When will rabbits stop fighting?

                   They start fighting at about 6 months old, so keep them away from each other sometimes. One of my rabbits died from fighting. So be cautious.

Please email mochiicecream32455@gmail.com for requests because I have no more ideas. Thanks

How to keep your bunny cool during the summer

                      If it's hot where you live during the summer, here's a way to keep the little guy cold.
                                                          Materials

  1. A plastic water bottle
  2. Water
  3. Freezer
                                                           Steps

  1. Pour water into water bottle
  2. Put water bottle into freezer
  3. Wait for about 30 minutes- 1 hour
  4. Place water bottle next to bunny
Now, this won't let them freeze to death, because it'll melt quickly.

When will the bunnies hop out of the nest box?

                          They'll open their eyes at 10- 14 days old. They hop out of the nest box at 13 to 18 days old. Make sure you clean the nest box at about 10 days old or they'll get a eye disease called " Nest box eyes". The way to help that is to:

  • Clean the nest box
  • Buy a medicine called "Terramycin" oil 
  • Use a warm, damp cloth and rub it on the eyes, gently pull the eyes open THIS IS ONLY IF THE EYES AREN'T OPENED
My bunnies hopped out of the nest box at 16 days old. If they're more than 18 days old and haven't hopped out, but opened their eyes, help them out and get rid of the nest box because they no longer need it. If they HAVE hopped out of the nest, but their eyes ARE NOT opened, immediately go to the vet, because there's something wrong with them.

Think your bunny isn't feeding the babies?

Think again. They only feed them once a day, 12 AM- 5 AM. If you want to make sure, read my article on"How to feed the baby bunnies with the mom's original milk".

How to keep your newborn rabbits warm and secure

                        You want to make sure that you have:

  1. a heating pad or a foot heater
  2. a cardboard or plastic box
  3. soft bedding
  4. a blanket large enough to cover the hutch or cage
  5. the mommy rabbit
I know I'm posting a lot of newborn bunny care, but it's because my bunny just got babies. I'm not a professional, but I'm doing the best I can to help you guys.

Steps to keep them warm

  1. set the heating pad or foot heater on low 
  2. put heating pad in box
  3. put bedding in the box 
  4. place bunnies in box
  5. put box in cage or hutch
  6. place the blanket over the cage make sure you leave a gap so they wont suffocate.

Getting a new rabbit

                                   What you need for a rabbit

  1. Cage or hutch
  2. water bottle
  3. bowl
  4. hay
  5. food
  6. a nice, quiet, and dark spot
  7. bedding
If you are a first-time bunny owner, you want all of these. Make sure you are very delicate with them, too. Also, have a nice, caring nature with your new rabbit.
