Pretty much what the title says. Saw a nice hutch and run for sale on fb, arranged to pick up today. DS was sick this morning so I stayed home with home with him while DH and DSD went to pick it up.
And he;s come home with another rabbit. The story is he met the guy at the farm who explained this rabbit had been left behind by its owner and then run off. Hence selling the hutch. While DH was there, bunny returned. Guy said he was just going to set it free, so DH said he'd take it. sigh. He did call me to ask, I said whatever you think!
So we have another netherland dwarf rabbit, stinkin of shit as is the hutch. she has a cloudy eye injury and if shes been running free and not speyed. Oh god, shes going to have 20 half-wild babies isnt she?
Our 2 dwarves have been scrapping of late, so fluffy one is DEFINITELY being speyed next week. Think this wee black one we;ve acquired needs to see the vet for her jabs ASAP.
Kids have called her Judy Hopps.
Must make a sign saying 'rabbit sanctuary'.
Oh, and she had manky flies on her, tho I cant see mites or fleas.
shes in a carry case just now beside our rabbits indoor cages. fluffy bun is curious, fat bun is nae speaking to this new thing!
is it too early for wine?

No answers (I don't have rabbits) but s*d the Wine, there's a 
emoticon now (gin)
If she's manky (lovely word, I'm guessing you're in Scotland) and fly ridden , have you checked her rump? Bit early for flystrike but , never say never.
And TBH, could your DH have left her there?
They were going to let her run free like the wind and find other bunnies to live with , poor little soul would've been picked off by a fox the same day 
Doesn't help your Hutch situation but you'd have given your DH a 'look' if he'd left her to her fate.
If you get her tidied up , would a Rescue take her if you can't keep her. Explain the situation to them. ?
Good Luck.
Heres Judy! Bathed, well fed and happier! shes just in the carrier until we organise which bunny goes where! (and see how our bunnies react to her!)
I got a message today from the lass I bought the hutch off saying the bunny is about 3, used to be a childs pet and she took her in with guinea pigs when her owners moved away. I dont trust myself to reply.
Good spot on the poops, there were 2 pigs that 'died'. Having seen the empty food bowl and filthy water bottle, I dread to think what happened to them.
Vets tomorrow-you can see her dodgy eye. Apparently caused by a twig when she escaped. She escaped a lot. No more, shes home now!
Thanks! 
Well done Evil on rescuing Judy - she's gorgeous. Hope she settles in well with your two buns.
This kind of thing makes me so angry. I just don't understand how anyone can treat animals in that way - if only I was in charge, there'd be much tougher laws and harsher consequences
