Aww Kim I'm so sorry about Carmen! I hate it when that happens! If it's any consolation, Opie, Sadie and Jax are thriving and the best behaved ducks out there. Everyone else can be loud and make messes but not those 3. Maybe it's because they were among my originals so my heart is with them (and Sunny) the most!
On another note, we have a bunny, Gizmo that's been behaving very strangely. First he stopped eating. I thought maybe it was because his food might have been stale, even though the other bunny Elvis has been fine. So I brought him into the house a few days ago, changed his food and he still didn't eat right away. But now he's eating like he always has. However, when he's let out to run on the porch, he'll run for a few mins just fine, then flop completely over. Sometimes he'll do it in his enclosure without running too. He seems happy. He still asks for his cuddles when we open the door, he still eats like crazy and he poops and pees just fine. So who knows. So I called a friend of mine who is a vet instructor at MSU and he said sounds like a neurological issue which is what I was thinking. I don't know how he could have gotten that though. But a lot of people have held him so who knows. So I've already had the talk with my daughter that if he gets worse we aren't going to let him suffer. He's a very good boy and so far he seems fine except for the occasional flopping over. I'll keep an eye on him.
