Fluffyif u read this before u read the pm I am so sorry.
Today I went out to a farm myfriend said was advertising baby bunnies. The idea being thatif i saw them i would not want them and therefor would not wanna spendthe whole wknd pining over them.
Got to the farm and hubbywouldnt get out the car so i went up and asked to see them.The owner went and fetched these two babies that were too young to sexand the fur is so shabby im sure its not been long since they grewit.
Anyway i fell in love as ireally didnt expect them to be so small I said i would speak to hubbyand almost burst into tears in the car.
Anyway I went back to get oneasked what it was fed on and was told rabbit mix and carrots but nolettuce.... that didnt really helps so i have mixed a bit if oat treatin with burgess hill for tonight and will pick up some wagg in themorning to try and wean him off.
My big concern is that iforgot to ask how old this baby is? She is smaller than apaper plate, i will send pics but didnt want to disturb hertonight. Is there a chance that they have sold her tooyoung?
When are u meant to sell themand what should i do about the food?
Is there anything i needto monitor a baby for? All our rabbits came from the pet shopat about 3-5 months old and i dont want to disrespect the seller butI'm not sure the living conditions were all that.
I have Jack and Hetti in thesame room but the new baby is in hettis old indoor hutch with fencingaround the hutch so they dont jump on it and scare him/her.She/he seems to be feeding on hay and the mix i have made and looks tohave had a drink but no obvious poops yet?
Any advice desperatelyneeded i know i have 2 young buns but never had one this youngbefore.
