Thanks so much... they're worth it!

Jasper's history: He was adopted by a woman that I'll call A from a shelter. She wanted to bond him with an already bonded pair. It didn't go well... Jasper was bullied by the other 2 from the get-go. Apparently he was quite traumatized. Then A tried to bond him with a friends female rabbit...

Hello! I would love some input about bonding this pair... this is long, but I wanted to make sure y'all have all the info. Cocoa (in front) was adopted from a shelter in April of last year (2022). She was my only bun at the time, and she seemed lonely - practically begging my cat for grooming...

Our hutches look a lot like the one in your photo, but with the hiding area. There is a removable tray under the whole hutch and on top of that I put a thick layer of newspaper, then a lunch tray (2 for the girls), then more newspaper and bedding on top of that. Usually I just remove the lunch...

This is similar to what we have (materials-wise) but they have a hidey-hole spot that they use as their litter area. Because it's covered it's not particularly easy to get to but we've made it easier with removable trays. I like the open-ness of this, and the box. My current bun has a hanging...

Hello! (If you're upset with me for having bunnies in a classroom, please read the back-story at the end of this post...) I am wondering what the best hutch situation would be for a single Dwarf Dutch bun that lives in a classroom and is allowed free-roam of the class during the day. Also, what...

Thanks for the thoughts! On a whim, I decided that when she started digging on me that I would play with her - or at least try to. We have a game where I hide a few chunks of haystick under her toys in the morning and she has to find them all. Sometimes she gets all of them in minutes. Other...

Her nails have indeed been trimmed! Thanks for the pointer though. :)

So... Cocoa is my 2nd bun. Our first, Pepe, was less affectionate, and didn't engage with us as much as Cocoa does. I learned his cues and we got along swimmingly. Cocoa is just different. She's flat out bossy. I love that in her; she cracks me up! Thumping can happen for any reason (startled...

Thanks for the links! I will definitely check them out! I know that one of our bunnies has free range of the classroom he’s in every day (except weekends 🙁). He stays in the area of the room that has a rug and the kids love having him. The others (a bonded pair) aren’t so fortunate. They do get...

Hello! I am a 2-time bunny owner and so glad to find this forum. (I have had chickens for almost 10 years now and the Backyard Chickens forum has been a literal life-saver for me and our flock.) A sweet little Dwarf bunny dropped in our laps about 7 months ago. He's a long story, but it was...
