new baby pics…

[charlie82]

These little guys are literally changing by the hour!! They finally abandoned the nest yesterday and discovered how to binky…..soooooo cute!!!!  I went and sat in the playhouse with them and they were so hard to keep an eye on giving each one ran in different directions and they are very adventurous!

They now sleep in the pet carrier box that is in there, and I have already spotted two potential troublemakers….. The are so sweet and friendly and love being stroked, they also like to lick my hands and climb all over me. Going to be hard giving them up

 

Sorry about photo quality, didn’t have autofocus on and it was hard taking pics when they literally do not sit still!

What a lovely bunch they are!  I love how baby bunnies lie together in a huge fur pile when they sleep.

o_____o Those are the cutest little morsels I have ever seen. I wants to eat them.

(And by eat I mean scoop up in my arms and hoarde and cuddle and glare at anyone else who wants to see them.)
(And kiss their darling little ears.)
(And put them in my pockets.)

they are just so cute! There are six altogether and love being fussed over. I have got my hands full though. They are venturing outside into the run now and today one was trying to escape!

Is it ok for them to eat veg? Tonight when I gave mum her tea they all ran over and started to nibble on the greens…is that ok?

[osprey]

It is fine that they start nibbling mom’s food, just be on the lookout for poopy butt if they eat too many greens.  I have had to start feeding Marilyn her greens when the babies are out playing, otherwise they eat too much of it and leave cecals everywhere.  When the babies were little I could feed mom her greens on her shelf, but now the babies can get up there so I separate them.

he he…sadly they all have a new home lined up ….But you can gladly come and take my little fluffball lionhead doe who is turning into an absolute horror!! Looking at these little babies at four weeks I think she couldn’t have been much more than that when I got her given her size. Now she is around 11 weeks or so and is SUCH a madam. My houserabbit George has taken a shine to her but she totally bullies him and beats him up…she’s literally a quarter of his size…. I need her neutered asap!!! ha

[JK]

Hey – What ever happened with the previous owners who claimed they wanted the buns back? Sounds like that has died down?

[Beka27]

that’s awesome you have homes lined up already!  yeah, like knowltons said… what are your family members saying now?

Hi,

 My Aunt is not the slightest bit interested in the baby rabbits, but my cousin is. I have brought her over here a few times..would bring her here more but it’s a 45 minute drive to get to her house.  She is now a rabbit enthusiast and eager to learn and take care of them properly. I’ve been educating her on rabbit welfare/care/behaviour etc and lectured her on the importance of neutering and vaccinating etc. It must be having an effect because my other aunt who I speak to regularly says I’m all she talks about…that and the rabbits. She has been very practical about the situation and I was impressed when I allowed my neighbours two young sons to come and look at the babies and she proceeded to give them an educated lecture on rabbits and even told them they weren’t good pets for children, didn’t like to be picked up etc….

We bunny proofed her garden and I allowed Thumper to go home. I feel a lot more relaxed about it because I am able to oversee that he gets everything he needs etc…my aunt did actually listen when  told her what she should be feeding him and has been buying fresh herbs etc… He seems happier and gets out every day and put back away on a night. Tanisha (my cousin) seems to have quite a way with them. Sophie is quite aggressive towards me yet is so docile around Tanisha and goes up to her to be petted when she comes over. I asked if she was happy for me to keep hold of Sophie until the babies are weaned and she has been spayed and she came out with ‘Yes, I think that’s best because I don’t want to cause her or her babies any unnecessary stress’. I’ll then try and bond them again. She is ten and I think her coming here and seeing how I look after my rabbits has really had an impact. She even said when she is older she wants to have a similar setup and keep her rabbits the same way. Originally she said that her friend wanted two of the babes which I wasn’t prepared to do, but now she said she thinks it was a bad idea because she knows that more often than not children will grow bored of them. She said when she first got her rabbits (from a pet shop) she wasn’t told any of the information I have given her and she didn’t understand how much of a responsibilty they were, now she enjoys the responsibilty.  I couldn’t keep Sophie and Thumper away from her because it would break her heart, and if it means that I have to continue to take some responsibilty in ensuring their health and wellbeing for the future then I don’t mind doing so.  Only problem is now I’ve made her as neurotic as I am…..she rang me yesterday panicking because Thumpers hair was coming out when she petted him….he is just moulting 🙂

[JK]

Well what a turn around! It’s fantastic that you have had such an impact. As long as you still have your hand in the pot (or whatever that expression is!) for awhile that’s really good. You have done an excellent job educating them and you should be very proud. Just make sure that if things don’t look as bright in the future that they know you are there to help. Great job and I will keep my fingers crossed that they really have changed their ways.
