Description
Baby rabbits. Will be 8 weeks soon. Looking to rehome them; I thought I could keep them all, but I found they are more work than I anticipated. So I am keeping mom and maybe one baby. $40 each. Male and female babies available. There is a whitish one, one that is bluer than the others, two yellowish ones, and three brownish ones. They looove to run around when I let them out of their house. They definitely get the zoomies, so cute. They are not scared of my feet at all, and they won't run away when I walk up to them or when I make loud noises around them. But, they definitely will run away from my hands since they associate my hands with being picked up. I have tried to resist the urge to cuddle with them so that they will stick around and let me pet them. Two of them like to cuddle more than the others. I have read that rabbits will get more affectionate as they age. I hope this is true. The reason that I am not keeping them all is that they are not at all litter box trained when you have that many rabbits together. They will pee in their litter box, but they will poop everywhere in the cage, so I have to clean the cage floor daily. I am running through too much bedding as well... If you are thinking of taking one, I will tell you how I am currently caring for them so you know what you are getting yourself into. I am keeping them in a Country Road Barn Ranch Chicken Coop which I got at Rural King for a little over $200, and I believe it would be sufficient for one to two rabbits. It has lots of floor space for two litter/nest boxes on the floor, and it provides adequate ventilation. This fits inside my house, but your floor space may not be able to accommodate such a large enclosure inside. They get daily time outside their cage for two-three hours. I let them out when I get home from work and put them back when I go to bed. Usually a treat or nap time entices them back to their cage. For litter box bedding, I have tried different things, and I have found what I like the best. I am using a cat litter box with cat litter as a thin base. On top of that I mix wood shavings and Carefresh together. Carefresh and cat litter absorb the most, and the wood shavings eliminate the ammonia. I believe that the box could be changed every other day with one rabbit, but it would need to be changed every day with two rabbits. (yes-expensive) Hopefully, you are still interested even though I have just informed you of how much work a house rabbit is... :) Give me a call if you want one!
