Just because I’m curious ( I know what the average age expectations are but just curious how old yours are )
How old are your current bunnies ?
How old did your past bunnies live to?
Oakley is 5months
Boston is 12weeks
Both of mine will be 8 months on the 13th ![]()
Aurora was born on the leap year 2016
So about 14 months.
Charlie was born December 2015, but the person he came from didn’t know which day, except that it was one of the 20’s.
Boston and Oakley are gorgeous ![]()
Currently, Apollo is about 2 and 1/2, and Luna is a little over 2 years old.
Previously, Bandit was 3 when he passed away, much too young
(ruptured cecum)
Many years before him, Hazel-rah was I think about 6 or 7, I think I had him for five years but don’t know how old he was when I got him. (GI Stasis)
My first bun Alex was only about a year old, after learning about rabbits I suspect GI stasis but can’t be sure as I was young and away from home at the time.
So not the best track record with ages, Bandit was supposed live a long life now that I properly know what I’m doing with rabbits, but it just wasn’t to be I suppose. I’ll check back in in another 10 years when Apollo and Luna are still around ![]()
We do not know Chewie’s exact date, only that it was in mid- September 2016.![]()

Rumball, 10
TimTim, 6
Gooseman, 5.5

Maple, 4 or 5? I didn’t know her age but she was with me for 3 years before she passed away. It’s actually the 2nd anniversary of her passing today.

My Sterling is 10 weeks now. I’m hoping to get him a bun wife soon after his neuter.
Eve and Theo are around nine months!
Both of my current bunnies came from shelters, so their ages might not be entirely accurate. They are both around 6 years old. I adopted one of them 4 years ago, and was told that she was 2. The other was adopted 2 years ago and I was told that he was 4. One of my past bunnies lived to the age of 12.
Licorice is 4 years old today, actually (born in April, chose 6th)! Got him when he was 4 months
Winter is 1 year and a half, got her at five months ![]()
Az – Hazel-rah is the best. Love Watership Down, perhaps my next will be Pipkin :p
Foreverfluffe, could be a Christmas boy!!
Reese’s gotcha 3 yr day is July 3rd
Turns out I’m a whole month ahead on Maple’s anniversary.
Silly me!! It’s May 6.
@Tobyluv, 12 is a great age!! ![]()
Chewbacca just turned 2

Yes, technically Blackberry would have suited him better as he was a broken black. However he was not a smart bunny so didn’t quite fit the personality of either Hazel-rah or Blackberry.
I guess lancelot couldbe much older than 4. The shelter said hd was 2 when i adopted him but when i picked him up they said they didny know how old he was.
Storm will be 2 on September 2nd. As for Tinkerbell, the shelter didn’t know her exact age, but she was found as a released “easter bunny” back in 2014. Because most of the bunnies sold as easter gifts are around a month or two old when they’re being sold, she’s estimated to be born around March or April 2014, so she probably just turned 3.
