seems to be perking up.

phew. But if any of you know what else to do to help this young kit, please pipe up.

Best of luck. I have no experience with baby bunnies. You are a real sweetheart trying to help this little one.

This is @featherhead007 we are talking about. He is master of puns and play on words.

They will learn.

Keep him warm, keep him close to you. Don't get attached to him until you're sure he's going to make it. Feed him often.

Awwwww

Alex and Bob know what I like BR and wattles

Why don’t I have any BR you ask? Well good question! I guess because I never had the opportunity to get any.

But not to worry folks - a BR is in my future it seems. My nieces hens will be here soon enough I am told - her name is Larry

Well and why not, seems I have had boys called Roxanne and Martina, so why not a hen named Larry

I'm so happy for you. They are great chickens!

Probably worth starting a thread. I know there are lots of experienced rabbit folk on BYC.
