Beware of the Hormonal Prairie Dog!

Well, it finally happened. I have been very careful since getting my two male prairie dogs Booboo and Nicky. But yesterday, Nicky bit me very hard on the joint of my index finger when I was trying to reach for Allie. Perhaps he was trying to protect her. Around this time of year, male prairie dogs undergo rut, and their personalities can be very nasty. Neutering is highly recommended, I'll either do that, or rehome him. I haven't decided yet.

As for my rabbits, Sophia and Yuki are now at 5¼ pounds. My adult male Netherland dwarf Rex, is only 3½ pounds. Here are Rex and Sophia together.
