I don't know if maybe someone can link me to something that would help more, but I just adopted a 4 month old netherland dwarf. Don't know the gender yet, but the bun's name is Zero. Zero is a very curious and mischievous bunny. I have read somewhere that you are never supposed to punish or yell at a bunny. The exact words I read were, "Rabbits live in the moment" and if you yell at them you are breaking their trust...etc. Is this true?
Anyways, I created a large playpen for him out of cubes and Zero always tries to find a way out and shake the cubes. Now, I have provided him with a bundle of toys inside so I shouldn't see that he is bored. I go in there and play with him a lot but he will still try to get out.
Also, when I hold him he will be nice for about five minutes and then start to nibble me and dig. At this point I usually put him down, but is that the right thing to do? I have never had a baby bunny like this and I want to make sure I am properly training this bun to be the best friend I know he can be. Any help or references would be wonderful and I thank you all for taking the time to read this in advance
