My bunny Candy

Question
My baby bunny Candy is only 4 years old.  She was fine a few weeks ago but as time went by, I've noticed 2 scabby bumps have started to grow on my rabbit's ear and eyelid.  She also has lost some weight but she has been eating daily and getting an excellent amount of cool water.  She gets fresh veggies from my family garden and its washed well. What do you think is wrong with her?

Answer
Hi,

not examining her, but by what you say, it appears she has some kind of infection.

Rabbits do not just 'get better' with something like this.  You need to get her in to your regular, good rabbit vet for proper diagnosis and real prescription medicine (that is safe for rabbits) to treat the infection.

If you don't have a good rabbit vet (not all vets are) go here:
