  At about what age do baby rabbits start to leave the nest and start jumping?
  
  I haven’t got the room set up for them yet.

  I’m *thinking* it’s two weeks old when they start becoming mobile. I could totally be off though, they usually wean at 8 weeks.

  I think it’s usually about 2 to 3 weeks when they start to leave the nesting box. 🙂

  I can’t wait; I am going to buy a movie camera so I can film them.
  
  Going to be hard to let them go, I’m becoming too attached.
