My husband and I recently rescued a pure bred female rex from a local breeder who is moving, and had her in some pretty bad conditions. She has been kept in a cage the size of her body nearly her whole life, had very bad sore hocks on all of her feet which we are currently treating, and hyperthyroidism which means she has an active thyroid and must eat and stay active more than most other rabbits. She is two years old and her name is Lucy.
