My two don't have bad breath, and neither does my rabbit.

I assume it is abnormal, but I am not sure. Some GP experts will know. . . soon.

Bad breath could mean a bad tooth although don't quote me on that as not 100% sure but i know thats the case with most animals, if you can take a quick peek in there and have a look see if you can see anything otherwise it could be something quite simple like his diet maybe somethings not suiting him, i'm sure its something quite simple though and if your worried get him checked out at a vets, i'm sure someone else will be more helpful

i did add some romane (sp?) lettus to his diet....maybe it's giving him an upset tummy....or he may be still getting a bit or two of that questionable hay...altho i am trying to weed thru it.

he nipped on me again today while i was feeling around his mouth...it "looks" ok.....will keep an eye on things...

thank for everyones imput!
