  Hi Tom…welcome to Binkybunny!
  
  I also have a Nethie named Thumper but he is about 10 months now. I also just adopted Peaches who is a mix…not sure of what but I am thinking maybe english spot and something else and I am not sure how old she is. Hopefully my vet will be able to give me an answer to that more or less in a few weeks.
  
  How long have you had Fred? When you get a chance, can you post pics…we are all suckers for bunny pics!

  Thanks for the welcome. I got Fred when he was 6 weeks. Actually was supposed to get another one, but the Breeder’s husband accidentally sold the one I had paid for and I saw fred and had to have him. She offered him instead, though he would have been a good bit more. She felt bad and told me to enjoy him.
  
  I tried to post a pic but it was too big. Will try again though.

  What a cutie! How much does he weigh? He seems to be a dutch dwarf mix. How is his personality? My Thumper is pretty aggressive though he can be a cuddle bunny too.

  Last vet visit was in April and he was 2.2 lbs. He’s a funny critter. Likes to run in circles. Got him a nice big cage so he can run when I am not home. He likes to sit on my left shoulder, perched like a parrot. He loved nose rubs. Not real personable as far as coming right up to you though. He’ll let anyone reach in his cage to pet him and will let most anyone hold him.

  You know, I tried that and the file was still too large. Might just have to try to take a couple more!
  
  can I link photos right from bucket? I tried and it came up as just a link.

  The way I do it for this site, is I load them on photobucket, then click on the photo, resize for "website’ then ‘save as’ on my desktop and add it from there in the browse section…You can add photos as a link but this site works best if you add them as an attatchment If you link them, then I think we just click on the link to see it rather then see it in the posting.

  and you can link pix from Photobucket directly. You upload the picture to Photobucket and then copy the text in the "direct link" box. Come back over here and click the little yellow box with a picture of a mountain in it. you’ll get a place where you can enter "location of image". Paste the text from the "direct link" box in there, and click OK. Voila! – like this!

  Welcome Tom. Another way to upload pictures is straight from your computer by using the "Photo Attach" section below the text box you type in – you just have to resize the pictures to be smaller than 300 px across.
  
  Fred is adorable!

  Hi Tom, Fred is a cutie. Love the picture with him and the dog tag. Shadow has the same carrot toy. It is not noisy enough for him.
