Rabbit is strange in the evening but normal again in the morning?

Hello, my rabbit, who is about 3 years old, lives outside with my other rabbit in a large hutch. He has no pre-existing conditions and is always very excitable and playful. The evening before last, he suddenly became very quiet, was breathing faster and wouldn't move from the same spot. The next morning, everything was back to normal and he was doing great. The next evening, everything was fine too. This evening, however, he's behaving the same way again. I picked him up for a moment to check him over, but he didn't like it and he showed it (which is typical for him). What could it be? Exhaustion from the day and all the playing? Or shock? Although that wouldn't go away the next morning, would it? I'm urgently asking for your help and your experiences.

best regards

If you say it only happens for a short time, it could already indicate stomach problems, the pain in the morning probably being gone again. To find the mistake, you have to know your feeding.

Or, your rabbit feels safer at night and therefore only shows weakness. I also have such a rabbit: during the day he behaves completely normally, while in the evening the teeth are crumbling. It's still in the rabbits as escape animals.

Either way, I'd go to the vet. The doctor is only necessary if the rabbit does not eat for hours.

By the way: I would advise the emergency veterinarian by no means Go! Worst advice I've ever heard. Leave the sick rabbit at the partner animal – otherwise the poor animal has more stress when it is suddenly alone. And if it were a contagious thing, the other rabbit has been there for a long time.

Hello

If he sits there, it can indicate various diseases. Of course, that doesn't have to be sometimes making rabbits funny things, but that's quite obvious.

I'd checked him through with the vet today.

Greetings I hope I could help you

Is he in the coat change? Then intestinal problems could be the cause. Feeder flaxseed

When he gets relaxants and painkillers, you can gently massage the intestines to release the ecstasy

This trembling could indicate intestinal problems, because food always takes about the same time to get digested in the margin and pass through the intestine, the phenomenon that you always notice in the evening.

From the doctor, I'd say.

Rabbits have a different digestion than us humans and should also have 24/7 access to food. Your theory doesn't reveal to me.

Well, as the questioner now knows I've been right, that my theory for you is not sloppy can be good, I come from a rabbit breeding family, we had hundreds of animals, and I therefore know myself with patterns from

I am not talking about malnutrition, but of (a) ration (b) blurred feed (c) yeasts (d) rapid feed changes, etc.

I asked you in my own contribution – a response from you did not come. In addition, most digestive problems in rabbits are "humanized".

I don't want to argue with you, but I just want to say that the food doesn't always take the same time to pass the intestine – because of the pot stomach.
Rabbits hardly have any muscles there, and if nothing comes from above, no baskets can be put off at some point.
So if the rabbit gets a stomachache only in the evening, it means to me that the rabbit hardly eats and bleeds over the day, so that the food pulp cannot be pushed further.

But you're right, it doesn't change at the end result. I didn't want to start a big debate or attack you personally. I would just like to point out to the questioner that this is not normal and indicates a mistake in attitudes.

what did you do?

My own contribution is written and just explains the subject mentioned above.

I have never claimed that the rabbit gets only early food, aren't my animals, and I can't know THAT, I've just gotten into it that the problems only occur in the evening and that fits the symptoms, you just confirmed me again, and specialist knowledge is expert knowledge of how our breeding was you can't know, so I'm not going to let myself down, fact is I knew what was going on and could help?

I don't want to deny that there were no digestive problems, only your explanation is not true.

After all, rabbits have a pot stomach. If your rabbit is only fed early (as you claim), the stomach content does not come into the intestine and ferments in the stomach. Consequently, it comes to gasification – life-threatening, since rabbits hardly have a possibility to get rid of the gases.

And breeding has nothing to do with loving attitude for me.

Okay, that's good, yes I immediately thought about the gut as you described this cycle, my parents were rabbit breeders for a long time, I had not only one animal but several hundred over the years, so I was almost clear. Listen to everything the doctor says and very important the animal no longer takes up by hand

No thing, yes I would be interested the people rarely report back, then by morning, good night

As I said, if there are intestinal problems, everything is good in the stomach…so a digestion takes 4-6 hours…and the AA has to stop, then the problems come out in the evening when it eats in the morning

Now you need to know that, do you think your animal will last until Monday? In any case, the two are now segregated once something is contagious, otherwise both are ill

If it were my rabbit, I would have gone to the vet, but I don't have one.

Hi.

That sounds very funny and that's why I'd take him to the vet.

I hope this doesn't sound like shit, but don't you just read a new rabbit? Or do they bind to them? What's not that long, are they?
