Hey guys!
I just got a couple requests for a welcome thread so here you go!
I’m a new bunny mama and I just got Pickles yesterday from a really nice lady who was willing to share him with me
She doesn’t have much time to take care of him but still really cares for him, so I’m doing the best that I can for Pickles and for her!Pickles is almost 3 years old and is not neutered, but he’s never had a problem with spraying. He’s playful and fun & loves his little log that he came with
He’s still a little shy so he’ll hide in his little bed I got him, but when you take him out he loves to hop around and he’s such a curious little bunny! He loves his little fleece blanket and likes to hop around on carpet (he doesn’t like hardwood too much haha) and at night he loves to climb onto my lap and cuddle 
I’m currently trying to switch his diet from pellets + seeds & dried corn (etc) that he has been eating for the past 3 years (the diet his previous owner was feeding him), to timothy hay pellets (eventually will be less and less) and more hay and fresh vegetables
His favourite treats are dried fruits (currently his favourite is dried apples and papaya) and I think I won’t change that.I am planning to get him neutered by January.
Thanks guys!
p.s. attached some pictures for you
Cheers!
New Bunny Mama

I actually have no idea what breed he is! What do you guys think?? Here are some more recent pictures
Picture 1
Picture 2
Picture 3
Picture 4I weighed him the other day and he was 4.2lbs .. He’s now getting more than 2 cups of fresh veggies a day (once at in the morning and once in the evening) and then a little more than 1/8th a cup of pellets for night time and an occasional carrot or bite of strawberry haha but I looked at weight averages and he seems a little chubby so hopefully after changing his diet he’ll back to a healthy weight soon! I’ve scheduled a wellness checkup for him soon too
I’m waiting for the day he gives me a binky!
