    Aggression and Genetics

    New development: :barnieWhen I went to pour more pellets in her bowl she attacked the container (not biting). She wouldn't let it in the door. I had to keep pushing her back with it, spilling pellets in the process, but she kept coming at it. Probably be my hand if I didn't have the container...

    Aggression and Genetics

    I haven't given her the opportunity to try anything. So far she has just grunted and gets in front of me when I want to get in her cage. She has tried to 'hit' with her front paws, and she won't let anyone pet her at this time. She's very good about being carried. She doesn't struggle. I...

    Aggression and Genetics

    Should I not consider breeding her then? I don't want to create more bunnies with a nasty attitude.

    Aggression and Genetics

    This may seem like a dumb question to most, but I must ask. Can bunny aggression be passed to the young from a parent? I noticed some behavior from my Havana doe lately. She's been grunting here and there at me, and last week pawed at my daughter's hands as though she was trying to scratch at...

    Guinea Pig Help

    I'm going to be a mean person for a moment. I've been mad about this all day. We had her for four days. The vet felt a mass in her intestine, and says it probably has been there for quite a while. They couldn't get a temperature reading. There is no excuse for her previous owner to give her...

    Guinea Pig Help

    She was being fed Hartz brand when I got her, but I don't like that brand for food so I got her Oxbow. Luckily, I got her in to see the vet today. Hoping its not a serious problem. Thanks for all the advice.

    Guinea Pig Help

    She acts like she's not sure what she's supposed to do with the hay. I noticed she hasn't been touching her pellets lately. Last night she did eat two little leaves from celery (didn't give her the stalk). When I open the door she approaches as though she's expecting food, but I haven't...

    Guinea Pig Help

    I haven't checked her gums or teeth yet. I didn't think it was normal to feel the hip bones so easily, but again, it's been quite a long time since I had one. She had a carrot (untouched), and pieces of other veggies in her cage when I picked her up, but they look like they were at least a day...

    Guinea Pig Help

    So, it's been quite a while since I've had a guinea pig. I just brought one home for the family. I found her on craigslist. Owner was moving, and couldn't/didn't want to take her (not important info, or my business). I don't know much about her as the owner didn't know. I was told she's...

    What Color Buck?

    Her whole pedigree is torts. I would like to put her in a show to see what they think. I really like the chocolate.
