frostbite on rabbit's foot

[Chickenlover0810]

How do you keep them from chewing up the mats?

plastic mats

Could you maybe explain what your rabbit's paws look like? I think urine scald or sore hocks would be much easier for a rabbit to get than frostbite.

i can get you a picture

That looks like severe sore hocks

It doesn't look like frost bite to me. I agree it's probably sore hocks.

last year it looked like it had some black spots, this year a little as well
i just wondered if the black spots were a scab or frostbite

Poor Bunny. He needs to get off the wire. He is getting very sore feet. Those are scabs/callous and the wire seams to be wearing off his hair on his feet or that's from him licking his feet.
Hope you can figure out a better solution to his pen..
My Bunny lived in a concrete bottom pen and used a litter box to poop and pee inside. Plus she lived in my chickens Coop when she had babies and I had no chickens.

We put down plywood over half the wire. You need to clean on a regular basis if the urine and poop builds up too much. We also put down thick hay in winter over the wire parts. I hope with just a few changes your rabbit will start to heal.
