Caught him pogging though.

Not a standard Rex, not a mini Rex, but a third more sinister thing: the chompasaurus Rex

I took this past week off of work and the buns have been so happy that I've been home with them so much, but I go back tomorrow and now they're gonna be so sad. 😞 I just wanna stay home with my babies.

Baby buns

Hi, Juno had two baby bunnies on 10 September. Dad was the black otter mini rex, Oreo. The babies are healthy and plump. The colours look to be black self and black dalmatian.

Just want to add that mother rabbits do not abandon or eat their young if the young are held or disturbed. This is even more true for domestic rabbits.

2 days old

All Below is 1 days old

You have been inflicted by bebbies of the bun variety.

Dumpling used to be so shy that he'd run and hide any time I walked in the room, even though he was in the safety of his pen. Now here he is, asking for more pets. 🥰

yesterday was certainly an adventure. pretty normal start but then my friend came over to do some culls. and the VERY first rabbit she put on the gambrel when she cut into it she noticed the doe had milk. 'i wonder if she was having a false pregnancy, because she's here for missing three times in a row.' 'that would suck if she actually got pregnant this last time,' i said, and my friend immediately cut into the body before being done skinning, just to check. and was greeted with a full, wiggling uterus

and thus an emergency post-mortem c-section encured. (pics/rest of the story below the cut)

she cut, i rubbed, and out come two peanuts (lethal double-dwarf gene kits that are unviable anyway,) and two beautiful, living babies, fully baked. a third fully formed normal kit didn't seem to be alive, so it was set aside in the sac while i stimulated the two live ones into breathing properly and my friend texted the doe's breeder to inform her of the surprise.

just to double-check, friend poked the seemingly dead kit and it wiggled, so then we had to emergency cut that one out of the sac and pull it out. because it sat in there for a few minutes, it had a lot of trouble breathing and she had to both do the heimlich on it AND give it cpr (which consisted of basically putting its face in her mouth and puffing gently,) after which it finally did catch its breath and was added to the wiggly squeaky pile of very very lucky kits

because mom was dead, there was no fur to put in the nest, so we took the kinda horrible but practical option of...wrapping them in their mom's pelt for warmth.

but it worked, we finished the job, and the kits have gone home with my friend to be given some colostrum powder (better late than never; i usually keep it on hand but my freezer shit the bed again so i had to toss mine) and are now with a foster mom doing well.

the last time i cut open a doe to a live litter of kits they were a few days too underbaked to be viable and couldn't breathe, so i am feeling very happy about these guys. liek the whole situation sucks; if the breeder had waited just another day or two she would have had both the mom and the litter, but at least in this situation we achieved the best case scenario.

anyway i am already way too attached to these guys and if they don't grow up to do well on the table i will be very sad haha

Halloween Costumes on Sale after Halloween gave me the perfect opportunity to buy this costume I kept eyeing for Snickers and let me just say... he's stinking cute.

Accidentally created the sequel to “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie” called “If You Let Your Rabbit Lick the Spoon with Traces of Dairy-Free Haagen Dazs Raspberry Sorbet on It, He’s Never Going to Let You Have a Moment of Peace until You Let Him Stick His Head in the Whole Pint of It.”

Dumpling the mini rex rabbit is officially a critter!
