Hey all!
I've been browsing around this site for the last couple days, so I thought I'd make myself known!
It's been one week today since I picked up my bunny. He's an all black mini-rex and the cutest thing I've ever seen! I named him Jake, and he already flicks his ears towards me when I say his name.
I've picked up lots of tips and tricks already just from reading the different threads and hearing people's different ideas on certain topics. I know that this forum is going to be a great resource for me as Jake and I get to know each other better!
He seems to be adjusting pretty well - even though I think I got him too young. The woman I got him from raises rabbits for shows, so it seems they are more interested in just producing the next "line" of bunny, that the discards get kind of neglected. Jake was only four weeks old when I got him - she said that they wean their bunnies early. So far he seems alright, I just worry about his nutrition, if he's still supposed to be on mother's milk.
I'm feeding him what is left of the food they gave me. I want to be sure that he's on alfalfa pellets next and he's loving the new alfalfa hay I got him.
So, that's us, so far! I'll try to get a picture up soon - he rarely stays still long enough to snap one!
Thanks already for all the help and ideas you've given me!
