Apple C***r Vinegar, is it actually beneficial in your rabbits water? In my personal experience of using it long term, it has made ZERO difference in my herd. It has had zero effect regarding urine smell or calcium build up in the urine, fertility or coat health. Some breeders swear by it, and that’s ok. If anyone chooses to use it in their water that’s their choice, but I won’t be using it. I will also say this, if you choose to use it, please use the appropriate amount. 1 tsp per gallon water, and they don’t need it daily. Apple c***r vinegar is acidic, and too much of it can cause health problems such as gastrointestinal distress, mouth and throat irritation, tooth enamel erosion, dehydration and stomach and mouth ulcers.

Let's talk pricing!
What is a rabbit worth to you?
$50? $400? $12,000?
The answer greatly varies for each person, and rabbit. The $12,000 rabbit that sold at an auction might not be worth anything to you, but for that person who bought it, it is. If that price tag of $12,000 upsets you, ask yourself why? You didn't pay for it, so why does that bother you what someone else paid or what the breeder charged? It shouldn't bother you at all, after all it isn't your money being spent, or your years of hard work and breeding and showing, to get to that point to be able to auction an animal for that price. You do not get to decide what someone else charges for their animals, whether it be a $400 rabbit, or a $2,000 german shepherd, or a $1,500 maine c**n, or a $5 million dollar thoroughbred filly sold at auction, or simply a $5 mouse at the pet store.

Some might buy a rabbit based on the amount of 'legs' it has won, and some might buy it based on the breeders name behind that rabbit, some buy for color, some for type, some buy for meat and/or fur, some buy for breeding while others buy for a family pet. As for me, I buy based on type and specific variety if needed. If I ask for the price of a rabbit, and I feel the price is too steep for that rabbit, I will kindly pass if it is not worth it to me. What I am not going to do is be rude and insult the breeder and tell them how to price their animals. When I have a rabbit for sale, I base that on type and quality. Show quality is going to cost more than pet quality. When I price an animal, that price is FIRM, do not insult me by begging me to lower the cost. If I have been raising that rabbit, feeding it and housing it and providing any medical care or maintenance care and spending my time and money caring for it, I will price it however I choose and the right person will come along and buy it. I won't diminish myself and lower the cost to make it easier for you because you want to be a cheap ass and pay the bare minimum. I don't charge an arm and leg to begin with, so chances are if you can't afford one from me, then maybe you don't need it to begin with. My main goal is to make sure each animal that leaves my care, will have an adequate home, a responsible and ethical home, a home who is able to provide the care and basic needs for that rabbit. Let me also say that a $30 rabbit from Rural King, deserves the same love and care as a $12,000 auction rabbit. In our home we love all of our animals, no matter their price tag, the dumped bunny we found roaming around a parking lot gets the same care and attention as the $450 rabbit we bought from out of state.

🐇 ‼️ Let’s discuss floppy rabbit syndrome. What is it? What are signs and symptoms? What causes it and how to treat it. ‼️🐰

Well first and foremost, the initial cause of it is still unknown, tho there are some theories with the most common being that it is from a vitamin deficiency. Floppy rabbit syndrome starts with the rabbits rapidly losing the ability to walk. The back legs are the first sign. It happens very fast, in a matter of hours your rabbit will go from wobbling around like a drunk, to losing all mobility and not being able to hold their head up as well. When I first started my rabbitry journey years ago, I had my first bunny with floppy rabbit syndrome. At the time I had no idea what it was or how to treat it. The tiny little rabbit died in a matter of hours. I asked around and one friend suggested it could have been floppy rabbit syndrome. Fast forward to years later, one of our most loved does got it after she had a litter of babies. I caught it early before she had lost all mobility, and did extensive research so this time I would be better prepared. I read through several sites and stories of people who had experienced it. The conclusion was that it is heavily linked to a vitamin deficiency in the same manner as wry neck in chickens. Wry neck in chickens also causes partial paralysis and mobility issues. Wry neck was something I had experienced when owning our own chickens. So that was something I knew how to treat easy enough. So I bought the selenium and vitamin E and vitamin B and soaked my rabbits feed and mashed it up and mixed the vitamins in and syringe fed her that way. Day 1 & 2 my day consisted of syringe feedings. Syringe feedings and electrolytes and vitamins and probiotics a several times a day. Towards the end of day 2 she was kicking her back legs. Day 3 she was trying to stand and day 4 she was almost fully recovered and was moving around the cage on her own. She started eating and drinking on her own at day 3. This same doe got floppy rabbit syndrome again after the next litter she had. And again, with vitamins she fully recovered. That was her last litter and we never bred her again, not just because of the floppy rabbit syndrome, but also because she never once fed her babies or cared for them and each time they all died. Fast forward to another couple years and another rabbit currently now has floppy rabbit syndrome. Again we caught it early. She was still walking, but very wobbly like a drunk. I already knew that telltale sign and started vitamins that day. This is the end of day 2 and she’s kicking her back legs and lifting herself up. In my experience and the experience of others I have known, vitamin deficiency seems to be the main cause of floppy rabbit syndrome. What causes your rabbit to have a vitamin deficiency? I can’t answer that. My second doe who had it, I do believe her body struggled due to pregnancy and she required extra vitamins, more so than usual. I don’t believe it is feed related, if the feed wasn’t adequate enough then this would cause deficiencies in much more than 3 rabbits. Many people do confuse it with EC, because of the mobility issues. But what I’ve learned is that EC has other signs and symptoms and it isn’t suddenly onset like floppy rabbit syndrome. So in my personal experience with floppy rabbit syndrome, it definitely seems to be from vitamin deficiency and I have had successful recoveries by administering vitamin E, selenium and vitamin B, in addition to electrolytes and soaked feed. Also keep in mind your rabbit can’t move, so they will become cold. I made sure mine were in a cage in my house with plenty of padding, ie bedding or a soft blanket. I didn’t keep mine outside or in their original cage.
